The finance board may determine that such notes may mature in the manner provided in paragraph j of section 29.00, or, if the fiscal procedures applicable to such municipality will enable the necessary budgetary appropriations for debt service to be made and such appropriations to become available, that such notes shall mature in two equal annual installments in two different fiscal years, but the final maturity of such notes shall not extend beyond the close of the second fiscal year immediately succeeding the year of their issue. 4.

The provisions of subdivision four of paragraph c of section 40.00 and of any other section of this chapter and the provisions of any general, special or local law which would restrict, limit or prohibit the renewal of budget notes as provided in this paragraph (except those enacted to conform with the state constitution), are, to the extent that this section is utilized by a municipality, suspended and made ineffective insofar as necessary to effectuate the objects and purposes of this section. d.
