36210. Whenever a district has any of its unsold general obligation
bonds which it is not necessary to sell for the purpose of raising
funds, the board may, at a general election, or at a special election
called for the purpose, submit the proposition of whether or not the
bonds should be destroyed.

36211. The notice of the election at which general obligation bonds
are proposed to be destroyed shall specify, in addition to the
requirements provided in Section 35002:
(a) The amount of the bonded indebtedness authorized.
(b) The amount of the bonds remaining unsold.
(c) The amount of bonds proposed to be destroyed.

36212. If at the time the vote cast at the election is canvassed a
two-thirds majority of the votes cast upon the proposition favors the
destruction of the unsold general obligation bonds, the president,
in the presence of a majority of the members of the board, shall
destroy the bonds.

36213. The amount of the general obligation bonds destroyed shall
be deducted from the total amount authorized to be issued and no part
of the bonds destroyed shall thereafter be reprinted or reissued.

36213.1. If the unsold general obligation bonds shall not have been

unprinted bonds shall be revoked. If two-thirds of the votes cast
upon the proposition favor such revocation, the authority to issue
and sell said unprinted bonds shall be revoked, the amount thereof
deducted from the total amount authorized to be issued, and no part
of said bonds shall thereafter be printed or issued.

purposes, and to pay every obligation of the district that is due
and payable or that will, or probably will, become due and payable

obtained for liquidation.
