(a) For purposes of carrying out this chapter, the Director of Finance may, by executive order, authorize the withdrawal from the General Fund of an amount or amounts not to exceed the amount of the unsold bonds which the committee has by resolution authorized to be sold for the purpose of carrying out this chapter. Any amounts withdrawn shall be deposited in the fund and shall be disbursed by the board in accordance with this chapter. These withdrawals from the General Fund shall be returned to the General Fund with interest at the rate which would have otherwise been earned by these sums in the Pooled Money Investment Fund.
(b) The committee may authorize the Treasurer to sell all or any part of the bonds authorized by this chapter at the time or times as may be fixed by the Treasurer.
(c) All proceeds from the sale of bonds, except those derived from premiums and accrued interest, shall be available for the purpose provided in Section 9592 but shall not be available for transfer to the General Fund to pay principal and interest on bonds. The money in the fund may be expended only as provided in this chapter.
