However, no portion of the revenues which are restricted in use by law may be appropriated for the redemption of warrants issued against a utility or other special purpose fund of a self-supporting nature. In addition, all or any portion of the city’s or town’s outstanding registered warrants may be funded into bonds in any manner authorized by law.
