The resolution of the board or trust indenture that provides for the issuance of bonds may contain provisions creating a statutory mortgage lien, in favor of the holders of the bonds and of the interest coupons on the transit systems, including any after acquired property out of the revenues from which the bonds are made payable. The resolution of the board or the trust indenture may provide for the filing for record in the office of the judge of probate of each county in which any part of the transit system may be located of a notice containing a brief description of the systems, a brief description of the bonds, and a declaration that the statutory mortgage lien has been created for the benefit of the holders of the bonds and the interest coupons applicable to the bonds upon the systems, including any additions or extensions to the system. Each judge of probate shall receive, record, and index the notice filed for record in his or her office. The recording of the notice shall operate as constructive notice of the contents.
