fund payments required therefor, and to create or maintain any
reserve fund required therefor.
   A vote in favor of the issuance of the bonds shall authorize the
use of such taxes for such purposes.  The transactions and use tax
ordinance shall not be repealed until all bonds payable from the
revenues derived from such taxes have been fully paid or provision
has been made for their payment in full.
