The amount of bonds may be any multiple of one hundred dollars ($100.00), as provided in the ordinance authorizing their issuance, and shall bear interest payable annually or semiannually at a rate, at a place and in the manner as the ordinance provides. The bonds may be redeemed before maturity at a time or times and in a manner as the governing body determines, and payable in not more than thirty (30) years after the date of their issuance, or payable serially at times in regular numerical order at annual or other designated intervals in any amounts designated and fixed by the governing body. However bonds issued by a city or town to establish, construct, purchase or extend a system of sewerage may mature and be payable at any time not more than forty (40) years from their date or the estimated life of the improvement whichever is shorter.

(b) No bonds may be issued for the purposes provided in this article until the proposition to issue them has been submitted to and approved by the qualified electors of the city or town at an election which shall be called, conducted, canvassed and returned in the manner provided for bond elections by the Political Subdivision Bond Election Law, W.S. 22-21-101 through 22-21-112.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision of W.S. 22-21-101 through 22-21-112, for purposes of this section, where repayment of funds borrowed from the United States of America or from the state of Wyoming, or from any subdivision, agency or department of either, is to be made solely from revenues generated by the enterprise with which the financed public improvement project is associated and where security for the loan is restricted to a claim on the revenues generated from the enterprise with which the proposed public improvement project is associated and to the assets of that enterprise, any document evidencing the agreement to repay the borrowed funds shall not be considered a bond and no election shall be required.
