Each year, within 60 days of the anniversary date of the first adoption of the enabling resolution, the port authority shall submit a report to the city council stating whether and how it wishes the enabling resolution to be modified. Within 30 days of receipt of the recommendation, the city council shall review the enabling resolution, consider the recommendations of the port authority, and make any modification it considers appropriate. A modification must be made according to the procedural requirements of section 469.0723. The petition requirement does not limit the right of the port authority to petition the city council at any time.
A determination by the city council that the limits imposed under this section have been complied with by the port authority is conclusive.
Limits imposed under this section must not be applied in a manner that impairs the security of any bonds issued or contracts executed before the limit is imposed. The city council must not modify any limit in effect at the time any bonds or obligations are issued or contracts executed to the detriment of the holder of the bonds or obligations or any contracting party.
