The governing body of any municipality may by ordinance provide and maintain a municipal radio broadcasting station to advertise its advantages, and in connection therewith, furnish musical, educational and miscellaneous programs, either by its own agency, or through remote controls installed within the municipality or elsewhere. It may contract for the purchase or lease of equipment necessary for the installation and operation of such station, and may make contracts and leases with any person or corporation for remote control service, royalty contracts with publishers and such other contracts as may be convenient for the most effectual operation of the broadcasting station.
Any municipality may sell its equipment and apply the proceeds to the purchase of new equipment, or exchange its equipment for other radio broadcasting equipment. The governing body may issue bonds to provide for the cost of such station, including all necessary equipment, machinery and the installation thereof, land and buildings to house the same and to provide funds for its maintenance and operation.
