Notwithstanding the omission of such covenants in the ordinance authorizing the bonds, or the limitation of the same to payment of a deficiency at the maturity of the last outstanding bond, the governing body may levy such tax upon the occurrence of any deficiency and may also levy such tax in anticipation of any deficiency for the purpose of paying the next maturing principal and interest. Taxes levied pursuant hereto shall not exceed by more than five percent the deficiency or estimated deficiency for which they are levied, but shall not be subject to any other tax levy limitation provided by law. Levies in excess of the limitations herein shall be invalid only as to such excess.
