Sec. 9. (a) If the management of an urban mass transportation system in any municipality finds that public acquisition of the system is necessary to enable the system to render adequate service within the municipality, the management of the system may request the municipal legislative body to determine whether the public should acquire the system. The management may withdraw this request only if:
(1) at least six (6) months have passed since the date of the request; and
(2) the municipal legislative body did not adopt an ordinance to acquire the system within six (6) months from the date of the request.
(b) On receipt of the request, the municipal legislative body shall study whether it is in the public interest that the public acquire the system. The legislative body shall pay for these studies by an appropriation from the general fund of the municipality, which need not be restored to the general fund.
