(a) Adoption of a resolution by a majority of the members elected to and serving on the legislative body of the political subdivision requesting release from membership.
(b) Acceptance of the request by a majority vote of the members, other than the members representing the political subdivision requesting release, serving on the board of the authority. Notwithstanding any other provision of this act, this condition does not apply to a political subdivision seeking release from membership in an authority, if the political subdivision adopts the resolution described in subdivision (a) before the expiration of the thirtieth day after the effective date of this section.
(c) Payment or the provision for payment of all obligations of the political subdivision to the authority or its creditors is made.
(2) Any tax authorized to be levied by the authority within the boundaries of the political subdivision to be released shall continue to be levied for the period of time originally authorized. In addition, a political subdivision which has been released from an authority shall continue to receive public transportation services from the authority until the political subdivision is no longer required to pay a tax levied by the authority during the time the political subdivision was a member of the authority.
(3) Release of a political subdivision from an authority shall be evidenced by an amendment to the articles of incorporation executed by the recording officer of the authority and filed and published in the same manner as the original articles of incorporation.
