the amount necessary in each year to pay the principal of and interest on
project revenue bonds to be issued to finance the project;
(2)
the amount necessary to be paid each year into any reserve funds the
authority establishes in connection with the retirement of the proposed project revenue
bonds and the maintenance and repair of the project; and

properly insured.
B. The determinations required by Subsection A of this section shall be set forth in
the resolution under which the proposed project revenue bonds are to be issued; and
prior to the issuance of the bonds, the department shall lease or sell the project to a
lessee or purchaser pursuant to an agreement conditioned upon completion of the
project and providing for payment to the department and assigned to the authority or a

pay the principal of and interest on the bonds issued to finance the project;
(2)
build up and maintain any reserve established by the authority for the
bonds; and
(3)
pay the costs of maintaining the project in good repair and keeping it

insurance of the project.
