All money held in any reserve fund, except as provided in this section or section 8, shall be used solely for the payment of the principal of the obligations for which the fund was established, the payment of interest on the obligations for which the fund was established, or the payment of any redemption premium required to be paid when the obligations are redeemed before maturity.

Except as provided in section 8, any income or interest earned by, or increment to, the reserve fund due to the investment or reinvestment of the reserve fund may only be withdrawn and used for any purposes for which obligations may be issued and to pay interest and to pay at maturity, purchase, or call for redemption obligations of the building authority for which the fund was established, as the building authority determines in the resolution authorizing the obligations.
