  • Dependent: A person dependent for support upon another.
  • District: means a county improvement district that operates or is formed for the purpose of operating a domestic water delivery system or a wastewater system within the district, whether or not the district is governed in the manner described in article 4 of this chapter.

C. The district may, but shall not be required to, submit any bonds to be issued under this article to the attorney general after all proceedings for authorizing the bonds have been completed. On submission the attorney general shall examine and pass on the validity of the bonds and the regularity of the proceedings. If the proceedings comply with this article, and if the bonds when delivered and paid for will constitute binding and legal obligations of the district, the attorney general shall certify on the back of each bond, in substance, that it is issued according to the constitution and laws of this state.

D. The bonds shall recite that they are regularly issued pursuant to this article. That recital, together with any certification by the attorney general under subsection C of this section, constitutes prima facie evidence of the legality and validity of the bonds. From and after the sale and delivery of the bonds, they are incontestable by this state, the county or the district.
