327I.12  Payment of obligations -- nonliability of state.

Obligations issued under this chapter, and judgments based on contract or tort arising from the activities of the authority or persons acting on its behalf, are not a debt or liability of the state or of any political subdivision within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation and are not a pledge of the state's credit or taxing power within the meaning of any constitutional or statutory limitation or provision and no appropriation shall be made, directly or indirectly, by the state or any political subdivision of the state for the payment of the obligations or judgments or to fund any deficiency in any special funds, or for the indemnification of a person subject to a judgment arising from that person's actions on the authority's behalf. These obligations and judgments are special obligations of the authority payable solely and only from the sources and special funds provided in this chapter. Funds from the general fund of the state shall not be used to pay interest or principal on obligations of the authority in the event that receipts from the taxes available as provided in section 327I.23, subsection 2, and section 327I.26 are insufficient.
