    |
0022|     ($105,000) when the local government division of the department
    |
0023|     of finance and administration certifies the need for the
    |
0024|     issuance of the bonds.  The state board of finance shall
    |
0025|     schedule the issuance and sale of the bonds in the most
    |
0001|     expeditious and economical manner possible upon a finding by the
    |
0002|     board that the project has been developed sufficiently to
    |
0003|     justify the issuance and that the project can proceed to
    |
0004|     contract within a reasonable time.  The state board of finance
    |
0005|     shall further take the appropriate steps necessary to comply
    |
0006|     with the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.  The
    |
0007|     proceeds from the sale of the bonds are appropriated to the

0016|            B.  Any unexpended or unencumbered balance remaining
    |
0017|     at the end of fiscal year 1999 shall revert to the severance tax
    |
0018|     bonding fund.  If the local government division of the
    |
0019|     department of finance and administration has not certified the
    |
0020|     need for the issuance of the bonds by the end of fiscal year
    |
0021|     1998, the authorization provided in this section shall be void.
