OUTSTANDING GENERAL OBLIGATION DEBT
General obligation (GO) debt is generated from issuing bonds secured by a local government’s ad valorem taxing power, which are issued following a bond election. This type of financing vehicle is typically best suited for major capital projects where the local government believes that it is important to allow the voters to have the opportunity to pass upon the project.

BONDS
Used to finance public projects such as roads, schools, airports and seaports, and infrastructure-related repairs, bonds are an important financial tool for local governments.
Authorized but unissued debt includes bond projects authorized by voted bond propositions, but tax bonds have not yet been issued.
A capital appreciation bond (CAB) is another debt instrument used to fund capital projects. Unlike conventional bonds, where principal and interest payments are made in installments, CABs require no payments of any kind until maturity.
Take a look at the Comptroller's Fiscal Note that further explains CABs as a finance option for local governments.
