The Notes shall be signed by the Mayor and Director of <br />Finance, in the name of the City and in their official capacities, provided <br />that one of those signatures may be a facsimile, and bear the corporate seal <br />of the City or a facsimile of that seal; shall be issued in the numbers and <br />denominations as may be requested by the original purchaser and approved by <br />the Director of Finance, provided that the entire principal amount may be <br />represented by a single note; shall not have coupons attached; shall be <br />numbered as determined by the Director of Finance; and shall express upon <br />their faces the purpose for which they are issued and that theq are issued <br />pursuant to this ordinance. <br />Section 6. The Notes are offered at par and accrued interest, if <br />any, to the Director of Finance, as officer in charge of the Bond Retirement <br />Fund of the City. Notes not purchased for the Bond Retirement Fund or for <br />other funds of the City shall be sold at private sale by the Director of <br />Finance in accordance with law and the provisions of this ordinance. The <br />Director of Finance shall sign the certificate of award referred to in Section <br />3 evidencing that sale, cause the Notes to be prepared, and have the Notes <br />signed and delivered, together with a true transcript of proceedings with <br />reference to the issuance of the Notes if requested by the original purchaser, <br />to the original purchaser upon payment of the purchase price. <br />Section 7. The proceeds from the sale of the Notes, except any <br />premium and accrued interest, shall be paid into the construction fund for the <br />improvement and then transferred immediately to the Bond Retirement Fund and <br />shall be used, together with any investment earnings thereon, to pay principal <br />of and interest on the outstanding notes at maturity and are pledged for that <br />purpose. Anq portion of those proceeds representing premium and accrued <br />interest shall be paid into the Bond Retirement Fund to be applied to the <br />payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes in the manner provided <br />by law. <br />Section 8. The par value to be received from the sale of the Bonds <br />or any renewal notes and any excess funds resulting from the issuance of the <br />Notes shall, to the extent necessary, be used to pay the principal of and <br />interest on the Notes at maturity and are pledged for that purpose. <br />Section 9. During the year or years in which the Notes are out- <br />standing, there shall be levied on all the taxable property in the City, in <br />addition to all other taxes, the same tax that would have been levied if the <br />Bonds had been issued without the prior issuance of the Notes. The tax shall <br />be within the 11.1-mill limitation provided by the Charter of the City, shall <br />be and is ordered computed, certified, levied and extended upon the tax dupli- <br />cate and collected by the same officers, in the same manner, and at the same <br />time that taxes for general purposes for each of those years are certified, <br />levied, extended and collected, and shall be placed before and in preference <br />to all other items and for the full amount thereof. The proceeds of the tax <br />levy shall be placed in the Bond Retirement Fund, which is irrevocably pledged <br />for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes or the Bonds <br />when and as the same fall due. However, in each year to the extent the income <br />from the City's sanitary sewerage system is available for the payment of the <br />principal of and interest on the Notes and Bonds and is appropriated for that <br />purpose, the amount of the tax shall be reduced by the amount of the income so <br />available and appropriated. <br />Section 10. The City covenants that it will restrict the use of the <br />proceeds of the Notes in such manner and to such extent, if any, as may be <br />necessary, after taking into account reasonable expectations at the time of <br />the delivery of and payment for the Notes, so that the Notes will not consti- <br />tute arbitrage bonds under Section 103(c) of the Internal Revenue Code and the <br />applicable regulations prescribed under that Section. The Director of <br />Finance, as the fiscal officer, or any other officer having responsibility for <br />issuing the Notes, shall, alone or with any other officer or employee of or <br />consultant to the City, give an appropriate certificate of the City for <br />inclusion in the transcript of proceedings for the Notes, setting forth the
