Investopedia explains Revenue Bond
This differs from general-obligation bonds, which can be repaid through a variety of tax sources. Revenue bonds are only payable from specified revenues.

A main reason for using revenue bonds is that they allow the municipality to avoid reaching legislated debt limits.
