§ 13621 Special District Bonding Authority

Key Takeaways

  • •A special district can ask people to vote on borrowing money (by selling bonds) for big projects.
  • •The money can only be used for things like building or buying stuff to handle trash or sewage.
  • •This can happen anytime after the special district is created.

Example

A small town wants to build a new trash recycling plant but doesn’t have enough money.

The town can ask voters to approve borrowing money by selling bonds to pay for the plant. If most people vote yes, the town can build it.
