(b)

The district may:

(1)

set, charge, impose, and collect fees, charges, or tolls for the use of the public transit system or the public parking facilities; and

(2)

issue bonds or notes to finance the cost of these facilities.

(c)

If the district pays for or finances the cost of acquiring and operating a public transit system or a system of public parking facilities with resources other than assessments, a petition of property owners or public hearing is not required, just as a petition of property owners and public hearing on the petition are not required for the provision of all other district services and improvements that are not paid for or financed with assessments. Notwithstanding this subsection, a petition is required as provided by Section 3818.151 (Public Transit System; Petition Required) before the district may construct transit improvements.
