Upon the adoption of a bond resolution, a municipal port authority shall have power to incur indebtedness, borrow money and issue its bonds for the purpose of financing the project or of funding or refunding the bonds described therein. Such bonds shall be authorized by the bond resolution and may be issued in 1 or more series and shall bear such date or dates, mature at such time or times not exceeding 40 years from the date thereof, bear interest at a rate or rates within such maximum rate (not exceeding 6% per annum), be in such denomination or denominations, be in such form, either coupon or registered, carry such conversion or registration privileges, have such rank or priority, be executed in such manner, be payable from such sources in such medium of payment at such place or places within or without the State, and be subject to such terms of redemption (with or without premium) as the bond resolution may provide. The municipal port authority may issue such types of bonds as it may determine, including (without limiting the generality of the foregoing) bonds on which the principal and interest are payable (a) exclusively from the income and revenues of the project financed with the proceeds of such bonds; (b) exclusively from the income and revenues of certain designated projects whether or not they are financed in whole or in part with the proceeds of such bonds; or (c) from its revenues generally. Any such bonds may be additionally secured by a pledge of any grant or contributions from the Federal Government, the State or any municipality or a pledge of any income or revenues of the municipal port authority including income or revenues to be received pursuant to grant or lease by the municipal port authority of the use or services of any project owned or controlled by it. This act shall be complete authority for the issuance of bonds by a municipal port authority, and the provisions of any other law shall not apply to the issuance of such bonds.
