In any municipality or county for which a Land Clearance Commission has been established, and for which no Housing Authority has been established, the Land Clearance Commission, if a recipient of state grants under this Act, may, subject to the approval of the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, exercise the powers vested in Housing Authorities under the provisions of this Act and the "Housing Authorities Act," approved March 19, 1934, as amended, and apply state grant funds allocated under this Act to any such purpose. For the purpose of any project so undertaken, the Land Clearance Commission shall be subject to all laws and regulations applicable to Housing Authorities. In respect to pending, uncompleted or existing projects undertaken as a Housing Authority, the Land Clearance Commission, subject to the approval of the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, may either complete or continue such project, or transfer full and complete power thereover to the Housing Authority.
