Qualifications of a Tax-Exempt Municipal Lease...
A Municipal Lease or Lease Purchase is essentially an installment sales contract.  Properly structured with annual renewals a municipal lease constitutes a current expense of the municipality and does not create debt.  Because the interest is exempt from federal tax, a tax-exempt lease offers the municipality a significant cost savings when compared to conventional leasing.

Municipal leases (Lease Purchase) allow a municipality to obtain necessary capital equipment while spreading the cost over several fiscal or budget periods. Installment payments allow tax dollars to be stretched over the useful life of the piece of equipment and are treated as an operating expense, not a capital expense. Budgeting restrictions can be overcome. Monthly payments are easier to get approved versus lump-sum purchase price. States, counties, cities, public schools and 501(c)(3)’s are eligible.
