40:48H-5 Assignment of proceeds to trustee.
23. An ordinance imposing a tax pursuant to sections 19 through 27 of P.L.2009, c.90 (C.40:48H-1 et seq.) may authorize the municipality to assign all or any portion or percentage of the proceeds thereof directly to the trustee for any bonds issued pursuant to section 24 of P.L.2009, c.90 (C.40:48H-6), as payment or security for the bonds. Notwithstanding any law to the contrary, the assignment shall be an absolute assignment of all of the municipality's right, title and interest in the tax proceeds, or portion or percentage thereof. Tax proceeds assigned to the trustee pursuant to this section shall be paid directly by the municipality's chief financial officer to the trustee, and accordingly such assigned tax proceeds shall not be included in the general funds of the municipality, nor shall they be subject to any laws regarding the receipt, deposit, investment, or appropriation of public funds; and they shall retain such status notwithstanding enforcement of the payment by the municipality or assignee.
