§ 13871 Bond Payment Appropriation

Key Takeaways

  • •The state sets aside money to pay back bonds (like loans) issued under this law.
  • •The money covers both the original loan amount and the interest that builds up over time.
  • •Extra money is also set aside to follow the rules in Section 13872, no matter the budget year.

Example

Imagine the state borrows money to build a new school, like taking out a loan for a house.

The state must pay back that loan plus interest, just like you’d pay back a bank loan with extra fees. This law makes sure the money is always there to do that.
