Prior to the leasing, selling or other disposition of any project or projects, the governing body must determine and find the following:

A. the amount necessary in each year to pay the principal of and the interest on the bonds proposed to be issued to finance part or all of the cost of such project or projects; and

B. the amount necessary to be paid each year into any reserve fund which the governing body may deem it advisable to establish in connection with the retirement of the proposed bonds and maintenance of the project or projects; and in the case of an agreement of lease or sale unless the terms under which each such project is to be leased or sold provide that the lessee or the purchaser shall maintain the project or projects and carry all proper insurance with respect thereto, the estimated cost of maintaining the project or projects in good repair and keeping it or them properly insured. The determinations and findings of the governing body required to be made in the preceding sentence shall be made and set forth either in an ordinance or, if authorized by ordinance, in a resolution constituting part of the proceedings under which the proposed bonds are to be issued; and prior to the issuance of such bonds, the municipality shall lease or sell the project or projects to a lessee or purchaser under an agreement conditioned upon completion of the project or projects and providing for payment to the municipality of such rentals or payments, as upon the basis of such determinations and findings, will be sufficient:

(1) to pay the principal of and interest on the bonds issued to finance the project or projects;

(2) to build up and maintain any reserve deemed by the governing body to be advisable in connection therewith; and

(3) to pay the costs of maintaining the project or projects in good repair and keeping it or them properly insured, unless the agreement of lease or sale obligates the lessee or purchaser to pay for the maintenance and insurance of the project or projects.
