§ 43740 Bond Redemption Notice Requirements

Key Takeaways

  • •If the government has enough money, they can pay back old debts like bonds or notes early.
  • •They must announce in a local newspaper for two weeks that they are ready to pay these debts.
  • •If the debt isn't claimed within 30 days after the first announcement, the interest on it stops.

Example

Imagine the city owes you money because you hold an old bond, and they have enough cash to pay it back.

The city will put an ad in the newspaper for two weeks saying they’re ready to pay you. If you don’t come forward to collect your money within 30 days after the first ad, they’ll stop paying you interest on that bond.

§ 43740 Bond Redemption Notice Requirements

When sufficient money is in the funding fund to redeem one or more outstanding past due bonds, warrants, judgments, notes, or other evidences of indebtedness or to redeem one or more of the outstanding bonds, warrants, notes, or other evidences of indebtedness which are subject to call or payment before maturity, and which are proposed to be funded or refunded, the treasurer shall publish a notice that he is prepared to pay the bond, warrant, judgment, note, or other evidence of indebtedness (giving its number, if any). The notice shall be published once a week for two weeks in a newspaper of general circulation published in the city, if there is one. If the bond, warrant, judgment, note, or other evidence of indebtedness is not presented for redemption within thirty days after the first publication of the notice, the interest upon it ceases.
