N.M. Stat. § 72-19-83
Limitations upon issuance.
No bonds may be refunded under the Southern Sandoval County Arroyo Flood
Control Act unless the holders of the bonds voluntarily surrender them for exchange or
payment or unless they either mature or are callable for prior redemption under their
terms within ten years from the date of issuance of the refunding bonds. Provision shall
be made for paying the bonds within that period of time. No maturity of any bonds
refunded may be extended over fifteen years nor may any interest on the bonds be
increased to any coupon rate exceeding the maximum net effective interest rate
permitted by the Public Securities Act [6-14-1 to 6-14-3 NMSA 1978]. The principal
amount of the refunding bonds may exceed the principal amount of the refunded bonds
if the aggregate principal and interest costs of the refunding bonds do not exceed such
unaccrued costs of the bonds refunded. The principal amount of the refunding bonds
may also be less than or the same as the principal amount of the bonds refunded so
long as provision is duly and sufficiently made for their payment.
