(2) The executive officer, the associate executive officer, or any other person designated by the board shall keep a record of the proceedings of the board and shall be custodian of all books, documents, and papers filed with the board, the minute books or journal of the board, and its official seal. Said executive officer, associate executive officer, or other person may cause copies to be made of all minutes and other records and documents of the board and may give certificates under the official seal of the authority to the effect that such copies are true copies and all persons dealing with the authority may rely on such certificates. (3) The board may delegate, by resolution, to one or more of its members or to its executive officer or associate executive officer such powers and duties as it may deem proper. (4) Before the issuance of any bonds under this article, the executive officer and associate executive officer shall each execute a surety bond in the sum of one hundred thousand dollars, and each member of the board shall execute a surety bond in the sum of fifty thousand dollars or, in lieu thereof, the chairman of the board shall execute a blanket bond covering each member of the board, the executive officer, the associate executive officer, and the employees of the authority, each surety bond to be conditioned upon the faithful performance of the duties of the office covered, to be executed by a surety authorized to transact business in this state as surety. The cost of each such bond shall be paid by the authority. (5) No part of the revenues or assets of the authority shall inure to the benefit of, or be distributed to, its members or officers or any other private persons or entities. (6) The authority and its corporate existence shall continue until terminated by law; except that no such law shall take effect so long as the authority has bonds, notes, or other obligations outstanding, unless adequate provision has been made for the payment thereof. Upon termination of the existence of the authority, all its rights and properties in excess of its obligations shall pass to and be vested in the state.
