There is hereby created a special fund, to be known as the Sewer Improvement Bonds, Series 1987A Fund, and in the event the principal of and interest upon the said Bonds shall become due and payable and there are insufficient moneys in said Fund to pay such principal and interest, the County Treasurer is authorized and directed to pay said principal and interest from the general fund and thereafter to reimburse said general fund from collections of special assessments for the wastewater treatment facility for the Otter Tail Area Sewer System constructed by the Otter Tail Lake Area Sewer District (the "District"). The District is required to levy special assessments to provide for the payment of the Bonds pursuant to the Joint Powers Agreement dated December 1, 1984 between the County and the District. The proceeds of the Bonds herein authorized shall be deposited-in a separate fund to be used solely for the payment of Notes at their maturity on June 1, 1987. Any remaining proceeds may be used for any lawful purpose. All collections of special assessments •for the Im- provement are hereby irrevocably appropriated and pledged to the payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds herein author- ized, and the moneys and investments in the Sewer Improvement Bonds, Series 1987A Fund shall be used for no other purpose than to pay principal of and interest on the said Bonds until such principal and interest shall have been paid in full; provided, however, that nothing herein contained shall prevent the is- suance and sale of additional bonds payable from the proceeds of such assessments to provide additional funds to pay the balance . of the cost of said Improvement. 12. It is hereby found and determined that the estimated collection of special assessments pledged for the payment of said Bonds will produce at least five percent in excess of the amount needed to meet, when due, the principal and interest payments on the Bonds, and it is further found and determined that the special benefits to be assessed against assessable property for each improvement will, in any case, be more than 20% of the cost of the improvement to the County. No general ad valorem tax levy is presently required; but the Bonds are general obligations of the County and the County shall levy a general ad valorem tax on all taxable property in the County, if necessary, to pay principal a~d interest when due. 13. The Bonds are hereby designated as qualified tax-exempt obligations within the meaning of Section 265(b)(3)(B). The reasonably anticipated amount of "qualified tax-exempt obligations" which will be issued by the County does not exceed $10,000~000. The County has not designated ~ny pre- vious issues in calendar year 1987 as "qualified tax-exempt obligations." 14. The County Auditor is authorized and directed to prepare and furnish to the purchaser and to the attorneys approving the Bonds, certified copies of all proceedings and records relating to the issuance of said General Obligation Sewer Improvement Bonds, Series 1987A and to the right, power and authority of the County and its officers to issue the same, and said certified copies and certificates shall be deemed the representations of the County as to all matters stated therein.
