AN ACT TO AMEND ACT 518 OF 1980, AS AMENDED, RELATING TO THE UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA ATHLETIC FACILITIES REVENUE BONDS, SO AS TO RAISE THE OUTSTANDING DEBT LIMIT FOR THESE BONDS FROM FORTY MILLION TO SIXTY MILLION DOLLARS.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of South Carolina:

References

SECTION1.By Act 302 of 1996 and Act 6 of 1997, the General Assembly purported to amend Section 9C of Act 518 of 1980. The adopted amendments were intended to amend Section 9D of Act 518 of 1980, as evidenced by both the caption of the subsection and its content. Therefore, Act 302 of 1996 and Act 6 of 1997 are amended to correct the reference and change it to Section 9D of Act 518 of 1980 instead of Section 9C.

Additional bonds authorized

SECTION2.Section 9D of Act 518 of 1980, as last amended by Act 6 of 1997, is further amended to read:

“D.May Issue Bonds.

Subject to obtaining the approval of the state board expressed by resolution duly adopted, the trustees are authorized to issue from time to time not exceeding sixty million dollars of bonds for the purpose of acquiring, constructing, reconstructing, renovating, or equipping athletic facilities and for the purpose of refunding any previous series of bonds authorized by this section. If the trustees, in authorizing the issuance of bonds pursuant to this section, prescribe by resolution that there must be on deposit in the Bond Reserve Fund certain sums at the time of the delivery of the bonds, the trustees are empowered to utilize a portion of the proceeds of any series of bonds issued pursuant to this section in order to meet the requirement.”

Time effective

SECTION3.This act takes effect upon approval by the Governor.

Ratified the 28th day of April, 2005.

Approved the 3rd day of May, 2005.
