§ 21-45-13. Security for principal, interest, and premium on tax increment bond.
The principal, interest and premium, if any, on any tax increment bond shall be secured by a pledge of the revenues payable to the municipality pursuant to the tax increment financing plan and may also be secured, in the discretion of the municipality, by a lien on all or any part of the redevelopment project and any security by any developer pursuant to and secured by a security agreement. The proceedings under which any indebtedness is authorized or any security agreement may contain any agreement or provisions customarily contained in instruments securing such obligations, without limiting the generality of the foregoing provisions respecting the construction, maintenance and operation of buildings or other facilities or improvements of the project, the creation and maintenance of special funds, the rights and remedies available in the event of default to the debt holders or to the trustee, all as the governing body shall deem advisable; provided, however, that in making any such agreements or provisions, no municipality shall have the power to obligate itself except with respect to:
(a) The proceeds of the bonds and any property purchased with the proceeds of the bonds;
(b) Any security pledged, mortgaged or otherwise made available by a developer for the securing of bonds or other indebtedness; and
(c) No municipality shall have the power to obligate itself except with respect to the application of the revenues from the tax increments; nor shall any municipality have the power to incur a pecuniary liability or charge upon its general credit or against its taxing powers.
Tax increment financing bonds issued under the Regional Economic Development Act also may be secured as provided therein.
The proceedings authorizing any bonds and any security agreement securing bonds may provide that in the event of default in payment of the principal of or interest on such bonds, or in the performance of any agreement contained in such proceedings or security agreement, such payment and performance may be enforced by mandamus or by appointment of a receiver in equity with such powers as may be necessary to enforce the obligations thereof. No breach of any such agreement shall impose any pecuniary liability upon any municipality or any charge upon its general credit or against its taxing powers.
The trustee under any security agreement or any depository specified by such security agreement may be such persons or corporation as the governing body shall designate; provided, that they may be residents of Mississippi or nonresidents of Mississippi or incorporated under the laws of the United States or the laws of other states of the United States.
