A.

1. To acquire real property, together with improvements thereon;
2. To construct buildings and other improvements to real property;
3. To provide repairs, renovations, and improvements to real property and other fixed assets; and
4. To defease or refund bonds or other obligations of a qualified issuer which were issued to finance a capital project as defined herein; and further, to fund necessary bond reserves and to pay costs of issuance of any obligations issued under this act.1
C. The Authority shall not issue bonds for loans, lease-purchase agreements, or other forms of indebtedness for a qualified issuer pursuant to the Military Base Protection and Expansion Incentive Act except upon the certification by the qualified issuer that it has received or will receive an amount sufficient to repay the indebtedness as a result of a voter-approved incentive derived from a tax levy.
