 (a) The legislative body of any municipality is authorized to provide, by ordinance, for the issuance of revenue bonds of the municipality to finance parking facilities. The bonds of each issue shall be dated, shall bear interest at such rate or rates, shall mature at such time or times not exceeding twenty-five years from their date, and may be made redeemable before maturity at such price or prices, and under such terms and conditions, as is provided by the legislative body prior to the issuance of such bonds. The legislative body shall determine the form of bonds, including any interest coupons to be attached thereto, and the manner of execution of the bonds, and shall fix the denomination or denominations of the bonds and the place or places of payment of principal and interest, which may be at any bank or trust company within the state. All bonds issued under the provisions of this chapter shall be negotiable instruments under the provisions of the general statutes. Such bonds may be sold in such manner and for such price as is determined to be for the best interests of the municipality.(b) Revenue bonds issued under the provisions of this chapter shall not constitute a pledge of the faith and credit of the municipality, but shall be payable as to principal and interest solely from the funds provided therefor from revenues under the provisions of this chapter, and shall contain on the face thereof a statement to that effect; and such bonds shall not be subject to the debt limitation prescribed by section 7-374.(c) The ordinance authorizing the issuance of revenue bonds under the provisions of this chapter shall pledge the revenues to be received from the parking facility or parking facilities for which such bonds are issued. Such ordinance may also pledge off-street or on-street, parking meter revenues, or both, for such purpose and may further provide for mortgaging such parking facility or parking facilities as additional security, and may contain such provisions for protecting and enforcing the rights and remedies of the bondholders as may be reasonable and proper and not in violation of law, including covenants setting forth the duties of the municipality, of the legislative body and of the parking authority or division in relation to the construction, improvement, maintenance, repair, operation and insurance of the parking facility or parking facilities, and provisions for the custody, safeguarding and application of all moneys and for the employment of necessary personnel. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, the legislative body may provide for the payment of the proceeds of the sale of the bonds and the revenues of the parking facility or parking facilities to such officer, board or depository as it designates for the custody thereof, and for the method of disbursement thereof, with such restrictions as it determines. All expenses incurred in carrying out the provisions of such ordinance may be treated as a part of the cost of operation.(d) The ordinance providing for the issuance of revenue bonds may also contain such limitations upon the issuance of additional revenue bonds as the legislative body deems proper.(1953, S. 284d; 1957, P.A. 13, S. 28; 1959, P.A. 558, S. 2, 3; 1969, P.A. 424, S. 2.)History: 1959 act added reference to Sec. 7-207a in Subsec.
