 (A) An authority created pursuant to this chapter may dissolve the authority by a two-thirds vote of the entire number of authorized members if no property remains for redevelopment or if the authority decides to transfer the remaining redevelopment properties to another public body or successor entity created by statute.  (B) Final dissolution may occur only upon sale of all properties to the private sector or conveyance to another public entity described in subsection (A) with the lawful power to receive real and personal property held by the authority and the satisfaction of all outstanding obligations of the authority or their lawful assumption by another public entity described in subsection (A).  (C) Upon a determination to dissolve, the authority may dispose of any tangible or intangible property remaining after transfer of any remaining redevelopment properties as provided by law or in the following manner:  (1) tangible personal property and cash or similar instruments held by the authority must be distributed to the local governmental entities which nominated members to the authority; and  (2) disbursement of assets must be based on the cash value of all assets and must be distributed in reimbursement to local government entities which have contributed cash funds or capital assets in proportion to the dollar value of contributions made by the government entities that have not been otherwise recovered by the contributing governmental entity through direct revenues.  (D) The authority must keep annual and permanent records of cash contributions and the value of in-kind donations of the governmental entities, and the records must be used to determine the distribution of assets of the authority based on the net present value of the contributions at the time it is dissolved.  (E) If tax increment finance obligations have been issued previously by a municipality upon request of an authority, the authority's tax increment finance district continues in existence upon dissolution of the authority pursuant to this section until the adoption by the municipality of the ordinance required by Section 31-12-270(C) finally dissolving the tax allocation fund and terminating the designation of the redevelopment project area for all tax increment finance obligations that may be issued by the municipality during the period for issuance described in Section 31-12-210(F). That period for issuance of obligations is not affected by the dissolution of the authority and, until the adoption of the ordinance required by Section 31-12-270(C), the municipality shall hold and exercise all powers with regard to adoption, amendment, implementation, and administration of redevelopment plans and the tax increment finance district, and issuance, amendment, implementation, and administration of tax increment finance obligations that might have been held and exercised by the dissolved authority.
