Code of Alabama
Chapter 61A - Municipal Parking Authority.
Section 11-61A-15 - Issuance of Bonds.

(a) The authority may issue bonds under and secured by an indenture between the authority and a trustee. The trustee may be a private person or corporation, including, but not limited to, any trust company or bank having trust powers, whether the bank or trust company is located within or without the state.
(b) In any indenture or resolution providing for the issuance of bonds, the authority may pledge, for payment of the principal of and the interest on the bonds, any of its revenues to which its right then exists or may subsequently come into existence and may assign, as security for the payment, any of its leases, franchises, permits, and contracts. In any such indenture the authority may mortgage any of its properties, including any properties subsequently acquired by it. Any pledge of revenues shall be valid and binding from the time it is made, and the revenues pledged and subsequently received by the authority, and any property of the authority mortgaged shall immediately become subject to the lien of the pledge without any physical delivery or further act. The lien of the pledge shall be valid and binding against all parties having claims of any kind in tort, contract, or otherwise against the authority, irrespective of whether the parties have actual notice thereof, from the time a statement is filed in the office of the judge of probate of the county in which the principal office of the authority is located. The notice shall state only the date on which the resolution authorizing the issuance of the bonds was adopted by the board, the principal amount of bonds issued, a brief description of the revenues so pledged, and a brief description of any property mortgaged or any property from which the revenue is pledged.
(c) In any indenture or resolution authorizing the issuance of bonds and pledging for the benefit thereof revenues from any one or more of its parking facilities, the authority may include provisions customarily contained in instruments securing evidence of indebtedness. These provisions may include, but shall not be limited to, each of the following:
(1) Collection, segregation, and application of any rental or other revenues due to or to become due to the authority.
(2) The terms to be incorporated in any lease agreement respecting any property of the authority.
(3) The maintenance and insurance of any building or structure owned by the authority.
(4) The creation and maintenance of special funds from any revenue of the authority.
(5) The rights and remedies available in the event of default to the holder of the bonds or the trustee under the indenture.
(d) In case of default by the authority in payment of the principal of, or the interest on the bonds, or in any of the agreements on the part of the authority that may properly be included in any indenture securing the bonds, any holder of any of the bonds or any of the coupons, or the trustee under any indenture if so authorized in the indenture, may, in addition to any other available remedies, either at law or in equity, by suit, action, mandamus, or other proceedings, enforce payment of the principal or interest and compel performance of all duties of the board and officers of the authority. The holder shall be entitled as a matter of right and regardless of the sufficiency of any security to the appointment of a receiver in equity with all the powers of the receiver for the operation and maintenance of the property of the authority covered by the indenture and the collection, segregation, and application of revenues therefrom. The indenture may also contain provisions restricting the individual rights of action of the holders of the bonds and coupons.
