§ 34-26.

Resale of tax anticipation warrants-Sale of new warrants. If it is deemed necessary or expedient to convert into money any tax anticipation warrants issued and purchased by public funds pursuant to Section 34-25 before the receipt of taxes in anticipation of which the warrants were issued, the board by resolution adopted by a vote of a majority of its entire membership may authorize a resale of such warrants and adjust the interest rate thereon, or as permitted by statute may authorize the issuance and sale of a like principal amount of new warrants for the same purpose and in anticipation of the same taxes as the original warrants were issued and bearing any date subsequent to the date of the original tax anticipation warrants, the new tax anticipation warrants to be of the denomination and bear such interest not to exceed the statutory rate, all as may be authorized by such resolution. Upon the delivery of the new tax anticipation warrants, a like principal amount of such original warrants that were issued against the same tax that is anticipated by the new warrants shall be paid and cancelled and the proceeds of the sale of the new tax anticipation warrants shall be used first to restore to the funds so invested in the original tax anticipation warrants money equivalent to the par value and accrued interest of the original tax anticipation warrants and the balance, if any, shall revert to the fund for the creation of which the tax so anticipated was levied. Warrants so resold or reissued shall have the same incidence of priority with respect to payment and shall be paid in the same manner as other warrants issued in anticipation of the same tax and sold in the first instance to any purchaser other than the issuing board of education.
