The borrowing and bond issuance must be approved by a special election, with residents and property owners voting. The bonds can be sold publicly or privately, and the Town Council sets the terms. The bonds do not count towards existing debt limits or require additional approval. The Town's credit is pledged for the bonds' payment.
