(c) For highway projects, the road segment is on the state highway system. Nothing in this division shall allow the imposition of a toll on any local street or road.

(d) The approval of the tolls pursuant to subdivision (a) shall require that the tolls be set and maintained at a level expected to be sufficient to pay debt service, operations, and maintenance of the project over the life of the bonds consistent with the objective set forth in Section 64105.

The project sponsor, in consultation with the department, shall issue an expenditure plan that describes transportation improvements for the corridor. This expenditure plan shall include projected costs, the use of toll revenues, and a proposed completion schedule. The expenditure plan shall be updated annually. The plan and each annual update shall be made available for public review and comment for not less than 30 days prior to adoption by the governing board of the project sponsor.

64115.

 (a) The issuer may, from time to time, issue its negotiable bonds in order to provide funds for achieving any of its purposes under this division.

(b) Except as may otherwise be expressly provided by the issuer, each of its bonds shall be payable from any revenues or moneys of the issuer available therefor and not otherwise pledged, subject only to any agreements with the holders of particular bonds or notes pledging any particular revenues or moneys. Notwithstanding that those bonds may be payable from a special fund, they shall be and be deemed to be for all purposes negotiable instruments, subject only to the provisions of those bonds for registration.

The Treasurer may sell those bonds at a price below the par value thereof. However, the discount on any bonds so sold shall not exceed 6 percent of the par value thereof, except in the case of any bonds payable in whole or in part from moneys held under one or more outstanding resolutions or indentures. Pending preparation of the definitive bonds, the issuer may issue interim receipts or certificates or temporary bonds that shall be exchanged for those definitive bonds.

The trust agreement, indenture, or the resolution providing for the issuance of those bonds may pledge or assign the revenues to be received from a project sponsor or pursuant to any revenue-producing contract or as pledged by the issuer pursuant to Section 64109.

In addition to the foregoing, the indenture, trust agreement, or resolution may contain other provisions as the authority or issuer may deem reasonable and proper for the security of the bondholders.

(c) Any proceeds placed in escrow may, pending their use, be invested and reinvested in obligations or securities authorized by resolutions of the issuer, payable or maturing at the time or times as are appropriate to ensure the prompt payment of the principal, interest, and redemption premium, if any, of the outstanding bonds to be refunded at maturity or redemption of the bonds to be refunded either at their earliest redemption date or dates or any subsequent redemption date or dates or for payment of interest on the refunding bonds on or prior to the final date of redemption or payment of the bonds to be refunded.

(b) Except as provided in subdivision (a), the financing of a project pursuant to this division shall not exempt a project from any requirement of law that is otherwise applicable to the project, and the project sponsor shall provide documentation, before the authority approves the issuance of bonds for the project, that the project has complied with Division 13 (commencing with Section 21000) of the Public Resources Code, or is not a project under that division.

64132.

The authority may pledge any or all of the moneys in the fund as security for payment of the principal of, and interest on, any particular bonds issued by the authority, or any particular secured or unsecured loan made pursuant to subdivision (g) or (h) of Section 64107, and, for that purpose or as necessary or convenient to the accomplishment of any other purpose of the authority, may divide the fund into separate accounts. All moneys accruing to the authority pursuant to this part from whatever source shall be deposited in the fund.

(b) Subject to the priorities that may be created by the pledge of particular moneys in the fund to secure any bonds issued by the authority, and subject further to the costs of loans provided by the authority pursuant to subdivisions (g) and (h) of Section 64107, and subject further to any reasonable costs that may be incurred by the authority in administering the program authorized by this division, all moneys in the fund derived from any source shall be held in trust for the security and payment of bonds issued by the authority and shall not be used or pledged for any other purpose so long as the bonds are outstanding and unpaid. However, nothing in this section shall limit the power of the authority to make loans with the proceeds of bonds in accordance with the terms of the resolution authorizing the same.
