Sec. 56. (a) This section applies notwithstanding any other law.(b) A pledge of revenues, other money, or property made by the corporation to secure the repayment of its bonds or leases entered into with the building authority, regardless of when the pledge was made, is binding from the time the pledge is, or was, made. The pledge, as of the date the pledge is or was made, creates a statutory lien upon these revenues, other money, or property of the corporation so pledged at the time the pledge is, or was, made. Revenues, other money, or property pledged and then received by the corporation, or which after the pledge may be held, possessed, maintained or controlled by, or otherwise in the custody of:(1) any other political subdivision of the state; or(2) any department, agency, or instrumentality of a political subdivision of the state;under any other law, are immediately subject to the statutory lien of the pledge, with the statutory lien immediately and automatically attaching to the revenues, other money, or property pledged, without any further act. The statutory lien of a pledge is binding against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract, or otherwise, against the corporation, regardless of whether the parties have notice of any lien. No resolution, ordinance, indenture, or other instrument by which a pledge is created needs to be filed or recorded except in the records of the corporation.(c) To the extent that the corporation has pledged any revenues, other money, or property to secure the repayment of its bonds or leases entered into with the building authority, the following apply:(1) The revenues, other money, or property so pledged and then received by the corporation, or which after the pledge, may be held, possessed, maintained or controlled by, or otherwise in the custody of:(A) any other political subdivision of the state; or(B) any department, agency, or instrumentality of a political subdivision of the state;under any other law, up to an amount necessary to pay debt service on or to maintain a reserve fund or any required coverage ratio in any calendar year or bond year with respect to such an obligation, shall be used for the repayment of the obligation and for no other purpose until the obligation for that calendar year or bond year is fully paid in accordance with its terms.(2) The corporation is prohibited from consenting to or permitting, and shall never be construed as consenting to or permitting, without the consent of one hundred percent (100%) of the owners of all its bonds then outstanding and those bonds then outstanding that are secured by the leases entered into with the building authority, the use of the pledged revenues for any purpose, except as described in subdivision (1).(3) The revenues, other money, or property, which after the pledge, may be held, possessed, maintained or controlled by, or otherwise in the custody of:(A) any other political subdivision of the state; or(B) any department, agency, or instrumentality of a political subdivision of the state;under any other law, and that would otherwise be available for distribution to the corporation, are automatically subject to a statutory lien for purposes of section 58 of this chapter.(4) The corporation has no legal or equitable right to any of these revenues, other money, or property, which after the pledge may be held, possessed, maintained or controlled by, or otherwise in the custody of any other political subdivision of the state, or any department, agency, or instrumentality of a political subdivision of the state under any other law, and that would otherwise be available for distribution to the corporation, until:(A) any reduction permitted under section 58 of this chapter has been applied; and(B) the revenues, other money, or property have been or are required to be distributed to and received by the corporation.(5) The corporation is prohibited from consenting to or permitting, and shall never be construed as consenting to or permitting, the use of any of the revenues, other money, or property that is reduced pursuant to section 58 of this chapter for any other purpose, other than the purposes described in section 58 of this chapter.As added by P.L.189-2018, SEC.146.
