Official statutory text
Sec. 20. The board of directors for utilities may issue revenue obligations for any one or more of the following purposes:
(1) For the purpose of obtaining funds with which to pay for the acquisition of any utility property which any such city shall have acquired or shall have the right to and shall determine to acquire, or which any such city may have taken over as trustee for the inhabitants thereof, including any money required to be paid for the purpose of redeeming or extinguishing the capital stock of any utility whose property has been or may be so taken over and for the purpose of paying any outstanding obligations of any utility subject to which the property is or may be held in trust for the inhabitants thereof, or for the purpose of making necessary betterments, improvements, extensions or additions to any utility property owned or held in trust by any such city, including all costs necessarily incurred in connection with the acquisition of any such property or taking it over in trust or the paying off of any such indebtedness or the making of any such betterments, improvements, extensions, or additions thereto.
(2) For the purpose of reimbursing the department of public utilities, or its board of directors for utilities for funds borrowed, expended or advanced for interim financing of the cost of any utility property, or any betterments, improvements, extensions or additions thereto.
(3) Subject to covenants and agreements with the holders of outstanding obligations, for the purpose of funding or refunding revenue obligations. If the board of directors for utilities determines that it would be advantageous to the department of public utilities to exchange funding or refunding obligations for the revenue obligations being funded or refunded, such exchange may be made, provided the actual interest cost is not increased.
