(a) A municipality may authorize and approve the issuance of local capital improvement grant anticipation notes. Proceeds from the issuance and sale of such grant anticipation notes shall be used to temporarily finance an eligible local capital improvement project approved by the Secretary of the Office of Policy and Management pursuant to subsection (f) of section 7-536. Such grant anticipation notes may be issued and sold to any lender on such terms and in such manner as shall be determined by a municipality. Such grant anticipation notes may be renewed from time to time by the issuance of other notes, provided the final maturity of such notes shall not exceed six months from the date of completion of an eligible local capital improvement project. Such notes and renewals shall not be subject to the requirements and limitations set forth in sections 7-378 and 7-378a. The provisions of section 7-374 shall apply to such notes and any renewals thereof. The officer or agency authorized by law or by vote of the municipality to issue such grant anticipation notes shall, within any limitation imposed by such law or vote, determine the date, maturity, interest rate, form, manner of sale and other details of such notes. Such notes may bear interest or be sold at a discount and the interest or discount on such notes, including renewals thereof. The expense of preparing, issuing and marketing such notes may not be included as a part of the cost of an eligible local capital improvement project.
(b) Local capital improvement grant anticipation notes shall be general obligations of the issuing municipality and each such obligation shall recite that the full faith and credit of the issuing municipality are pledged for the payment of the principal thereof and interest thereon.
