Bill Summary
Relating to the issuance of bonds by certain local government corporations.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Transportation Code to allow certain local government corporations created by municipalities or counties to issue bonds that are to be paid wholly or partly from ad valorem taxes transferred from the municipality or county and approved by voters under Section 26.07 of the Tax Code. The bill requires a voter-approved bond election before such bonds can be issued, and sets out requirements for the bond proposition and the maturity of the bonds. The bill also amends the Government Code to include local government corporations in the definition of "issuer" for purposes of state laws on public securities.
