Sec. 1. Every county, park district, sanitary district, or other municipal corporation, holding in its treasury funds which are set aside for use for particular purposes, including any funds that are disbursed to a county or municipality as their share of the taxes collected under the "Motor Fuel Tax Law", but which are not immediately necessary for those purposes, by ordinance, may use those funds, or any of them, in the purchase of tax anticipation warrants issued by the county, park district, sanitary district, or other municipal corporation possessing the funds against taxes levied by that county, park district, sanitary district, or other municipal corporation. These warrants shall bear interest not to exceed four percent annually. All interest upon these warrants, and all money paid in redemption of these warrants, or received from the resale thereof, shall at once be credited to and placed in the particular fund used to purchase the specified warrants. Likewise, every county, park district, sanitary district, or other municipal corporation, by resolution or ordinance may use the money in the specified funds in the purchase of municipal bonds issued by the county, park district, sanitary district, or other municipal corporation, possessing the funds and representing an obligation and pledging the credit of that county, park district, sanitary district, or other municipal corporation, or bonds and other interest bearing obligations of the United States, of the State of Illinois, or of any other state or of any political subdivision or agency of the State of Illinois or of any other state, whether the interest earned thereon is taxable or tax-exempt under federal law, including savings accounts and savings certificates of deposit of any State or National Bank if such accounts and certificates are fully insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, withdrawable capital accounts or deposits of State or federal chartered savings and loan associations which are fully insured by the Federal Savings and Loan Insurance Corporation, or treasury notes and other securities issued by agencies of the United States. All interest upon these bonds or obligations and all money paid in redemption of these bonds or obligations or realized from the sale thereof, if afterwards sold, shall at once be credited to and placed in the particular fund used to purchase the specified bonds or obligations.
No bank or savings and loan association shall receive public funds as permitted by this Section, unless it has complied with the requirements established pursuant to Section 6 of "An Act relating to certain investments of public funds by public agencies", approved July 23, 1943, as now or hereafter amended.
This amendatory Act of 1975 is not a limit on any home rule unit.

Sec. 2. If at any time it is deemed expedient to convert into money any tax anticipation warrants theretofore issued and purchased with public funds pursuant to the provisions of Section 1 of this Act, before receipt of the taxes in anticipation of which the warrants were issued, the governing body of the county, park district, sanitary district, or other municipal corporation, by ordinance or resolution, may authorize a resale of such warrants and adjust the interest rate thereon or may authorize the issuance and sale of a like principal amount of any warrants for the same purpose and in anticipation of the same taxes as the original warrants were issued. These new warrants may have any date subsequent to the date of the original tax anticipation warrants. The new tax anticipation warrants shall be of the denomination and shall bear interest at the rate, not to exceed the statutory rate, that is authorized by the ordinance or resolution specified in this section.
Simultaneously with the delivery of these new tax anticipation warrants a like principal amount of the original warrants that were issued against the same tax that is anticipated by the new warrants shall be paid and cancelled. The proceeds of the sale of these new tax anticipation warrants shall be used first to restore to the fund or 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.
When tax anticipation warrants are reissued they shall bear the index numerical designation of the original warrants and shall be subnumbered consecutively in the order of reissuance, and shall be paid in the direct order of reissuance, beginning with the earliest subnumber.
In determining the priority of payment of more than one series of tax anticipation warrants against the collection of the same tax the various series shall be treated as having been issued on the date of the original issue of each series of warrants. The series prior in point of time as thus determined shall be paid first.
This Act shall not apply to cities, villages, and incorporated towns.
