general circulation in the County and which may also be published
in one or more journals having a circulation primarily among
banks and investment bankers. At least one publication of the
advertisement shall be made not less than ten (10) days before
the sale of bonds.

Upon delivery of any bonds to the purchaser or purchasers,
payment shall be made to the Treasurer of Cecil County or such
other official of the County as may be designated to receive
payment in a resolution passed by the Board of County
Commissioners of Cecil County before delivery.

SECTION 4. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That the net proceeds
of the sale of bonds shall be used and applied exclusively and
solely for the public facilities for which the bonds are sold.
If the net proceeds of the sale of any issue of bonds exceeds the
amount needed to finance the public facilities described in the
resolution, the excess funds shall be applied to the payment of
the next principal maturity of the bonds or to the redemption of
any part of the bonds which have been made redeemable or to the
purchase and cancellation of bonds, unless the County adopts a
resolution allocating the excess funds to the construction,
improvement or development of other public facilities.

SECTION 5. AND BE IT FURTHER ENACTED, That the bonds hereby
authorized shall constitute, and they shall so recite, an
irrevocable pledge of the full faith and credit and unlimited
taxing power of the County to the payment of the maturing
principal of and interest on the bonds as and when they become
payable. In each and every fiscal year that any of the bonds are
outstanding, the County shall levy or cause to be levied ad
valorem taxes upon all the assessable property within the
corporate limits of the County in rate and amount sufficient to
provide for or assume the payment, when due, of the principal of
and interest on all the bonds maturing in each such fiscal year
and, if the proceeds from the taxes so levied in any fiscal year
prove inadequate for such payment, additional taxes shall be
levied in the succeeding fiscal year to make up any deficiency.
The County may apply to the payment of the principal of and
interest on any bonds issued hereunder any funds received by it
from the State of Maryland, the United States of America, any
agency or instrumentality of either, or from any other source.
If such funds are granted for the purpose of assisting the County
in financing the construction, improvement, or development of the
public facilities defined in this Act and, to the extent of any
such funds received or receivable in any fiscal year, taxes that
might otherwise be required to be levied under this Act may be
reduced or need not be levied.
