The authority may, from time to time, issue its bonds in the principal amount as the authority determines necessary to provide sufficient funds for its purposes, which may include, but shall not be limited to, providing funds for bond purchase agreements, payment of the purchase price of VLF receivables, payment of the purchase price of Proposition 1A receivables, financing utility projects, payment of interest on bonds of the authority, establishment of reserves to secure the bonds, and other expenditures of the authority incident to issuance of the bonds.
The authority may also issue bonds for the purpose of making loans to local agencies, to the extent those local agencies are authorized by law to borrow moneys, or to purchase VLF receivables from local agencies as provided in Section 6588.5, or to purchase Proposition 1A receivables as provided in Section 6588.6, and the loan or sale proceeds shall be used by the local agencies to pay for public capital improvements, working capital, or insurance programs. The aggregate principal amount of all bonds issued pursuant to this section that are backed by Proposition 1A receivables shall not exceed two billion two hundred fifty million dollars ($2,250,000,000), and that issuance shall be approved by the Department of Finance and the Treasurer.
In the case of any authority in existence on January 1, 1988, no loans shall be made to local agencies for working capital or insurance, unless that purpose is first approved by resolution of the governing body of the authority by unanimous vote of all members of the governing body.
