Code of Alabama - Title 16: Education - Section 16-17-19 - Dissolution of authority and vesting of title to its properties

Section 16-17-19 - Dissolution of authority and vesting of title to its properties.

At any time when the authority does not have any bonds outstanding and when there shall be no obligations assumed by the authority that are then outstanding, the board may adopt a resolution, which shall be duly entered upon its minutes, declaring that the authority shall be dissolved. Upon the filing for record of a certified copy of said resolution in the office of the judge of probate of the county in which the authority's original certificate of incorporation was filed, the authority shall thereupon stand dissolved, and in the event it owned any property at the time of its dissolution, the title to all its property shall thereupon vest in the determining municipality. In the event the authority shall at any time have outstanding bonds issued hereunder payable out of the revenues from various ancillary improvements, then, as and when the principal of and the interest on all bonds payable, in whole or in part, from the revenues derived from any particular ancillary improvements shall have been paid in full, title to the ancillary improvements with respect to which the bonds so paid in full have been paid shall thereupon vest in the determining municipality or in an educational institution as the board of directors may direct by resolution, but such vesting of title shall not affect the title of the authority to any other ancillary improvements the revenues from which are pledged for the payment of any other bonds then outstanding. The formation of one or more authorities under the provisions of this chapter shall not prevent the subsequent formation hereunder of other authorities with respect to the same determining municipality.
