HOUSE AMENDMENT
Bill No. HB 1825
Amendment No. 01 (for drafter's use only)
1 part I of chapter 159 shall be fully applicable to such
2 entity. Bonds issued by such entity shall be deemed issued on
3 behalf of the counties or municipalities which enter into loan
4 agreements with such entity as provided in this paragraph.
5 Any loan agreement executed pursuant to a program of such
6 entity shall be governed by the provisions of part I of
7 chapter 159 or, in the case of counties, part I of chapter
8 125, or in the case of municipalities and charter counties,
9 part II of chapter 166. Proceeds of bonds issued by such
10 entity may be loaned to counties or municipalities of this
11 state or a combination of municipalities and counties, whether
12 or not such counties or municipalities are also members of the
13 entity issuing the bonds. The issuance of bonds by such
14 entity to fund a loan program to make loans to municipalities
15 or counties or a combination of municipalities and counties
16 with one another for capital projects to be identified
17 subsequent to the issuance of the bonds to fund such loan
18 programs is deemed to be a paramount public purpose. Any
19 entity so created may also issue bond anticipation notes, as
20 provided by s. 215.431, in connection with the authorization,
21 issuance, and sale of such bonds. In addition, the governing
22 body of such legal entity may also authorize bonds to be
23 issued and sold from time to time and may delegate, to such
24 officer, official, or agent of such legal entity as the
25 governing body of such legal entity may select, the power to
26 determine the time; manner of sale, public or private;
27 maturities; rate or rates of interest, which may be fixed or
28 may vary at such time or times and in accordance with a
29 specified formula or method of determination; and other terms
30 and conditions as may be deemed appropriate by the officer,
31 official, or agent so designated by the governing body of such
