No such bonds shall be issued until authorized by resolution specifying the purpose for which the funds are to be used and the proposed undertaking, the amount of bonds to be issued and the maximum rate of interest the bonds are to bear. The resolution shall further provide that the sanitary works, appurtenances or extensions are to be acquired pursuant to the provisions of KRS

When applied to sanitation districts, terms used in KRS § 107.010 to KRS § 107.220 shall be construed to mean the following: “city” means “district”; “ordinance” means “resolution”; “clerk” means “secretary” or “secretary- treasurer”; “governing body” means “board of directors”; and “mayor” means “president of the board of directors.” The provisions of this subsection shall not repeal or reduce any existing rights or duties of the district but shall constitute an additional method of financing.
