(b) If the governing body of the city shall make a legislative finding of fact, as
recited in the body of the ordinance authorizing issuance of the bonds, that the <br>governmental project is of such nature as to provide increased revenues to the <br>city by reason of increased employment and resulting increased receipts from <br>occupational license fees or occupational license taxes, then the city may <br>pledge and covenant that it will cause to be deposited in said separate and <br>special fund the receipts which may be definitely identified as accruing from <br>such occupational license fees or taxes by reason of employment in or directly <br>related to the governmental project, less a proportionate part of the costs of <br>collecting such fees or taxes.

as to any city-owned utility system the rate or schedule of rates prevailing at the <br>time revenue bonds are issued will not be reduced so long as any of the bonds <br>remain outstanding and unpaid, and (iii) in the case of a pledge of revenues of a <br>city-owned utility system or combination of utility systems, that the city will not sell <br>or otherwise dispose thereof without making provision for payment of the revenue <br>bonds from the proceeds of such sale or other disposition, due regard being given to <br>the priority of any previously issued bonds which are payable from such revenues; <br>but a city may not additionally pledge that it will raise or adjust the rate or rates of <br>any utility system, or of any combination of utility systems, or of any occupational <br>license fee or occupational license tax solely for the purpose of assuring revenues <br>from such sources adequate to provide for payment of revenue bonds issued under <br>KRS 82.140 to 82.165.
