(b) No revenue refunding bonds shall be issued under this part and part 1 of this chapter, unless the governing body of the local government shall make a finding, which finding shall be conclusive, that one (1) or more of the following purposes will be accomplished:

(1) Cost savings to the public;

(2) Removal or modification of one (1) or more restrictive covenants; or

(3) Payment or discharge of all or any part of an issue or series of outstanding obligations, including any interest thereon, in arrears or to become due and for the payment of which sufficient funds are not available.

(d) The resolution authorizing revenue refunding bonds may also provide for other bonds to be issued jointly with the revenue refunding bonds.
