Bonds of the authority may be in such form and denominations, may be of such tenor, may be payable in such installments and at such time or times not exceeding 30 years from their date, may be payable at such place or places, may be redeemable at such times and under such conditions, may bear interest at such rate or rates payable and evidenced in such manner or may be structured to bear no interest or to reflect compound interest and may be secured in such manner, all as shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this article and as may be provided in the proceedings of the board of directors whereunder said bonds shall be authorized to be issued. Bonds of the authority may be sold at such price or prices and at such time or times as the board of directors may consider advantageous, either at public or private sale and by negotiation or by competitve bid. Bonds of the authority sold by competitive bid must be sold, whether on sealed bids or at public auction to the bidder whose bid reflects the lowest net interest cost to the authority for the bonds being sold, computed from their date to their respective maturities; provided, that if no bid acceptable to the authority is received, it may reject all bids. The authority may fix the terms and conditions under which each sale of bonds may be held; provided, that such terms and conditions shall not conflict with any of the requirements of this article.

Neither a public hearing nor consent of the state Department of Finance of any other department or agency of the state shall be a prerequisite to the issuance of bonds by the authority. All bonds issued by the authority shall contain a recital that they are issued pursuant to the provisions of this article, which recital shall be conclusive evidence that the said bonds have been duly authorized pursuant to the provisions of this article.
