(b) The governing body of the municipality may issue the bonds in an amount sufficient to pay: (1) the cost of providing the facilities described by Section 1501.253(d), including any land, easement, or right-of-way needed for a facility; and (2) interest during construction. (c) The ordinance may reserve the right, and specify the conditions under which the right may be exercised, to issue additional revenue bonds on a parity with or subordinate to the original bonds. (d) The ordinance must provide that all deposits to the credit of the interest and sinking fund, the reserve fund, or another fund must be made from the revenue from the waterworks system of the municipality, or the waterworks and sanitary sewer system of the municipality if those systems are combined.
