59530. To aid in refunding the indebtedness of a district, entirely
or partly within a city or unincorporated county territory, any city

to aid in the refunding shall determine that the public interest,

59533. If the proceedings for which contributions are made are not
consummated, the legislative body may refund any contribution to the

expenses of any proceedings from any fund over which it has
jurisdiction and control and which is legally applicable to such
payment.
