- When the board of trustees of any district deems it expedient to issue refunding bonds under the provisions of this part 6 and the net effective interest rate and the net interest cost of said issue of refunding bonds do not exceed the net effective interest rate and the net interest cost of the outstanding bonds to be refunded, such refunding bonds may be issued without the submission of the question of issuing the same at an election held in accordance with part 5 of this article. If two or more issues of outstanding bonds of a district are to be refunded by the issuance of a single issue of refunding bonds, as provided in section 23-71-602 (5), the net interest cost and net effective interest rate on the bonds to be refunded shall be computed as if all of said bonds had originally been combined as a single issue aggregating the total of the smaller issues, and the results of this computation shall be compared with the net interest cost and net effective interest rate on the whole of the single refunding issue for purposes of determining the necessity of submitting the question of issuing such refunding bonds at an election held in accordance with part 5 of this article.
- If any district proposes to issue refunding bonds, on which issue the net interest cost or net effective interest rate exceeds the net interest cost or net effective interest rate of the outstanding bonds to be refunded, the board of trustees shall submit the question of issuing such refunding bonds and the maximum net interest cost and maximum net effective interest rate at which such refunding bonds may be issued at the regular biennial election or at a special election called for that purpose. Any such election shall be called and held as nearly as may be in accordance with part 5 of this article for elections on the question of the issuance of other bonds of the issuing district.
