Gov't Code Section 489.256
Refunding Bonds
(a)
Bonds issued under Section 489.253 (Revenue-based Bonds Authorized) may be refunded by the bank by the issuance of the bank’s refunding bonds in the amount that the bank considers necessary to refund the unpaid principal of the refunded bonds, together with any unpaid interest, premiums, expenses, and commissions required to be paid in connection with the refunded bonds. Refunding may be effected whether the refunded bonds have matured or are to mature later, either by sale of the refunding bonds or by exchange of the refunding bonds for the refunded bonds.(b)
A holder of refunded bonds may not be compelled to surrender the bonds for payment or exchange before the date on which the bonds are payable, or, if the bonds are called for redemption, before the date on which they are by their terms subject to redemption.(c)
Refunding bonds having a final maturity not to exceed that permitted for other bonds issued under Section 489.253 (Revenue-based Bonds Authorized) may be issued under the same terms and conditions provided by this subchapter for the issuance of bonds or may be issued in the manner provided by statute, including Chapters 1207 (Refunding Bonds) and 1371 (Obligations for Certain Public Improvements).
