No such action taken at any special meeting shall be valid unless a majority of all the legal voters are present and vote at such special meeting, unless the governing board of any municipality shall petition the superior court for permission to hold an emergency special meeting, which, if granted, shall give said special meeting the same authority as an annual meeting. The warrant for a special meeting shall be published once in a newspaper having a general circulation in the municipality within one week after the posting of such special meeting.

Amend RSA 33-B:2 to read as follows:\n\n33-B:2 Issuance of Revenue Bonds. A municipality may issue bonds or notes under this chapter for construction of revenue-producing facilities. Bonds issued by a municipality under this chapter shall not be deemed to be a pledge of the faith and credit of the state or of the municipality. Except as otherwise provided in this chapter, the principal of, premium, if any, and interest on all bonds shall be payable solely from the particular funds provided therefor under this chapter. The bonds shall be issued in such amounts as the legislative body may authorize by a [ 2/3] 3/5 vote as required under RSA 33:8 or 33:9, as applicable. Bonds of each issue shall be dated, shall bear interest at such rate or rates, including rates variable from time to time as determined by such index, banker's loan rate or other method as may be determined by the authorized officers, and shall mature at such time or times as may be determined by the authorized officers, except that no bond shall mature more than 40 years from the date of its issue or beyond the expiration of the expected useful life of the facilities being financed by the bonds as determined by the authorized officers. Bonds may be made redeemable before maturity at the option of the municipality at such price or prices and under such terms and conditions as may be fixed by the authorized officers prior to the issue of bonds. The authorized officers shall determine the form and details and the manner of execution of bonds. The municipality may sell its bonds in such manner, either at public or private sale, for such price, at such rate or rates of interest, or at such discount in lieu of interest, as the authorized officers may determine.

The commission in rendering its decision shall, in addition to the other requirements of said RSA 369:1, approve only such issue as the commission finds, after notice and opportunity for hearing, is appropriate to finance an electric power facility which is both consistent with the power needs of the state and necessary to supply the load plus reserve requirements created by the municipality's retail customers, and by such wholesale customers as may have existed on the day of the vote of the municipality, said load plus reserve requirements to be forecast by the municipality at a time 3 years beyond the scheduled date for commencement of commercial operation of the facility; in evaluating the ability of the municipality to supply its load plus reserve requirements at said time, the commission shall deduct from these requirements all capacity in other generating units to which the municipality will then be entitled by ownership or contract, including any contracts for the purchase of electricity to be in force at said time. The project costs to be financed may include finance charges, interest prior to and during the carrying out of any project and for a reasonable period thereafter, prepayments under contracts made pursuant to RSA 374-A:2, the funding of notes issued for project costs as hereinafter provided, such reserves for debt service (including a common reserve for debt service established pursuant to an agreement for consolidation of indebtedness under paragraph VI) or other capital or current expenses as may be required by a trust agreement or resolution securing notes or bonds, and all other expenses incidental to the determination of the feasibility of any project or to carrying out the project or to placing the project in operation.\n\n8 Temporary Notes; Minimum Vote Required.

Subject to the terms of the commission's approval and of the authorizing vote, the municipality may provide for the sale of the notes at public or private sale and may determine the interest rate or rates, maturity or maturities, redemption privileges, if any, form, denomination or denominations and place or places of payment or provide for the determination thereof by the treasurer. Temporary notes issued hereunder shall be executed in the manner provided herein for bonds and shall be payable within 6 years from their respective dates, but the principal of and interest on notes issued for a shorter period may be renewed or paid from time to time by the issue of other notes under this chapter, provided the period from the date of issue of an original note to the maturity of any note issued to renew or pay the same debt or the interest thereon shall not exceed 6 years. Unless otherwise provided in the authorizing vote or in the approval of the commission, the municipality may cause notes to be refunded to the extent provided in this chapter. To the extent of any borrowing in anticipation of bonds, the maximum maturity of an equivalent amount of the bonds shall be measured from the date of the anticipatory borrowing.\n\n9 Revenue Refunding Bonds; Minimum Vote Required. Amend RSA 374-B:12 to read as follows:\n\n374-B:12 Revenue Refunding Bonds. Any municipality having bonds outstanding under this chapter, when authorized by a [ 2/3] 3/5 vote as defined in RSA 33:8 for towns and village districts and in RSA 33:9 for cities, may issue refunding bonds for the purpose of paying bonds issued by or on its behalf, at maturity or upon acceleration or redemption, subject to the approval of the commission under RSA 369:1. The refunding bonds may be issued in sufficient amounts to pay or provide the principal of the bonds being refunded, together with any redemption premium thereon, any interest accrued or to accrue to the date of payment of such bonds, the expenses of issue of the refunding bonds, the expenses of redeeming the bonds being refunded, and such reserves for debt service (including a common reserve for debt service established pursuant to an agreement for consolidation of indebtedness under RSA 374-B:2, VI) or other capital or current expenses from the proceeds of such refunding bonds as may be required by a trust agreement or resolution securing bonds or notes. The refunding bonds may be issued not more than 5 years prior to the maturity or redemption date of bonds being refunded. The issue of refunding bonds, the maturities and other details thereof, the security therefor, the rights of the holders thereof, and the rights, duties and obligations of the municipality in respect of the same shall be governed by the provisions of this chapter relating to the issue of bonds other than refunding bonds insofar as the same may be applicable, but no bonds shall be refunded to a date later than the refunded bonds could have matured hereunder.\n\n10 Effective Date. This act shall take effect January 1, 2000.\n\nLBAO\n\n99-0514\n\n4/1/99\n\nHB 549 FISCAL NOTE\n\nAN ACT relative to the minimum vote required for bond issues by municipalities.\n\nMETHODOLOGY:\n\nThe Department states that bond vote results for 1999 school district meetings indicates that of the 42 proposals voted upon, 19 passed and 23 failed. Had this bill been in effect, changing the minimum vote required for passage, and assuming the same voting count, 26 proposals voted upon would have passed and 16 would have failed. The Department estimates that these additional bond issues would have increased state and local annual expenditures for 20-year bond payments by $688,000 and $1,300,000, respectively, in FY 2001 and each year thereafter. The Department makes no assumption that these bond proposals may or may not pass in subsequent votes at school district meetings.\n\nThe Association states that issuance of bonds as a source of financing may in some situations be financially prudent over other alternatives.", "in_text": [], "chars": 14123}, "nver": 0, "namd": 0, "rsa": {"RSA 33:8": "/laws/33#s8", "RSA 49-B": "/laws/49-b", "RSA 33:8-c": "/laws/33#s8-c", "RSA 374-D:1": "/laws/374-d#s1", "RSA 33:8-d": "/laws/33#s8-d", "RSA 33:9": "/laws/33#s9", "RSA 33-B:2": "/laws/33-b#s2", "RSA 33:11-a": "/laws/33#s11-a", "RSA 374-B:2": "/laws/374-b#s2", "RSA 33:8-a": "/laws/33#s8-a", "RSA 369:1": "/laws/369#s1", "RSA 374-A:2": "/laws/374-a#s2", "RSA 374-B:3": "/laws/374-b#s3", "RSA 369:7": "/laws/369#s7", "RSA 374-B:12": "/laws/374-b#s12"}, "amends": {"RSA 33:8": "/laws/33#s8", "RSA 33:8-c": "/laws/33#s8-c", "RSA 33:8-d": "/laws/33#s8-d", "RSA 33:9": "/laws/33#s9", "RSA 33-B:2": "/laws/33-b#s2", "RSA 374-B:2": "/laws/374-b#s2", "RSA 374-B:3": "/laws/374-b#s3", "RSA 374-B:12": "/laws/374-b#s12"}}
