Mississippi Code Title 17. Local Government; Provisions Common to Counties and Municipalities § 17-17-331. Interim borrowing by authority

(1) Pending the issuance of revenue bonds by the authority, the authority is hereby authorized to make temporary borrowings not to exceed two (2) years in anticipation of the issue of bonds in order to provide funds in such amounts as may, from time to time, be deemed advisable prior to the issue of bonds.  To provide for such temporary borrowings, the authority may enter into any purchase, loan or credit agreement, or agreements or other agreement or agreements with any banks or trust companies or other lending institutions, investment banking firms or persons in the United States having power to enter into the same.  The agreements may contain such provisions not inconsistent with Sections 17-17-301 through 17-17-349 as may be authorized by the board.

(2) All temporary borrowings made under this section shall be evidenced by notes of the authority which shall be issued, from time to time, for such amounts, in such form and in such denominations and subject to terms and conditions of sale and issue, prepayment or redemption and maturity, rate or rates of interest and time of payment of interest as the board shall authorize and direct and in accordance with Sections 17-17-301 through 17-17-349.  Such authorization and direction may provide for the subsequent issuance of replacement notes to refund, upon issuance thereof, such notes, and may specify such other terms and conditions with respect to the notes and replacement notes thereby authorized for issuance as the board may determine and direct.
