Revenue Bonds

If the capital improvement is for income producing services, such as water and sewer, the local government should consider the issuance of revenue bonds. When revenue bonds are issued, the income or revenues from the project are pledged to secure the debt. The debt will be retired from revenues or income from the user charges. These bonds may be issued under T.C.A. §§ 9-21-301 through 9-21-316.
