A. At any time after approval of an economic development plan, the governing body of the local government or the governing body of each local government in a regional government may enact an ordinance terminating the economic development plan and dissolving or terminating any or all public support for economic development projects. An ordinance repealing an economic development plan shall not be effective unless the ordinance provides for satisfying existing contracts and the rights of the parties arising from those contracts.
B. Any unexpended and unencumbered balances remaining in any project fund or account upon repeal of a plan and termination of public support for or dissolution of a project may be transferred to the general fund of the local government holding the fund or account. In the case of funds or accounts of a regional government, the unexpended and unencumbered balances shall be divided among the local governments as provided in the joint powers agreement.
