In addition, the board may guarantee the refunding of bonds issued on or before November 1, 2001, provided the refunding is not combined with any bonds issued after November 1, 2001. A decision by the board not to guarantee bonds under this section is not subject to judicial review under the Wyoming Administrative Procedure Act (W.S. 16 ‑ 3 ‑ 101 through 16 ‑ 3 ‑ 115). Section 2.
