 §5267. Financing The legislative body of a municipality may authorize, issue and sell bonds, including, but not limited to, general obligation or revenue bonds or notes, that mature within 20 years from the date of issue, or may enter into other types of financing transactions as it determines appropriate to finance all project costs needed to carry out the development program within the development district.

The notes, bonds or other forms of financing may not be included when computing the municipality's net debt.
