Any creating municipality or participating municipality under title 42, chapters 3-5 is hereby authorized pursuant to resolution adopted by the governing body of any such creating or participating municipality to guarantee or in any other manner to secure the payment of the airport authority or municipal airport under the loan agreement. Such guarantee shall include the pledge of unobligated state-shared taxes of the creating or participating municipality to the repayment of the loan agreement of the airport authority or municipal airport; provided, that at the time of approval of a loan agreement, the annual repayment schedule applicable to all approved loans to an airport authority or municipal airport so guaranteed by a creating or participating municipality to which unobligated state-shared taxes are pledged, when combined with annual repayment schedules applicable to approved loans to the creating or participating municipality under parts 4 and 5 of this chapter, title 68, chapter 221, parts 2 and 5, and title 68, chapter 211, part 4 [repealed] or other state loan programs, shall not exceed one hundred percent (100%) of the unobligated amount of annual state-shared taxes paid to the creating or participating municipality as shown by the latest completed audit for the state's fiscal year.
In the event the funds pledged by an airport authority or municipal airport shall be insufficient to meet the payments as established by the authority, any creating or participating municipality guaranteeing such loan agreement shall levy a tax on property sufficient to make such payments, which shall be in addition to all other taxes authorized or limited by law.
In the event any airport authority or municipal airport having entered into a loan agreement shall fail to remit funds in accordance with the annual repayment schedule established by the authority, the commissioner of finance and administration shall deliver by certified mail a written notice of such failure to the airport authority or municipal airport and to the creating or participating municipality guaranteeing such loan agreement, within five (5) days of such failure.
In the event the airport authority or municipal airport and the creating or participating municipality guaranteeing such loan agreement shall fail to remit the amount set forth in the notice within sixty (60) days of the receipt of the notice, the commissioner shall, without further authorization, withhold such sum or part of such sum from any state-shared taxes that are otherwise apportioned to such creating or participating municipality for the benefit of the authority issuing bonds or notes for the purposes referred to in this part. The creating or participating municipality shall not have any claim on state-shared taxes withheld as permitted under this part.
The county mayor, the county clerk, or the mayor and the city recorder for any creating or participating municipality, are authorized and directed upon adoption of such resolution to execute all documents necessary to guarantee or in any other manner to secure the payment of the airport authority or municipal airport under the loan agreement.
Prior to any meeting where such authorization will be considered by the governing body of a creating or participating municipality, a notice shall be published at least five (5) days in advance of such meeting in a newspaper of general circulation within the creating or participating municipality describing the matter to be considered and containing an estimate of the dollar amount of any contingent liability proposed to be undertaken by the creating or participating municipality.
The resolution of such creating or participating municipality authorized to be taken under this part may be adopted at the meeting of the governing body of such municipality at which such resolution is introduced and shall take effect immediately upon its adoption.
