At any time after a contract for the construction of all or part of an improvement
authorized under Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 442 to 442.170 has been entered into
or the work has been ordered done by day labor, the city council may issue obligations
in the amount it deems necessary to defray in whole or in part the expense incurred
and estimated to be incurred in making the improvement, including every item of cost
from inception to completion and all fees and expenses incurred in connection with
the improvement or the financing. The obligations are payable primarily out of the
proceeds of the service charge based on net tax capacity imposed under section 463.50 and 463.150 or from any other special assessments or nontax revenues available to be pledged
for their payment under charter or statutory authority, or from two (2) or more of
those sources.
The city council may, by resolution adopted prior to the sale of obligations, pledge
the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the city to assure payment of the principal
and interest if the proceeds of the service charge in the district are insufficient
to pay the principal and interest. The obligations must be issued in accordance with
Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 475, except that an election is not required, and the
amount of the obligations need not be included in determining the net debt of the
city under the provisions of any law or charter limiting debt. (2008-Or-051, § 1,
