CHAPTER 21

JUNIOR COLLEGES

33-2125.  Bonds. A dormitory housing commission shall have power to issue bonds from time to time in its discretion, for any of its corporate purposes. A commission shall also have power to issue refunding bonds for the purpose of paying or retiring bonds previously issued by it. In order to carry out the purposes of this act, a commission may issue, upon proper resolution, bonds on which the principal and interest are payable (a) exclusively from the income and revenue of a dormitory project financed with the proceeds of such bonds; or (b) exclusively from such income and revenues together with grants and contributions from the federal government or other source in aid of such project; provided that the proceeds of grants of funds and moneys received or to be received from the United States of America or any agency or instrumentality thereof, pursuant to agreements entered into between the commission and the United States of America or any agency or instrumentality thereof prior to the issuance of the bonds, may be considered as revenue of the project for which such bonds are issued.

Neither the commissioners nor any person executing the bonds shall be liable personally on the bonds by reason of the issuance thereof. The bonds and other obligations of a commission (and such bonds and obligations shall so state on their face) shall not be a debt or liability, direct or indirect, of the junior college district, the state, or any political subdivision thereof, and neither the junior college district, the state or any political subdivision thereof, shall be liable thereon, nor in any event shall such bonds or obligations be payable out of any funds other than those of the commission or funds due the commission. Bonds of a commission are declared to be issued for an essential public and governmental purpose and to be public instrumentalities and, together with interest thereon and income therefrom, shall be exempt from taxes.
