(2) The amount of the deficiency is clearly established.

(3) The liability of the municipality for the deficiency is established. However, this subdivision does not require the liability of the municipality to be established by a judgment against the municipality.

     (b) Refunding bonds issued under this section shall be issued in the manner prescribed by IC 5-1-9. The proceeds of the bonds may be used only to discharge the liability of the municipality for the deficiency.
