The security issued is a general obligation bond.
General obligation (GO) bonds are municipal debt instruments backed by the full faith, credit, and taxing power of the issuing state or local government. Because public projects like high schools do not generate revenue directly, they are typically financed through GO bonds payable from general property (ad valorem) taxes.
