When a public body having outstanding indebtedness has been divided and parts thereof included within two (2) or more other public bodies, by any lawful means, the refunding of the securities requires affirmative action by a majority of the members of the governing bodies of each of the public bodies within which any part of the area of the public body which is being lawfully taxed to pay the outstanding indebtedness is then included except as hereinafter provided.
