Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. The total of all general obligation
bonds and other general obligation securities constituting a debt (but
excluding revenue bonds and other securities constituting special obligations)
issued to finance any undertaking authorized in NRS 710.160 to 710.280 , inclusive, must be in a principal
amount not to exceed 2 percent of the assessed valuation of all property in the
county for the year in which the bonds are issued. Such general obligation
securities constitute a separate classification of debt of the county and do
not exhaust its debt-incurring power for other purposes under any other
statutory debt limitation.
2. No revenue bonds or other securities
constituting special obligations of the county payable from the revenues of the
system may be issued for any undertaking authorized in NRS 710.160 to 710.280 , inclusive, unless the earnings
derived from the operation of the system for the fiscal year immediately
preceding the date of the issuance of such revenue bonds or other securities
has been sufficient to pay the operation and maintenance expenses of the system
for the fiscal year, and, in addition, sufficient to pay an amount representing
125 percent of the average annual principal and interest requirements of the
outstanding bonds and other securities of the county payable from the revenues
of the system and the bonds or other securities proposed to be issued.
3. This section does not prevent the
county from funding, refunding or reissuing any securities of the county
appertaining to the system as provided in the Local Government Securities Law,
except as therein limited.
