26029. The authority shall not be required to pay any property taxes or assessments upon, or in respect to, a project or any property acquired by or for the authority under the provisions of this division or upon the income therefrom, so long as the authority holds title to such project or the property or facilities comprised in the project. The exemption of the authority from taxation of any project herein provided shall cease forthwith when title to such property is transferred from the authority to any participating party. The provisions of this section shall not exempt any participating party from taxation including, but not limited to, taxation upon a possessory interest, with respect to any project, or the property or facilities comprised in any project, which may otherwise be applicable to such participating party. 26029.4. Subject to Section 26029.6, the existence of the authority may be terminated at any time by the Legislature. Upon dissolution of the authority, the title to all properties owned by it shall, subject to the interests of any participating parties therein, vest in and become the property of the State of California and shall not inure to the benefit of any private party. 26029.5. This division shall be deemed to provide a complete, additional, and alternative method for the doing of the things authorized thereby, and shall be regarded as supplemental and additional to powers conferred by other laws, except that the issuance of bonds and refunding bonds under the provisions of this division need not comply with the requirements of any other law applicable to the issuance of bonds, and provided that, in the construction and acquisition of a project pursuant hereto, the authority need not comply with the requirements of any other law applicable to the construction or acquisition of public works except as specifically provided in this division. 26029.6. The State of California does hereby pledge to and agree with the holders of any obligations issued under this division, and with those parties who may enter into contracts with the authority pursuant to the provisions of this division, that the state will not limit or alter the rights hereby vested in the authority until such obligations, together with the interest thereon, are fully met and discharged and such contracts are fully performed on the part of the authority; provided, however, nothing herein contained shall preclude such limitation or alteration if and when adequate provision shall be made by law for the protection of the holders of such obligations of the authority or those entering into such contracts with the authority. The authority as agent for the state is authorized to include this pledge and undertaking for the state in such obligations or contracts. 26029.8. The powers granted to the authority by this division may be exercised without regard or reference to any department or agency of the state. All other general or special laws, or parts thereof, inconsistent with this division are hereby declared to be inapplicable to the provisions of this division. Nothing contained in this division shall be interpreted to exempt the construction or acquisition of any project by any participating party from compliance with all applicable local, state, or federal laws and regulations.
