A. All bonds issued hereunder shall be advertised for sale on sealed bids, in accordance with the law of Louisiana providing a uniform advertising procedure for securities of public entities required to be sold at public sale on sealed bids.

If not so sold, the bonds shall be readvertised in the manner herein prescribed.
