Such fund shall be known as the Tax-Exempt Proceeds Fund. The Treasurer may enter into such contracts as may be necessary or useful to the organization, establishment, operation and administration of the Tax-Exempt Proceeds Fund under all applicable state and federal laws and may contract with any person to provide such services to the Tax-Exempt Proceeds Fund as, in the discretion of the Treasurer, are necessary for the proper operation and administration of said fund. The Treasurer shall publish a notice in a newspaper published and of general circulation in Hartford when the Tax-Exempt Proceeds Fund has been effectively established as a regulated investment company under all such state and federal laws and shall mail a copy of such notice to the chief executive officer of each town, city and borough in the state. All costs of operating the Tax-Exempt Proceeds Fund, including the cost of personnel and contractual services, shall be paid by the Treasurer from said fund. All costs related to the organization and establishment of the Tax-Exempt Proceeds Fund, to the extent not payable from income of said fund, may be paid from other moneys of the state to be made available for such purpose.
