A. A local school board may issue refunding bonds for the purpose of refunding, for not less than the principal amount thereof, bonds issued pursuant to the provisions of the School Revenue Bond Act or any act repealed thereby, or for the purpose of providing additional funds for any income project for which bonds have been authorized by a local school board, or for both purposes.
B. Except as otherwise provided in the School Revenue Bond Act, refunding bonds shall conform to the provisions of the School Revenue Bond Act which provide for the issuance of other revenue bonds by a local school board.
C. A refunding bond issued by a local school board may have the same security or source of payment as was pledged for the payment of the bond being refunded but no source of payment shall be pledged which is not authorized by the School Revenue Bond Act.
D. A refunding bond may be delivered in exchange for a bond authorized to be refunded, sold at a public or private sale for not less than the par value of the bond or sold in part and exchanged in part. If the refunding bond is sold, the proceeds shall be immediately applied to the retirement of the bond to be refunded, or the proceeds or the obligations in which the proceeds are permitted by law to be invested shall be placed in trust to be held and applied to payment of the bond to be refunded.
