LA Rev Stat § 33:130.55 What's This?

§130.55. Bond sale and execution; receipts; local government liability

A. The revenue bonds shall be sold in such manner, at such times, and at such prices as the governing authority of the local governmental subdivision may determine.

B. The revenue bonds and coupons, if any, attached thereto shall be executed in the name of the local governmental subdivision by the manual or facsimile signatures of such official or officials as may be designated in the bond resolution or the trust agreement authorizing their issuance. If any officer whose manual or facsimile signature appears on any revenue bond or coupon ceases to be such officer before the delivery of such bonds, such signature nevertheless shall be valid and sufficient for all purposes as if he had remained in office until such delivery. The bond resolution or trust agreement may provide for authentication of the bonds by the trustee or fiscal agent thereunder.

C. Pending the preparation of definitive revenue bonds, the local governmental subdivision may issue interim receipts or temporary revenue bonds, with or without coupons, exchangeable for definitive revenue bonds when such bonds have been executed and are available for delivery.

D. No officer or member of the local governmental subdivision, its governing authority, the state bond commission, or any person executing such revenue bonds shall be liable personally on such bonds.

E. The local governmental subdivision shall have power to purchase its revenue bonds out of any funds available therefor under the bond resolution or the trust agreement authorizing or securing such bonds.
