Sec. 46. (a) A Barrett Law revolving improvement fund may be established under the municipal fiscal officer. This fund shall be initially funded by transferring to the fund from the surplus Barrett Law account any amount approved by the municipal legislative body. (b) If the legislative body decides that payment from the Barrett Law revolving improvement fund will increase the probability that competent contractors will bid on the project, the fiscal officer may pay all or part of the cost of the project from the Barrett Law revolving improvement fund to the contractor who is to do the work or has done the work. (c) The municipality shall levy a special assessment against property that benefits from the improvement project. The provisions of this chapter concerning special assessments to repay bonds also apply to special assessments for projects paid for from the Barrett Law revolving improvement fund. (d) When the cost of an improvement is paid from the Barrett Law revolving improvement fund, collections from the special assessment for the improvement shall be deposited in the surplus Barrett Law account. (e) If the municipal works board determines that to do so will facilitate the initiation, progress, or completion of a public improvement project, the works board may ask the municipal legislative body to do the following: (1) Approve the amount of money the works board will advance from the Barrett Law revolving improvement fund for the project. (2) Decide upon what terms the works board will make the advancement. (f) The municipal fiscal officer may invest the money in the Barrett Law revolving improvement fund in the same manner that money in the surplus Barrett Law account is invested.
