At any time when no bonds of an authority are outstanding, such authority may be dissolved upon the filing, with the judge of probate of the county in which is filed the certificate of incorporation, of an application for dissolution, which shall be subscribed by each director and sworn to by each director before an officer authorized to take acknowledgments to deeds. Upon the filing of such application for dissolution, the authority shall cease to exist. Said probate judge shall receive and record the application for dissolution in an appropriate book of record in his office. Upon dissolution, all rights, title and interests of the authority in property shall be vested in the authorizing subdivisions pursuant to the provisions of the certificate of incorporation, or, in the absence of such provisions, shall be vested in the authorizing subdivisions in the same proportion as their contributions to the authority over the life thereof.
