Copy as parenthetical citation

If at the election the question is approved, the governing body shall issue bonds or notes as electoral debt as obligations of the local government unit or shall authorize execution and delivery of an instrument which, but for the electoral approval, would evidence lease rental debt at the times and evidencing the amounts of obligations not exceeding in the aggregate the estimated amount approved by the electors, subject to the provisions of Subchapter C of Chapter 81 (relating to provisions of bonds and notes). The bonds, notes or obligations shall continue for such term as may have been stated in the notice of election or, if none was stated, for the term the governing body determines. The initial series may be of bond anticipation notes or of notes to be refunded by a bond issue. If the governing body determines it advisable, the initial series of bonds or notes constituting a part of the issue may be for a shorter term of years, with the maturity of subsequent series stated to mature later than the last stated maturity of the preceding series for the same project. This subchapter shall not preclude the issue of additional nonelectoral debt or lease rental debt to complete the project or the issue of additional electoral debt for that purpose if authorized by a subsequent election.
