(2) Any uncommitted or unencumbered proceeds of bonds available or to become available from bonds authorized by the Legislature.
No contract involving the expenditure of money, whether now or later, shall be approved or ratified by the board of directors unless the resolution approving or ratifying the same shall include a determination that there will be compliance with the preceding limitation when the amount of the obligation of the contract in question has been added to the already existing obligations of the authority. This determination by the board of directors shall be conclusive of the question of compliance.
All contracts of the authority for the construction, reconstruction, relocation, maintenance and operation of highways, roads and bridges, and work incidental or related thereto, and the acquisition of property necessary therefor, shall be in writing, shall be subject to the rules and regulations and shall be let under the supervision of the State Department of Transportation, and shall be subject to approval by the Governor and by the State Department of Transportation.
