After the execution of such contract, it shall be necessary for the municipality to appropriate for such debt in any year, only sufficient money for each instalment. Said contract may provide that the amount of such instalment may, when due according to the terms of the contract, be applied by any such person or corporation to the payment of taxes due the municipality by or on the property of such person or corporation, in lieu of payment by the municipality of such instalment.
