Sec. 11. (a) The legislative body of a municipality may study whether it is in the public interest that a system be established and maintained under this chapter by the municipality. The legislative body shall pay for these studies by an appropriation from the general fund of the municipality, which need not be restored to the general fund.
(b) If the legislative body finds as a result of its studies that the establishment and maintenance of a system would fulfill any one (1) or more of the conditions listed in section 5(a)(2) of this chapter, it may adopt an ordinance specifying the conditions that are fulfilled. The legislative body may then:
(1) enter into a contract to make grants-in-aid to a system that will serve the municipality, under section 6 of this chapter;
(2) enter into a contract to purchase buses and real property for lease to a system that will serve the municipality, under section 7 or 8 of this chapter; or
