General obligation bonds.
Summary
The State General Obligation Bond Law generally provides for a procedure that may be adopted by other acts, with any necessary modifications, to authorize the issuance and sale of state general obligation bonds, including general obligation bonds to be issued as zero coupon or capital appreciation bonds, and to provide for the repayment of those bonds. Existing law requires, with regard to a resolution determining that the sale of all or part of the bonds is necessary or desirable, a specification that the denomination of the bonds to be sold shall be $1,000 or multiples of that sum. This bill would instead require a specification that the denomination of the bonds to be sold shall be $25 or multiples of that sum.
