      indebtedness,  outstanding and unpaid, incurred to accomplish any of the
      purposes of  the  district,  may  be  dissolved  by  local  law  by  the
      legislative body upon its own motion or upon the written petition of (1)

      considering such recommendations.   In the  event  of  dissolution,  all
      assets of the district shall revert to the municipality.
