The governing body of a local government operating a nursing home is authorized to issue health care revenue anticipation notes under this part and part 1 of this chapter for the purpose of providing funds to be transferred to the state pursuant to an approved intergovernmental transfer agreement between the state and the local government. The principal amount of the notes shall not exceed an amount as determined by the commissioner of finance and administration, as specified in the intergovernmental transfer agreement.
