To order such repairs of the\nbuildings and structures constituting the project as may be necessary.\n 2. To order the authority or the municipality if the project is\nundertaken or operated by the municipality, to do such acts as may be\nnecessary to comply with the provisions of this chapter, or any rule or\nregulation adopted by the commissioner, or the terms of the contract for\nstate aid, or to refrain from doing any act in violation of any of the\nforegoing.\n 3. To enforce his orders by mandamus or injunction in a summary\nproceeding.\n 4. To permit the consolidation of two or more approved state projects\nor the extension or amendment thereof or the consolidation of any\napproved state project with a proposed project. In any such case, the\nconsolidated state project shall be treated as an original state project\nand an application shall be submitted as in the case of an original\nstate project and the rents and costs of the consolidated project may be\naveraged. Consolidation hereunder may be permitted regardless of whether\nthe state projects to be consolidated are contiguous or adjacent to each\nother.
