Sec. 21. (a) The authority may secure bonds issued under this chapter by a trust indenture between the authority and a corporate trustee, which may be any trust company or national or state bank within Indiana that has trust powers.
(b) Before a trust indenture may be entered into, the authority must obtain the prior approval of the fiscal body of the unit under IC 36-7-14-25.2. The trust indenture may:
(1) pledge or assign lease rentals, receipts, and income from leased local public improvements, but may not mortgage land or local public improvements;
(2) contain reasonable and proper provisions for protecting and enforcing the rights and remedies of the bondholders, including covenants setting forth the duties of the authority and board;
(3) set forth the rights and remedies of bondholders and trustee; and
(4) restrict the individual right of action of bondholders.
(c) Any pledge or assignment made by the authority under this section and approved by the fiscal body of the unit is valid and binding in accordance with IC 5-1-14-4 from the time that the pledge or assignment is made, against all persons whether they have notice of the lien or not. Any trust indenture by which a pledge is created or an assignment need not be filed or recorded. The lien is perfected against third parties in accordance with IC 5-1-14-4.
