85-8-505. Refunding indebtedness of district. The court may, on the petition of the commissioners, authorize them to refund any lawful indebtedness of the district by:
(1) taking up and canceling all of its outstanding notes and bonds, as fast as they become due or before, if the holders thereof will surrender the same; and
(2) issuing in lieu thereof new notes or bonds of such district, payable in such longer time as the court shall deem proper, not to exceed in the aggregate the amount of all notes and bonds of the district then outstanding and the unpaid accrued interest thereon.
