A. Any revenue bonds issued pursuant to the Economic Advancement District Act and at any time outstanding may at any time be refunded by a district by the issuance of refunding bonds, in the amount as the board of trustees may determine, to refund the principal of the revenue bonds, all unpaid accrued and unaccrued interest on the revenue bonds to their normal maturity date or to selected prior redemption dates, any redemption premiums, any commission and all estimated costs incidental to their issuance and to such refunding as may be determined by the board of trustees. The principal amount of the refunding bonds may be equal to, less than or greater than the principal amount of the bonds to be so refunded. Refunding may be effected whether the bonds to be refunded shall have then matured or shall thereafter mature, either by sale of the refunding bonds and the application of the proceeds thereof for the payment of the bonds to be refunded thereby or by exchange of the refunding bonds for the bonds to be refunded thereby; provided, that the holders of any bonds so to be refunded shall not be compelled without their consent to surrender their bonds for payment or exchange prior to the date on which they are by terms subject to redemption. Any refunding bonds issued pursuant to this section shall be payable solely from the revenues out of which the bonds to be refunded may be payable or solely from those amounts derived from an escrow as provided in this section, including amounts derived from the investment of refunding bond proceeds and other legally available amounts or from any combination of the foregoing sources, and shall be secured in accordance with the provisions of the Economic Advancement District Act. B. Proceeds of refunding bonds shall either be applied immediately to the retirement of the revenue bonds being refunded or be placed in escrow in a commercial bank or trust company which possesses and is exercising trust powers. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in any other statute, the escrowed proceeds may be invested in short-term securities, long-term securities or both.
