otherwise provided by the board in the resolution determining to
establish a bond reserve fund, any moneys deposited in such a fund
shall be used solely for the payment of the principal of and interest
on the bonds in the event that other available moneys of the
district are insufficient therefor. When all of the principal of and
interest on the bonds have been paid, the balance of the money
remaining in the bond reserve fund may be applied to any lawful
purpose of the district.
