(a) Bonds issued under this chapter do not constitute a debt or liability of the state or of any political subdivision thereof, other than the bank or a special purpose trust, and do not constitute a pledge of the full faith and credit of the state or any of its political subdivisions, other than the bank or special purpose trust, but are payable solely from the funds provided therefor under this chapter and shall be consistent with Sections 1 and 18 of Article XVI of the California Constitution. This subdivision shall in no way preclude bond guarantees or enhancements pursuant to this title. All the bonds shall contain on the face thereof a statement to the following effect:
“Neither the full faith and credit nor the taxing power of the State of California is pledged to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, this bond.”
(b) The issuance of bonds under this chapter shall not directly or indirectly or contingently obligate the state or any political subdivision thereof to levy or to pledge any form of taxation therefor or to make any appropriation for their payment. Nothing in this section shall prevent, or be construed to prevent, the bank from pledging the full faith and credit of the infrastructure bank fund to the payment of bonds or issuance of bonds authorized pursuant to this chapter.
