Summary

The law lets the city sell general‑obligation bonds and short‑term notes to raise money for repairing, building, and improving storm drains and for flood‑mitigation work. Proceeds must be used for those projects, bond debt is kept outside the city’s statutory debt limit, and voters must approve the measure in a citywide election. It also sets rules for bond terms, note issuance, investment of funds, and repayment.
