1459 - Notes of authority.

§  1459.  Notes of authority. The authority shall have power from time  to time to issue its negotiable  notes  in  conformity  with  applicable  provisions of the uniform commercial code and from time to time to issue  renewal notes (herein referred to as notes) maturing not later than five  years from their respective original dates in an amount not exceeding at  any  time  two hundred fifty thousand dollars, over and above the amount  of bonds authorized by subdivision one  of  section  one  thousand  four  hundred fifty-eight of this title, for any purpose or purposes for which  bonds may be issued, whenever the authority shall determine that payment  thereof  can  be  made  in  full  from  any moneys or revenues which the  authority expects to receive from any  source.  Such  notes  may,  among  other  things,  be  issued  to provide funds to pay preliminary costs of  surveys, plans or other matters relating to any  proposed  project.  The  authority  may  pledge  such  moneys  or  revenues (subject to any other  pledge thereof) for the payment of the notes and may in addition  secure  the notes in the same manner and with the same effect as herein provided  for  bonds.  The  notes shall be issued in the same manner as bonds. The  authority shall have power to make contracts for the  future  sale  from  time to time of the notes, by which the purchasers shall be committed to  purchase  the  notes from time to time on terms and conditions stated in  such  contracts,  and  the  authority  shall  have  power  to  pay  such  consideration  as  it shall deem proper for such commitments. In case of  default on its notes, or violation of any  of  the  obligations  of  the  authority  to  the  noteholders,  the  noteholders  shall  have  all the  remedies provided herein for bondholders.
