1. If the proposed plan for the funding or
refunding of bonds, notes or certificates of indebtedness is approved by the
Department of Taxation, the board of directors of the irrigation district shall
submit the question concerning authorization of the plan for the funding or
refunding of bonds to the electors of the district at a special election or the
next district election or primary or general state election.
2. The result of the election must be
determined and declared substantially in the same manner as provided by this
chapter for the issuance of other bonds of improvement districts in irrigation
districts, except that a majority vote only is required for the authorization
of those funding or refunding bonds.
3. The maturity of the funding or
refunding bonds must be fixed by the board of directors of the irrigation
district, subject to the approval of the Department of Taxation, but in no case
may the maturity of any of the bonds be more than 40 years from the date
thereof. The rate of interest on those bonds must not exceed by more than 5
percent the Index of Revenue Bonds which was most recently published before the
bids are received or a negotiated offer is accepted, payable semiannually.
