231.16 Refunding bonds.
(1) The authority may issue bonds to refund any outstanding bond of the authority or indebtedness that a participating health institution, participating educational institution, participating nonprofit institution, or participating research institution may have incurred for the construction or acquisition of a project prior to or after April 30, 1980, including the payment of any redemption premium on the outstanding bond or indebtedness and any interest accrued or to accrue to the earliest or any subsequent date of redemption, purchase, or maturity, or to pay all or any part of the cost of constructing and acquiring additions, improvements, extensions, or enlargements of a project or any portion of a project. Except for bonds to refund bonds issued under s. 231.03 (6) (g), no bonds may be issued under this section unless the authority has first entered into a new or amended agreement with a participating health institution, participating educational institution, participating nonprofit institution, or participating research institution to provide sufficient revenues to pay the costs and other items described in s. 231.13.
(2) The authority may apply the proceeds of the bonds issued to refund or refinance any outstanding bond or indebtedness to the purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption of the outstanding bond or indebtedness either on its earliest or any subsequent redemption date or upon the purchase or at the maturity of the bond or indebtedness. The authority may, pending application, place the proceeds in escrow to be applied to the purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption on any date the authority determines.
(3) All bonds issued under this section shall be subject to this chapter in the same manner and to the same extent as other bonds issued pursuant to this chapter, except that the limitations with respect to dates under s. 231.03 (14) do not apply to bonds issued under this section, and the requirement under s. 231.08 (3) that the bonds mature in 50 years or less from their date of issue does not apply to bonds issued under this section to refund bonds issued under s. 231.03 (6) (g).
