Sec. 1. Whenever it is found by the board of school trustees or
other proper authorities of any school city or school town that an
emergency exists for the borrowing of money with which to meet the
current expenses of the schools of such school town or school city,
the board of school trustees or other proper authorities of such school
city or school town may make temporary loans in anticipation of the
current revenues of such school town or school city to an amount not
exceeding fifty percent (50%) of the amount of taxes actually levied
and in the course of collection for the fiscal year in which such loans
are made. Revenues shall be deemed to be current and taxes shall be
deemed to have been actually levied and in the course of collection
when the budget levy and rate shall have been finally approved by
the department of local government finance. However, in all second
and third class school cities, no loans shall be borrowed under this
section in excess of the sum of twenty thousand dollars ($20,000)
until the letting of the loans shall have been advertised once each
week for two (2) successive weeks in two (2) newspapers of general
circulation published in the school city, and until sealed bids have
been submitted at a regular meeting of the school board of the school
city, pursuant to the notices, stipulating the rate of interest to be
charged by the bidder. School loans under this section shall be made
with the bidder submitting the lowest rate of interest and submitting
with the bid an affidavit showing that no collusion exists between
that bidder and any other bidder for the loan.
