Where this section sits in the code
  1. KRS Chapter 97

The bonds issued pursuant to KRS 97.150 shall be negotiable and shall not be subject to

taxation. If the officers whose signatures or countersignatures appear on the bonds or

coupons cease to be officers before delivery of the bonds, the signatures or

countersignatures shall nevertheless be valid. The bonds shall be sold in a manner and

upon the terms as the legislative body of the city deems for the best interests of the city,

or any contract for the acquisition of a project may provide that payment shall be made in

bonds. The bonds shall be payable solely from the revenue funds derived from the

operation of the project, and the bonds and other obligations incurred for the

establishment and maintenance of a recreational project shall not constitute an

indebtedness of the city within the meaning of the Constitution. It shall be plainly stated

on the face of each bond that it has been issued under the provisions of KRS 97.100 to

97.240 and does not constitute an indebtedness of the city within the meaning of the

Constitution.
