California Code
ARTICLE 11 - General Obligation Bonds
Section 5790.5.

5790.5. (a) The board of directors may provide for the issuance of bonds in any amounts, in any series, and on any terms, provided that they do not exceed the limits approved by the voters.

(b) The board of directors shall adopt a resolution prescribing the form and denomination of the bonds. The resolution shall specify the dates on which all or any part of the principal shall become due and payable. The payment of the first installment or principal may be deferred for a maximum period not to exceed five years from the date on which the board of directors issues the first bonds or first bonds in each series.

(c) The bonds shall be dated, numbered consecutively, and signed by the chair of the board of directors and the treasurer. Signatures may be facsimiles and may be mechanically reproduced by any means, provided that one of the signatures shall be signed by hand. If the chair of the board of directors or the treasurer whose signature appears on a bond ceases to hold that office before the delivery of the bonds to the purchaser, the signature is nevertheless valid for all purposes connected with that bond.

(d) The board of directors may provide for the call and redemption of bonds before their maturity at times and prices and upon any other terms as it specifies.
