future its Non -Ad Valorem Revenues, nor does it require the City to levy and collect any particular <br />Non -Ad Valorem Revenues, nor does it give the holder of the Bond a prior claim on the Non -Ad <br />Valorem Revenues as opposed to claims of general creditors of such City. Such covenant to budget <br />and appropriate Non -Ad Valorem Revenues is subject in all respects to the payment of obligations <br />secured by a pledge of such Non -Ad Valorem Revenues heretofore or hereafter entered into <br />(including the payment of debt service on bonds and other debt instruments). However, the <br />covenant to budget and appropriate for the purposes and in the manner stated herein shall have the <br />effect of making available for the payment of the Bond, in the manner described herein, Non -Ad <br />Valorem Revenues, and placing on the City a positive duty to appropriate and budget, by <br />amendment, if necessary, amounts which, together with the Pledged Revenues, are sufficient to <br />meet its obligations hereunder; subject, however, to the payment of services and programs which <br />are for essential public purposes affecting the health, welfare and safety of the inhabitants of the <br />City or which are legally mandated by applicable law. <br />SECTION 5. TAXING POWER NOT PLEDGED. The Bond issued under the <br />provisions of this Ordinance shall not be deemed to constitute a pledge of the faith and credit of <br />the City, but the Bond shall be payable from the Pledged Revenues in the manner and to the extent <br />provided herein and in the Resolution, unless otherwise paid by such entity as shall provide credit <br />enhancement on the Bond, if any. The issuance of the Bond under the provisions of this Ordinance <br />shall not directly, indirectly or contingently obligate the City to levy or to pledge any form of ad <br />valorem taxation whatever therefore. The holders of the Bond shall never have the right to compel <br />any exercise of the ad valorem taxing power on the part of the City to pay any of the Bond or the <br />interest thereon against any property of the City, nor shall the Bond constitute a charge, lien or <br />encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon any property of the City except the Pledged Revenues as <br />provided in the Resolution. <br />SECTION 6. TRUST FUNDS. All moneys received pursuant to the authority of this <br />Ordinance, whether as proceeds from the sale of the Bond or the Pledged Revenues, shall be <br />deemed to be trust funds, to be held and applied solely as provided in this Ordinance and in the <br />Resolution. The Pledged Revenues upon receipt thereof by the City shall automatically and <br />without any further action of the City be subject to the lien and pledge in favor of the holders of <br />the Bond or any entity providing credit enhancement on the Bond. Such Pledged Revenues may <br />be invested by the City, or its designee, in such manner as provided in the Resolution. <br />SECTION 7. REMEDIES OF HOLDERS OF BOND. The holders of the Bond, except <br />to the extent the rights herein given may be restricted by the Resolution, may, whether at law or in <br />equity, by suit, action, mandamus or other proceeding, protect and enforce and compel the <br />performance of all duties required hereby, or by such Resolution, to be performed by the City. <br />SECTION 8. ALTERNATIVE METHOD. This Ordinance shall be deemed to provide <br />an additional and alternative method for the doing of things authorized hereby and shall be <br />regarded as supplemental and additional to powers conferred by other laws, and shall not be <br />regarded as in derogation of any powers now existing or which may hereafter come into existence. <br />This Ordinance, being necessary for the health, safety and welfare of the inhabitants and /or <br />property owners of the City, shall be liberally construed to effect the purposes hereof. <br />Ordinance 19-1517 <br />Page 4 <br />
