So long as any of the Bonds are outstanding and any principal of or interest thereon unpaid, the Finance Director shall maintain a separate and special bookkeeping fund designated "2008A Street Reconstruction Bond Fund" (fire `Bond Fund") to be used for no purpose other than the payment of the principal of and interest on the Bonds and on such other Street Reconstruction Bonds of the City as have been or maybe directed to be paid therefrom.

If the balance in the Bond Fund is at any time insufficient to pay all interest and principal then due on all bonds payable therefrom, the payment shall be made from any fund of the City which is available for that purpose, subject to reimbursement from the Bond Fund when the balance therein is sufficient, and the Council covenants and agrees that it will each year levy a sufficient amount to take care of any accumulated or anticipated deficiency, which levy is not subject to any constitutional or statutory tax limitation. There are hereby established two accounts in the Bond Fund, designated as the "Debt Service Account' and the "Surplus Account." All money appropriated or to be deposited in the Bond Fund shall be deposited as received into the Debt Service Account. On each February 1, the Finance Director shall determine the amount on hand in the Debt Service Account. If such amount is in excess of one -twelfth of the debt service payable from the Bond Fund in the immediately preceding 12 months, the Finance Director shall promptly transfer the amount in excess to the Surplus Account. The City appropriates to the Surplus Account any amounts to be transferred thereto from the Debt Service Account as herein provided and all income derived from the investment of amounts on hand in the Surplus Account.
