The principal amount of the municipal securities issued in accordance with this section shall not exceed 50% of the total payments received in the last preceding fiscal year of the municipality, as certified by the department. The authorizing resolution shall provide that from the first receipts of the payments for that fiscal year in anticipation of which the municipality issued the municipal security, there shall be set aside in a special fund to be used for the payment of principal and interest on the municipal security a portion of each dollar that is not less than 125% of the percentage that the principal amount of the municipal security bears to the amount of payments remaining to be collected, until the amount set aside is sufficient for the payment of principal and interest on the municipal security. The amount set aside shall be used only for the payment of the principal and interest on the municipal security until the municipal security is paid as to both principal and interest.
