§ 3905 Harbor Improvement Bond Funding

This law lets California borrow money to build and fix harbors. A special group called the Harbor Improvement Bond Committee can decide to take on this debt, but only in the way the law allows.

Key Takeaways

  • •The state can borrow money to build or fix harbors.
  • •Only the Harbor Improvement Bond Committee can decide to do this.
  • •They can't borrow more than the law allows.

Example

Imagine a small fishing town where the dock is old and breaking. Boats can't safely come in, and fishermen lose money.

This law lets the state borrow money to fix that dock so boats can use it again. The Harbor Improvement Bond Committee would decide how much to borrow and how to spend it.
