Copy as parenthetical citation

(A) Notwithstanding any other provision of this article, the authorization of an issue of bonds the proceeds of which are loaned to more than one hospital agency or public agency to construct or acquire hospital facilities, whether or not the hospital facilities are located or will be located in the jurisdiction of one or more counties, may be governed by Sections 44-7-1640 through 44-7-1720 of this article. The governing body of the authorizing issuer may authorize an issue of bonds for hospital facilities located outside the jurisdiction of the authorizing issuer, provided, hospital facilities will be simultaneously financed under this article in the jurisdiction of the authorizing issuer pursuant to a subsidiary loan agreement. However, no proceeds may be used to acquire or construct hospital facilities in any project county unless an intergovernmental loan agreement is executed between the authorizing issuer and the project county and unless the county board of the project county consents to the intergovernmental loan agreement.

(B) All bonds issued by an authorizing issuer under authority of this article are limited obligations of the authorizing issuer and the project county. The principal, interest, and redemption premiums, if any, on the bonds are payable solely out of the monies to be derived by the authorizing issuer pursuant to one or more intergovernmental loan agreements between the authorizing issuer and the project county or subsidiary loan agreements between the authorizing issuer and a hospital agency or public agency relating to the hospital facilities in the jurisdiction of the authorizing issuer which the bonds are issued to finance or refinance or a subsidiary loan agreement between the project county and the hospital agency or public agency within the jurisdiction of the project county. Bonds and interest coupons issued under authority of this article do not constitute an indebtedness of the authorizing issuer or project county within the meaning of any state constitutional provision or statutory limitation and do not constitute nor give rise to a pecuniary liability of the authorizing issuer or project county or a charge against their general credit or taxing powers, and this fact must be plainly stated on the face of each bond.
