    |
0019|     Tax Bonding Act in an amount not exceeding ninety-seven thousand
    |
0020|     two hundred dollars ($97,200) when the local government division
    |
0021|     of the department of finance and administration certifies the
    |
0022|     need for the issuance of the bonds.  The state board of finance
    |
0023|     shall schedule the issuance and sale of the bonds in the most
    |
0024|     expeditious and economical manner possible upon a finding by the
    |
0025|     board that the project has been developed sufficiently to 
    |
0001|     justify the issuance and that the project can proceed to
    |
0002|     contract within a reasonable time.  The state board of finance
    |
0003|     shall further take the appropriate steps necessary to comply
    |
0004|     with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  The
    |
0005|     proceeds from the sale of the bonds are appropriated to the
    |
0006|     local government division of the department of finance and
    |
0007|     administration for the purpose of designing and constructing a
    |
0008|     daycare facility in Raton located in Colfax county.  Any
    |
0009|     unexpended or unencumbered balance remaining six months after
    |
0010|     completion of the project shall revert to the severance tax
    |
0011|     bonding fund.  If the local government division of the
    |
0012|     department of finance and administration has not certified the
    |
0013|     need for the issuance of the bonds by the end of fiscal year
    |
0014|     1999, the authorization provided in this section shall be void.
    |
0015|       Section 2.  EMERGENCY.--It is necessary for the public
    |
0016|     peace, health and safety that this act take effect immediately.
