(a) An authority created pursuant to sections 22a-500 to 22a-519, inclusive, may issue bonds from time to time and use the proceeds thereof for the purposes and powers of the authority and to accomplish the purposes of sections 22a-500 to 22a-519, inclusive, or for the purpose of refunding such bonds, including providing for payment of the costs of its wastewater system or any wastewater system of the authority, providing for payment of any and all costs of the authority incident to or otherwise necessary to the construction thereof, including administrative, legal and financing expenses, and providing for the establishment and maintenance of reserves, sinking funds and any other funds and accounts for such bonds. The authority shall secure such bonds as to both principal and interest by any or all of the following: From its revenues generally, a pledge of the revenues to be derived from the operation of its wastewater system or a facility from which the revenues so pledged may be derived or a pledge of any lease of such system or facility or of the payments on any loan of the proceeds of such bonds. Prior to the preparation of definitive bonds the authority may authorize the issuance of interim receipts or temporary bonds, exchangeable for definitive bonds when such bonds have been executed and are available for delivery. If any of the officers whose signatures appear on the bonds cease to be officers before the delivery of any such bonds, such signatures shall, nevertheless, be valid and sufficient for all purposes, the same as if such officers had remained in office until delivery.

(b) An authority may, to provide for the issuance of its bonds for the purpose of refunding any bonds of the authority then outstanding, including the payment of any redemption premium thereon and any interest accrued or to accrue to the earliest or any subsequent date of redemption, purchase or maturity of such bonds, and if deemed advisable by the authority, for the additional purpose of paying all or any part of the cost of a wastewater system. The proceeds of any such bonds issued for the purpose of refunding outstanding bonds may, in the discretion of the authority, be applied to the purchase or retirement at maturity or redemption of such outstanding bonds either on their earliest or any subsequent redemption date, and may, pending such application, be placed in escrow to be applied to such purchase or retirement at maturity or at redemption on such date as may be determined by the authority.

(c) Whenever the issuance of bonds has been authorized pursuant to sections 22a-500 to 22a-519, inclusive, an authority, pending the issuance thereof and subject to any applicable terms or provisions of the proceedings authorizing such issuance, may issue bond anticipation notes and any renewals thereof. The principal of and interest on any bond anticipation notes issued pursuant to sections 22a-500 to 22a-519, inclusive, may be repaid from pledged revenues or other pledged receipts, funds or moneys, to the extent not paid from the proceeds of renewals thereof or of bonds. Upon the sale of bonds, the proceeds thereof, to the extent required, shall be applied forthwith to the payment of the principal of and interest on any bond anticipation notes or shall be deposited in trust for such purpose. The date or dates of such bond anticipation notes, the maturities, denominations, form, details and other particulars of such bond anticipation notes, including the method, terms and conditions for the issue and sale thereof, shall be determined by the authority.

No provision of any special act enacted prior to July 13, 1995, shall be construed to prohibit the issuance of bonds or notes under the terms of said sections. Any bonds reciting that they are issued under sections 22a-500 to 22a-519, inclusive, shall, in any action or proceeding involving their validity, be conclusively deemed to be fully authorized by sections 22a-500 to 22a-519, inclusive, and to have been issued, sold, executed and delivered in conformity with this section and with all provisions of statutes applicable thereto and shall be incontestable unless service of process of such action or proceedings are served within sixty days after the approval of their sale.
