(a) That the local unit of general government has a contract with an individual, partnership or corporation to lease the property to be acquired with the proceeds of the industrial development bonds for occupancy and use in connection with the conduct of an industrial enterprise for a period of years, and for the lessee to pay an annual rental adequate to meet interest and principal payments falling due during the term of the lease:
(b) That the lessee of the property is a responsible party;
(c) That the contract for lease of the property provides for:
(1) The reasonable maintenance, less normal wear and tear, of the property by the lessee;
(2) insurance to be carried on the property and the use and disposition of insurance moneys;
(3) the rights of the local unit of general government and the lessee respecting the disposition of the property financed by the proposed industrial development bonds upon retirement of the bonds or termination of the contract by expiration or by failure to comply with any of the provisions thereof; and

History: L. 1974, ch. 49, § 4; July 1.
(b) The principal and interest of all bonds issued under the provisions of this act shall be payable from revenue derived from the leasing or rental of buildings and facilities acquired or constructed with the proceeds received from the sale of such bonds. Whenever by reason of the failure of any lessee to make payment under any contract for the leasing or rental of any such building or facility, it becomes necessary for the local unit of general government to assume the responsibility for the payment of principal and interest upon bonds issued under the provisions of this act, such local unit of general government may issue no-fund warrants in an amount necessary to make such payment. Such warrants shall be issued, registered, redeemed and bear interest in the manner and be in the form prescribed by K.S.A. 79-2940, and amendments thereto, except they shall not bear the notation required by said section and may be issued without approval of the state board of tax appeals. The governing body of such unit of government shall make a tax levy at the time fixed for the certification of tax levies to the county clerk next following the issuance of such warrants sufficient to pay such warrants and the interest thereon. All such tax levies shall be in addition to all other levies authorized or limited by law.
(c) Property acquired or improved under the provisions of this act shall be subject to ad valorem taxation as other property.
