§ 3656. Bonds of the authority.  1. The authority shall have the power  and  is  hereby  authorized  from  time  to  time to issue bonds in such  principal amounts as it  may  determine  to  be  necessary  pursuant  to  section   thirty-six  hundred  fifty-five  of  this  title  to  pay  any  financeable costs and to fund reserves to secure such  bonds,  including  incidental  expenses  in  connection  therewith.  Provided, however, the  aggregate principal amounts of such bonds issued to pay the  financeable  costs  described  in  paragraph  (a)  of  subdivision  twelve of section  thirty-six hundred fifty-one of this title shall not exceed four hundred  fifteen million dollars, excluding bonds, notes,  or  other  obligations  issued  to  refund or otherwise repay bonds, notes, or other obligations  theretofore issued for  such  purposes.  Notwithstanding  the  foregoing  limit  on  the  amount  of bonds that the authority may issue to pay the  financeable costs described in paragraph (a) of  subdivision  twelve  of  section  thirty-six hundred fifty-one of this title, the authority shall  have the power to issue up to an additional seven hundred ninety million  dollars of bonds, excluding bonds, notes, or other obligations issued to  refund or otherwise repay bonds, notes, or other obligations theretofore  issued for such purpose, to pay such costs if the county's  indebtedness  to  be  refunded,  repaid or restructured with the payment of such bonds  was originally incurred by the county to pay tax certiorari  settlements  or  assignments  of  any  kind  to which the county is a party. Provided  further, the aggregate principal amounts of such bonds issued to pay the  financeable costs described in paragraph (c) of  subdivision  twelve  of  section  thirty-six hundred fifty-one of this title, which resulted from  certiorari proceedings commenced prior  to  June  first,  two  thousand,  shall  not  exceed four hundred million dollars, excluding bonds, notes,  or other obligations issued to refund or otherwise repay  bonds,  notes,  or other obligations theretofore issued for such purposes. And, provided  further, the aggregate principal amounts of such bonds issued to pay the  financeable  county  costs  described  in  paragraph  (c) of subdivision  twelve of section thirty-six hundred  fifty-one  of  this  title,  which  resulted  from  certiorari proceedings commenced on or after June first,  two thousand, shall not exceed  four  hundred  million  dollars  in  the  aggregate  for the fiscal years two thousand through two thousand seven,  however, of said four  hundred  million  dollars  only  fifteen  million  dollars  may  be  issued  in  the  fiscal  year two thousand six and ten  million dollars may be issued in the fiscal  year  two  thousand  seven,  excluding  bonds,  notes,  or  other  obligations  issued  to  refund or  otherwise repay bonds, notes, or other  obligations  theretofore  issued  for  such purposes. Effective in the year two thousand six, upon request  of the county, the authority shall issue, in the amount requested, bonds  to pay tax certiorari settlements or judgments of any kind to which  the  county  is a party, not to exceed fifteen million dollars; and effective  in the year  two  thousand  seven,  upon  request  of  the  county,  the  authority  shall  issue,  in  the  amount  requested,  bonds  to pay tax  certiorari settlements or judgments of any kind to which the county is a  party,  not  to  exceed  ten  million  dollars.    Whenever  this  title  establishes  a limit on the principal amount of bonds that the authority  is authorized to issue, there shall not be counted  against  such  limit  (i)  amounts determined by the authority as reasonable to be used to pay  the cost of issuing such bonds, (ii) the  amount  of  bonds  that  would  constitute interest under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended,  and  (iii) amounts determined by the authority as necessary to establish  any reserves.    The authority shall have the power from time to  time  to  refund  any  bonds  of  the authority by the issuance of new bonds, whether the bonds  to be refunded have or have not matured, and may issue bonds  partly  torefund  bonds  of  the  authority then outstanding and partly to pay the  financeable costs pursuant to section thirty-six hundred  fifty-five  of  this title. Bonds issued by the authority shall be payable solely out of  particular  revenues  or  other  moneys  of  the  authority  as  may  be  designated in the proceedings of the authority  under  which  the  bonds  shall be authorized to be issued, subject to any agreements entered into  between the authority and the county, and subject to any agreements with  the  holders  of  outstanding  bonds pledging any particular revenues or  moneys; but in no event shall  transitional  state  aid  be  pledged  as  security for or be made available for the payment of bonds.    2.  The authority is authorized to issue its bonds for a period ending  not later than December thirty-first, two thousand seven. The  authority  may  issue bonds to refund bonds previously issued without regard to the  limitation in the first sentence of this subdivision, but  in  no  event  shall  any  bonds  of  the  authority  finally mature later than January  thirty-first,  two  thousand  thirty-six.  Notwithstanding   any   other  provision of law, no bond of the authority shall mature more than thirty  years from the date of its issue.    3.  Bonds  of  the  authority  may  be issued, amortized, redeemed and  refunded without regard to the provisions  of  the  local  finance  law;  provided, however, that the principal amount of outstanding bonds issued  by the authority shall be deemed to be indebtedness of the county solely  in  ascertaining  the  amount  of  indebtedness  the county may contract  pursuant to the local finance law and the  state  constitution  and  the  authority shall not exceed such limitation.    4.  The directors may delegate to the chairperson or other director or  officer of the authority the power to set the final terms of bonds.    5. The authority in its  sole  discretion  shall  determine  that  the  issuance  of  its  bonds  is  appropriate.  Bonds shall be authorized by  resolution of the authority. Bonds shall bear interest at such fixed  or  variable  rates  and  shall  be  in such denominations, be in such form,  either coupon or registered, be sold at such public or private sale,  be  executed  in  such  manner, be denominated in United States currency, be  payable in such medium of payment, at such place and be subject to  such  terms  of redemption as the authority may provide in such resolution. No  bonds of the authority may be sold at private sale unless such sale  and  the  terms  thereof  have  been  approved  in  writing  by (a) the state  comptroller where such sale is not to the state comptroller, or (b)  the  director of the budget, where such sale is to the state comptroller.    6.  As  a condition precedent to authorizing the issuance of any bonds  hereunder, the authority may include in any agreement  with  the  county  such  provisions  as  are  deemed  necessary  and  appropriate including  express provisions regarding compliance with sections thirty-six hundred  sixty-six  and  thirty-six  hundred  sixty-seven  of  this   title,   as  applicable.    7.  Any  resolution  or  resolutions authorizing bonds or any issue of  bonds may contain provisions which may be a part of  the  contract  with  the holders of the bonds thereby authorized as to:    (a)  pledging  all  or part of the authority's revenues, together with  any other moneys, securities or contracts, to secure the payment of  the  bonds, subject to such agreements with bondholders as may then exist;    (b)  the  setting  aside of reserves and the creation of sinking funds  and the regulation and disposition thereof;    (c) limitations on the purposes to which the proceeds from the sale of  bonds may be applied;    (d) limitations on the issuance of additional bonds,  the  terms  upon  which  additional  bonds  may be issued and secured and the refunding of  bonds;(e) the procedure, if any, by which the terms  of  any  contract  with  bondholders  may  be  amended  or abrogated, including the proportion of  bondholders which must consent thereto and  the  manner  in  which  such  consent may be given;    (f)  vesting  in a trustee or trustees such properties, rights, powers  and duties in trust as the authority may determine,  which  may  include  any  or all of the rights, powers and duties of the trustee appointed by  the bondholders pursuant to section  thirty-six  hundred  sixty-four  of  this  title  and limiting or abrogating the rights of the bondholders to  appoint a trustee under such section or limiting the rights, duties  and  powers of such trustee; and    (g)  defining  the  acts  or  omissions  to act which may constitute a  default  in  the  obligations  and  duties  of  the  authority  to   the  bondholders and providing for the rights and remedies of the bondholders  in  the  event  of  such  default,  including  as  a matter of right the  appointment  of  a  receiver;  provided,  however,  that  such  acts  or  omissions  to  act  which  may  constitute a default and such rights and  remedies shall not be inconsistent with the general laws  of  the  state  and other provisions of this title.    8.  In  addition  to the powers herein conferred upon the authority to  secure its bonds, the authority shall have power in connection with  the  issuance  of  bonds to enter into such agreements for the benefit of the  bondholders as the authority may deem necessary, convenient or desirable  concerning the use or disposition  of  its  revenues  or  other  moneys,  including  the  entrusting,  pledging  or creation of any other security  interest in any  such  revenues,  moneys  and  the  doing  of  any  act,  including  refraining from doing any act, which the authority would have  the right to do in the absence of such agreements. The  authority  shall  have  power  to  enter into amendments of any such agreements within the  powers granted to the authority  by  this  title  and  to  perform  such  agreements.  The provisions of any such agreements may be made a part of  the contract with the holders of bonds of the authority.    9. Notwithstanding any provision of the uniform commercial code to the  contrary, any pledge of or other security interest in revenues,  moneys,  accounts,   contract  rights,  general  intangibles  or  other  personal  property made or created by the authority shall be  valid,  binding  and  perfected  from  the  time  when  such  pledge is made or other security  interest attaches without any physical delivery  of  the  collateral  or  further  act, and the lien of any such pledge or other security interest  shall be valid, binding and perfected against all parties having  claims  of  any  kind  in  tort,  contract  or  otherwise  against the authority  irrespective of whether such parties have notice thereof. No  instrument  by which such a pledge or security interest is created nor any financing  statement need be recorded or filed.    10.  Whether  or  not  the bonds of the authority are of such form and  character as to be negotiable instruments under the terms of the uniform  commercial code, the bonds are hereby made negotiable instruments within  the meaning of and for all the purposes of the uniform commercial  code,  subject only to the provisions of the bonds for registration.    11.  Neither  the  directors of the authority nor any person executing  bonds shall be liable personally thereon or be subject to  any  personal  liability  or  accountability  solely by reason of the issuance thereof.  The bonds or other obligations of the authority shall not be a  debt  of  either  the  state  or  the county, and neither the state nor the county  shall be liable thereon, nor shall they be  payable  out  of  any  funds  other  than  those of the authority; and such bonds shall contain on the  face thereof a statement to such effect.12. The authority, subject to such agreements with bondholders as then  may exist, shall have power to purchase bonds of the  authority  out  of  any moneys available therefor, which shall thereupon be cancelled.

Any  resolution  or  resolutions authorizing bonds or any issue of  bonds may contain provisions which may be a part of  the  contract  with  the holders of the bonds thereby authorized as to:    (a)  pledging  all  or part of the authority's revenues, together with  any other moneys, securities or contracts, to secure the payment of  the  bonds, subject to such agreements with bondholders as may then exist;    (b)  the  setting  aside of reserves and the creation of sinking funds  and the regulation and disposition thereof;    (c) limitations on the purposes to which the proceeds from the sale of  bonds may be applied;    (d) limitations on the issuance of additional bonds,  the  terms  upon  which  additional  bonds  may be issued and secured and the refunding of  bonds;(e) the procedure, if any, by which the terms  of  any  contract  with  bondholders  may  be  amended  or abrogated, including the proportion of  bondholders which must consent thereto and  the  manner  in  which  such  consent may be given;    (f)  vesting  in a trustee or trustees such properties, rights, powers  and duties in trust as the authority may determine,  which  may  include  any  or all of the rights, powers and duties of the trustee appointed by  the bondholders pursuant to section  thirty-six  hundred  sixty-four  of  this  title  and limiting or abrogating the rights of the bondholders to  appoint a trustee under such section or limiting the rights, duties  and  powers of such trustee; and    (g)  defining  the  acts  or  omissions  to act which may constitute a  default  in  the  obligations  and  duties  of  the  authority  to   the  bondholders and providing for the rights and remedies of the bondholders  in  the  event  of  such  default,  including  as  a matter of right the  appointment  of  a  receiver;  provided,  however,  that  such  acts  or  omissions  to  act  which  may  constitute a default and such rights and  remedies shall not be inconsistent with the general laws  of  the  state  and other provisions of this title.    8.  In  addition  to the powers herein conferred upon the authority to  secure its bonds, the authority shall have power in connection with  the  issuance  of  bonds to enter into such agreements for the benefit of the  bondholders as the authority may deem necessary, convenient or desirable  concerning the use or disposition  of  its  revenues  or  other  moneys,  including  the  entrusting,  pledging  or creation of any other security  interest in any  such  revenues,  moneys  and  the  doing  of  any  act,  including  refraining from doing any act, which the authority would have  the right to do in the absence of such agreements. The  authority  shall  have  power  to  enter into amendments of any such agreements within the  powers granted to the authority  by  this  title  and  to  perform  such  agreements.  The provisions of any such agreements may be made a part of  the contract with the holders of bonds of the authority.    9. Notwithstanding any provision of the uniform commercial code to the  contrary, any pledge of or other security interest in revenues,  moneys,  accounts,   contract  rights,  general  intangibles  or  other  personal  property made or created by the authority shall be  valid,  binding  and  perfected  from  the  time  when  such  pledge is made or other security  interest attaches without any physical delivery  of  the  collateral  or  further  act, and the lien of any such pledge or other security interest  shall be valid, binding and perfected against all parties having  claims  of  any  kind  in  tort,  contract  or  otherwise  against the authority  irrespective of whether such parties have notice thereof. No  instrument  by which such a pledge or security interest is created nor any financing  statement need be recorded or filed.    10.  Whether  or  not  the bonds of the authority are of such form and  character as to be negotiable instruments under the terms of the uniform  commercial code, the bonds are hereby made negotiable instruments within  the meaning of and for all the purposes of the uniform commercial  code,  subject only to the provisions of the bonds for registration.    11.  Neither  the  directors of the authority nor any person executing  bonds shall be liable personally thereon or be subject to  any  personal  liability  or  accountability  solely by reason of the issuance thereof.  The bonds or other obligations of the authority shall not be a  debt  of  either  the  state  or  the county, and neither the state nor the county  shall be liable thereon, nor shall they be  payable  out  of  any  funds  other  than  those of the authority; and such bonds shall contain on the  face thereof a statement to such effect.12. The authority, subject to such agreements with bondholders as then  may exist, shall have power to purchase bonds of the  authority  out  of  any moneys available therefor, which shall thereupon be cancelled.
