property to the owners of all outstanding assessment bonds, refunding assessment bonds,
interim warrants, or bond anticipation notes as payment in full for all delinquent assessments
with respect to the property only if:

and costs.

the money it receives from the sale into the guaranty fund, reserve fund, or other local entity
fund, as the case may be, to the extent of full reimbursement as required in this section.
