(1) Bonds and notes issued by the authority shall not constitute or become an indebtedness, a debt, or a liability of the state, nor shall the state be liable on such bonds and notes, nor shall such bonds or notes constitute the giving, pledging, or loaning of the full faith and credit of the state, but such bonds and notes shall be payable solely from the funds provided for in this article. The issuance of bonds or notes under the provisions of this article shall not obligate the state or empower the authority, directly, indirectly, or contingently, to levy or collect any form of taxes or assessments, to create any indebtedness payable out of taxes or assessments, or to make any appropriation for their payment, and such appropriation, levy, or collection is prohibited.
(2) Nothing in this section shall prevent or be construed to prevent the authority from pledging its full faith and credit to the payment of bonds or notes authorized pursuant to this article, but nothing in this article shall be construed to authorize the authority to create a debt of the state within the meaning of the constitution or statutes of Colorado; and all bonds issued by the authority pursuant to the provisions of this article are payable and shall state that they are payable solely from the funds pledged for their payment in accordance with the resolution authorizing their issuance or with any trust indenture executed as security for such bonds and are not a debt or liability of the state of Colorado.
(3) The state shall not be liable in any event for the payment of the principal of or interest on any bonds of the authority or for the performance of any pledge, obligation, or agreement of any kind whatsoever which may be undertaken by the authority.
