§49-25 Construction of chapter. The
powers conferred by this chapter shall be in addition and supplemental to the
powers conferred by any other law or charter. The undertaking may be acquired,
purchased, constructed, reconstructed, improved, bettered, and extended, and
the loan program may be established, and revenue bonds may be issued under this
chapter for those purposes, notwithstanding that any other law may provide for
the acquisition, purchase, construction, reconstruction, improvement, betterment,
and extension of a like undertaking, or the establishment of a like loan
program, or the issuance of revenue bonds for like purposes, and without regard
to the requirements, restrictions, limitations, or other provisions contained
in any other law or charter, including, but not limited to, any requirement for
the approval by the voters of any county. Revenue bonds may be issued under
this chapter notwithstanding any debt or other limitation prescribed by any law
or charter and without obtaining the consent of any commission, board, bureau,
agency, or department of the State, and without any other proceeding or
happening of any other condition or thing than those proceedings, conditions,
or things which are specifically required by this chapter, and the mode and
method of procedure for the issuance of revenue bonds under this chapter need
not conform to the provisions of any other law or charter. The authorization,
issuance and validity of revenue bonds under this chapter shall not be
dependent on or affected in any way by proceedings taken, contracts made, acts
performed or done in connection with, or in furtherance of any undertaking or
loan program by the county authorizing and issuing the revenue bonds, or by the
validity of any such proceedings, contracts or acts, nor shall the
authorization, issuance and validity of bonds issued under this chapter be
dependent in any way upon the due adoption or enactment of any capital program
or capital budget ordinance or resolution or upon the continued effectiveness
of any appropriation made in any capital budget ordinance or resolution;
provided that nothing in this section shall be deemed to permit the application
of the proceeds of such bonds to appropriations which have lapsed pursuant to
the provisions of law or of a charter. Insofar as the provisions of any other
law or charter conflicts with this chapter, this chapter shall be controlling.
