A copy, taken August 21, 2026. The version published by Maui County is the one that governs, and it may have changed since. Check it before relying on anything here.

The director of finance shall sell the bonds to be issued to the highest bidder therefor, after public advertisement for tenders for at least once each week for not less than two successive weeks in a newspaper of general circulation in the county; provided, however, the council may, by resolution, authorize sale thereof by the director of finance at private sale upon such terms as provided in the resolution. In the event no purchaser is found, the county may be the purchaser of any such bonds, using any funds available and unspent. Bonds sold to a purchaser other than the county may be sold for such discount as is acceptable to the council. Upon sale of the bonds, the director of finance shall be responsible for all acts necessary to complete such sale and shall receive the proceeds thereof. Proceeds of bonds sold, less only the amount of any reserve fund to be established therefrom pursuant to section 14.52.070 , shall be credited to the improvement account of the special fund referred to in section 14.50.230 . (Ord. 801 § 1 (part), 1974: prior code § 25-8.2)
