The obligees of the authority shall have the right to enforce a pledge of or security interest in revenues of the authority securing payment of bonds of the authority against all government agencies in possession of any such revenues at any time, which revenues may be collected directly from such officials upon notice by such obligees or a trustee for such obligees for application to the payment of such bonds as and when due or for deposits in any sinking, bond or debt service fund established by this act or established by resolution of the authority with such trustee at the times and in the amounts specified in such bonds or the resolution or indenture or trust agreement securing such bonds. Any government agency in possession of any such revenues shall make payment against receipt and shall thereby be discharged from any further liability or responsibility for such revenues. If such payment shall be to a holder of bonds, it shall be made against surrender of such bonds to the payor for delivery to the authority in the case of payment in full; otherwise, it shall be made against production of such bonds for notation thereon of the amount of the payment. The provisions of this section with respect to the enforceability and collection of revenues which secure bonds shall supersede any contrary or inconsistent statutory provision or rule of law. This section shall be construed and applied to fulfill the legislative purpose of clarifying and facilitating the financing of the authority of the costs of assisting a city by assuring to the obligees of the authority the full and immediate benefit of the security for the bonds without delay, diminution or interference based on any statute, decision, ordinance or administrative rule or practice.
