The district may borrow money for the purpose of defraying general administrative and preliminary expenses of the district, lawfully incurred, prior to the time moneys to be raised by the first tax levy for the district or other revenues are available, a sum which shall not exceed five cents ($0.05) on each one hundred dollars ($100) of assessed valuation of taxable property in the district at the time the moneys are borrowed, and to evidence such borrowing by notes bearing interest at a rate not to exceed 7 percent per annum. The notes shall be payable from the first tax levy made by the district, and the tax levy shall contain a sum sufficient to provide for the payment of the notes and the interest thereon. The form of the notes, their issuance and sale, will be governed by the applicable provisions referred to in Sections 102504 and 102505. 102581. At any time prior to the first receipt by the district of revenues from taxation or other sources, any city or county may lend any available money to the district for the purposes of organization and operation. Such expenditures shall constitute a proper expenditure of city and county funds. 102582. The district may borrow money in accordance with the provisions of Article 7 (commencing with Section 53820), or of Article 7.6 (commencing with Section 53850) of Chapter 4, Part 1, Division 2, Title 5 of the Government Code. 102583.

Such notes may be paid from any moneys of the district available therefor and not otherwise pledged. If not previously otherwise paid, the notes shall be paid from the proceeds of the next sale of the bonds of the district in anticipation of which they were isued and if not so paid, taxes may be levied for their payment in the same manner as taxes are levied for the payment of general obligation bonds pursuant to Section 102336 until such bonds are issued. Such notes shall not be issued in any amount in excess of the aggregate amount of bonds which the district has been authorized to issue, less the amount of any bonds of such authorized issue previously sold, and also less the amount of other bond anticipation notes therefor issued and then outstanding. The notes shall be issued and sold in the same manner as the bonds. Such notes and the resolution or resolutions authorizing the same may contain any provisions, conditions, or limitations which a resolution of the district authorizing the issuance of bonds may contain.
