Whenever the board of county commissioners of any county in which there
is located in the county seat of said county an abandoned United States
post office building by resolution finds that said county is in need of
additional space for use as county offices and that said abandoned post
office building would provide the necessary additional space for county
offices, said board of county commissioners may purchase said abandoned

and the remodeling and equipping of said building shall not exceed the sum

the cost of use of any space in said building, the amount so received from
the federal government or any agency thereof shall be paid into the county
treasury and the county treasurer shall credit the same to the bond and
interest fund of said county and the same shall be applied to the payment
of the principal and interest upon the bonds issued hereunder.
