WEST VIRGINIA CODE
WVC 16 - 13 A- 13
§16-13A-13. Revenue bonds.
For constructing or acquiring any public service properties
for the authorized purposes of the district, or necessary or
incidental thereto, and for constructing improvements and
extensions thereto, and also for reimbursing or paying the costs
and expenses of creating the district, the board of any such
district is hereby authorized to borrow money from time to time and
in evidence thereof issue the bonds of such district, payable
solely from the revenues derived from the operation of the public
service properties under control of the district. Such bonds may
be issued in one or more series, may bear such date or dates, may
mature at such time or times not exceeding forty years from their
respective dates, may bear interest at such rate or rates not
exceeding eighteen percent per annum payable at such times, may be
in such form, may carry such registration privileges, may be
executed in such manner, may be payable at such place or places,
may be subject to such terms of redemption with or without premium,
may be declared or become due before maturity date thereof, may be
authenticated in any manner, and upon compliance with such
conditions, and may contain such terms and covenants as may be
provided by resolution or resolutions of the board. Notwithstanding
the form or tenor thereof, and in the absence of any express
recital on the face thereof, that the bond is nonnegotiable, all
such bonds shall be, and shall be treated as, negotiable
instruments for all purposes. Bonds bearing the signatures of
officers in office on the date of the signing thereof shall be
valid and binding for all purposes notwithstanding that before the delivery thereof any or all of the persons whose signatures appear
thereon shall have ceased to be such officers. Notwithstanding the
requirements or provisions of any other law, any such bonds may be
negotiated or sold in such manner and at such time or times as is
found by the board to be most advantageous, and all such bonds may
be sold at such price that the interest cost of the proceeds
therefrom does not exceed nineteen percent per annum, based on the
average maturity of such bonds and computed according to standard
tables of bond values. Any resolution or resolutions providing for
the issuance of such bonds may contain such covenants and
restrictions upon the issuance of additional bonds thereafter as
may be deemed necessary or advisable for the assurance of the
payment of the bonds thereby authorized.
