The lease shall contain such provisions with respect to the type, construction and operation of any such building or addition as the board may consider desirable, and the board may enter into agreements as to the use which will be made of any such building, addition or equipment, the operation, maintenance and supervision thereof, the imposition of fees and charges by the board for the use of the building or addition, and the collection and disposition to be made of the proceeds of such fees and charges. The board may agree to make such fees and charges adequate to provide a sum sufficient to pay the cost of the maintenance and operation thereof and the amortization of the cost of the building or any addition to existing buildings or equipment therefor, over a specified period of years, and when such cost shall have been paid any obligations issued by any entity to finance such cost shall have been fully paid as to principal and interest, the lease shall terminate and title to the building or any addition to existing buildings or equipment shall vest in the board.
