Whenever bonds have been duly issued the board of fire commissioners shall annually include in the budget of the fire district under the section for capital appropriations, the amount required to meet the interest payments and pay the bonds maturing in the ensuing year, together with interest thereon. The board of fire commissioners shall cause the principal and interest on said bonds to be paid as they become due.
If no funds are currently available to pay the maturing bonds or interest, the board of fire commissioners may borrow money and execute evidences of indebtedness for the purpose of making such payments in the same manner as in other cases of borrowing.
