Section 21-2A-7 - Payment of general obligation bonds; bond provisionsA. The principal of and interest on general obligation bonds authorized in the College District Tax Act to be issued, and any prior redemption premiums, shall be payable from the proceeds of general property taxes levied without limitation as to rate or amount, except for the limitation for general obligation bond issuances established in the College District Tax Act, and except to the extent other revenues are made available for that purpose. All bonds shall be the general obligations of the college district, and the full faith and credit of the college district shall be pledged for the payments of the bonds.B. It may be provided in any proceedings authorizing any bonds under the College District Tax Act that the bond shall recite that it is issued under authority of the College District Tax Act. The recital shall conclusively impart full compliance with all of the provisions of the College District Tax Act, and all bonds issued containing the recital shall be incontestable for any cause whatsoever after their delivery for value.C. All bonds issued by a college district shall be fully negotiable and constitute negotiable instruments within the meaning of and for all the purposes of the Uniform Commercial Code [Chapter 55 NMSA 1978] as that law is now or may hereafter be in force in this state. If lost or completely destroyed, any bond may be reissued in the form and tenor of the lost or destroyed bond upon the owner furnishing to the satisfaction of the board: (2) proof of loss or destruction;(3) a surety bond in twice the face amount of the bond and coupons; and(4) payment of the cost of preparing and issuing the new bond and coupons.D. Notwithstanding any other provision of law, the board may in any proceedings authorizing bonds under the College District Tax Act provide for the initial issuance of one or more bonds, in this section called "bond", aggregating the amount of the entire issue, may make such provision for installment payments of the principal amount of any bond as it may consider desirable and may provide for the making of any bond payable to bearer or otherwise, registrable as to principal or as to both principal and interest and, where interest accruing on the bond is not represented by interest coupons, for the endorsing of payments of interest on the bond. The board may further make provisions in any such resolution for the manner and circumstances in and under which any bond may, at the request of the holder of the bond, be converted into bonds of smaller denominations, which bonds of smaller denominations may in turn be either coupon bonds or bonds registrable as to principal or principal and interest.Laws 1995, ch. 224, § 13.
