In the proceedings for the merger of a redevelopment project, pursuant to this article, the legislative body may provide for the extension of any termination date in the redevelopment plan for any particular project area to such date as will enable a refunding to be accomplished by the issuance of bonds for the merged project area which will extend debt service for the purpose of attempting to prevent default. The termination date may also be extended for the purpose of financing projects under Section 33334.2 or 33471.5 or for any other purposes permitted by law.
