No municipality shall pledge its faith and credit for the payment of any debt incurred or bonds issued by such corporation. (b) When any such corporation shall have borrowed money and issued its bonds payable from the revenues of its systems, or either of them, it shall charge, collect, and account for revenues from the operation of such system or systems sufficient to pay the principal of and the interest on said bonds as such principal and interest respectively mature, to pay the costs of operating and maintaining such system or systems and to create and maintain any reserves or special funds which may be provided for in the proceedings authorizing the issuance of the bonds.

The formation and dissolution of one or more corporations under the provisions of this division shall not prevent the subsequent formation hereunder of another corporation.
