Mississippi Code Title 21. Municipalities § 21-35-21

All emergency expenditures made under the provisions of Section 21-35-19 shall be made by the issuance of emergency warrants drawn against the special fund, or funds, properly chargeable with such expenditures. The municipal depository is authorized and directed to pay such emergency warrants with any money in such fund, or funds, available for such purpose. If at any time there shall not be sufficient money available in such fund, or funds, from usual sources or from grants, transfers or donations, to pay such warrants, then the governing authorities of the municipality are hereby authorized to borrow the required amount, not to exceed the authorized emergency expenditures, in the manner now provided by law, and shall execute the notes of the municipality for the amount borrowed.
