						<section><p>No <span class="dictionary">school board</span> shall borrow any money in any manner for any purpose without express authority of <span class="dictionary">law</span>. Any loan negotiated in violation of this section shall be void. Subject to the approval of the <span class="dictionary">governing body</span> or bodies appropriating funds to the <span class="dictionary">school board</span>, any <span class="dictionary">school board</span> is authorized to borrow money, when necessary, not to exceed in the aggregate one-half of the amount produced by the school <span class="dictionary">levy</span> for the school division for the year in which such money is so borrowed or one-half of the amount of the cash appropriation made to such <span class="dictionary">school board</span> for the preceding year or, in school divisions for which there is both a school <span class="dictionary">levy</span> and appropriation, one-half of the amount of each. Such loans shall be evidenced by notes or <span class="dictionary">bonds</span> negotiable or nonnegotiable, as the <span class="dictionary">school board</span> determines. In the case of temporary loans in anticipation of loans from the Literary Fund, such loans shall be repaid within two years of their dates. Other temporary loans shall be repaid within one year of their dates. However, loans made to purchase new school buses to replace obsolete or worn out equipment shall be repaid within not less than 10 years of their dates.</p></section></text><history>Code 1950, &#xA7; 22-120; 1980, c. 559; 1987, c. 251; 2006, c. 239.</history><metadata></metadata></law>
