When a municipality has sufficient funds but cannot call the bond before the maturity, it can buy Treasuries, place them in an escrow account, and use the interest proceeds to pay the muni interest. Such process makes the pre-res almost as safe as US Treasuries, but tax-free. At the maturity of the munis a municipality will sell Treasuries and buy back the muni bonds with the proceeds.
