	The District reserves the right to rescind the award of the construction contract for which it does not provide funding if for any reason bonds sold or the amount available after the sale of the bonds is less than the amount necessary to pay such contract or if the Board of Directors of the District upholds an objection to the award of the construction contract which requires either abandonment of the Work or rescission of the award of construction contract or if the District does not obtain all rights-of-way necessary for the work.

	If, because of pending or threatened litigation concerning the District, the work or any one or more parcels subject to assessment, the District and the winning bidder receive a written opinion of Bond Counsel stating that bonds cannot be issued  or that bonds can not be issued  against any parcel or parcels, the District may then cause the construction contract to be rescinded or modified to exclude from the applicable contract some or all of the Work which will benefit the parcel or parcels in question.  The filing of a certificate and request that no bonds be issued against any parcel pursuant to ß 48-935, Arizona Revised Statutes, may be deemed to be threatened litigation.
