Chap. 200.—An ACT to validate bonds issued, and all bonds authorized prior
to January 1, 1938, to be issued whether heretofore issued or not, by the
county school board and/or the Board of Supervisors, of any county, for
the purpose of erecting or improving school houses in any school district
of such county, and for funding outstanding floating indebtedness of such
school district to a town located in such school district. [S B 211]

Approved March 18, 1938

1. Be it enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia, That any
and all bonds heretofore, and since July first, nineteen hundred and
thirty-six, issued by the county school board, and/or the board of
supervisors of any county, and all bonds authorized prior to January
first, nineteen hundred and thirty-eight, to be issued, whether here-
tofore actually issued and delivered or not, for the purpose of erect-
ing or improving school houses in any school district of said county,
and for funding outstanding floating indebtedness of such district
to any town located therein for money advanced by any such town
or expended by any such town for the erection or repair of a school
building or buildings in said school district, whether such indebted-
ness was legally enforceable or not, or whether evidenced in writing
or not, be, and the same are hereby, validated and declared to be
valid and binding obligations of the county and/or of the school dis-
trict for whose benefit such bonds were, or may hereafter be, issued.
Neither the fact that the entire issue of such bonds was approved or
authorized by a single election, held by virtue of a single resolution
of a school board, and/or a single order of a board of supervisors,
and/or a single order of the appropriate court, where it shall appear
that the said resolutions and the court proceeding, and the orders
entered therein, substantially conformed to the provisions of section
six hundred and seventy-three of the Code and chapter three hundred
and forty-six of the Acts of the General Assembly of Virginia of
nineteen hundred and thirty-six, nor the fact that neither of said
statutes was specifically mentioned in said resolutions or court pro-
ceedings shall be deemed to affect the validity of, or render invalid, any
such bonds. Any such bonds authorized by any such proceedings,
prior to January first, nineteen hundred and thirty-eight, and not here-
tofore issued and/or delivered may hereafter be issued and/or delivered
at any time prior to January first, nineteen hundred and thirty-nine, and
shall be valid and enforceable obligations of any such county and/or
school district from the date of such delivery.

2. An emergency existing, this act shall be in force from its
passage.
