Sec. 22. (a) To facilitate the carrying out of preliminary proceedings and provide money for the payment of expenses before the issuance of bonds under this chapter, the flood control board may, by resolution, authorize the making of loans in amounts approved by the circuit court. The loans shall be evidenced by callable warrants payable out of the proceeds of bonds, when available, and the warrants may bear interest at any rate. If the amount of warrants to be issued at any one (1) time exceeds five thousand dollars ($5,000), they shall be sold at public sale after notice given in accordance with IC 5-3-1. The warrants shall be sold to the bidder offering to purchase them at the lowest actual interest cost to the district, and shall be executed in the name of the district by the board’s president or vice president and by its executive secretary.

     (b) Any unit having territory included within the flood control district may advance money to the district. The advances must be authorized by the fiscal body of the unit. The advances may be made without appropriation, and warrants evidencing the advances shall be issued by the district, bearing the rate of interest provided for in the resolution or other action authorizing the advances.
