Sec. 22. (a) The city-county legislative body may, by ordinance, make temporary loans in anticipation of current revenues of the consolidated city that have been levied and are being collected for the fiscal year in which the loans are made. Loans under this subsection shall be made in the same manner as loans under section 21 of this chapter, except that:

(1) the ordinance authorizing the loans must appropriate and pledge to their payment a sufficient amount of the revenues in anticipation of which they are issued and out of which they are payable; and

(2) the loans must be evidenced by time warrants of the city in terms designating the nature of the consideration, the time and place payable, and the revenues in anticipation of which they are issued and out of which they are payable.

(b) The city-county legislative body may, by ordinance, make loans of money for not more than five (5) years and issue notes for the purpose of refunding those loans. The loans may be made only for the purpose of procuring money to be used in the exercise of the powers of the consolidated city, and the total amount of outstanding loans under this subsection may not exceed five percent (5%) of the consolidated city's total tax levy in the current year (excluding amounts levied to pay debt service and lease rentals). Loans under this subsection shall be made in the same manner as loans made under section 21 of this chapter, except that:

(1) the ordinance authorizing the loans must pledge to their payment a sufficient amount of tax revenues over the ensuing five (5) years to provide for refunding the loans; and

(2) the loans must be evidenced by notes of the consolidated city in terms designating the nature of the consideration, the time and place payable, and the revenues out of which they will be payable.

Notes issued under this subsection are not bonded indebtedness for purposes of IC 6-1.1-18.5.
