Such indebtedness shall be authorized at a single time, and once authorized, the authority to incur thereafter a like indebtedness under this act shall be exhausted.

    That part of such cost as is to be financed under this act may be financed by the issuance of negotiable notes which shall be designated "Special Emergency Notes, issued pursuant to chapter 36 of the laws of 1958."   Any such  notes issued under this act shall not be included in calculating the debt limit  of the municipality.  Any such notes shall provide for repayment of the  principal amount thereof in not more than 4 installments, to be not more than 1  year apart, the first such installment to be due and payable not more than 15  months after the date of issue. Each installment of principal shall be in an  amount equal to 25% of the original principal sum, together with interest on  the unpaid balance, but the municipality may reserve the option to prepay any  part or all of a future installment.  The amount required to satisfy any  installment of principal and interest to fall due in any year shall be included  in the current municipal budget for such year, and shall be raised by taxation  in each such year.
