Before carrying out a housing development project, a commission shall find that the project is necessary to alleviate a shortage of decent, safe, and sanitary housing for persons of low or moderate income and their families as such income is determined by the commission. No housing development project involving the use of the power of eminent domain may be carried out by a commission without the prior approval of the governing body of the municipality in which the project is located. A housing development project or any interest in the housing development project may be sold or leased to private developers before, during, or after the completion of construction of improvements on the project. The sale or lease shall be in accordance with the provisions of this chapter, except that any provisions requiring conformance to a redevelopment plan are not applicable. The sale or lease may be made for other than housing purposes if the commission finds that changed circumstances arising subsequent to the acquisition of the project make a sale or lease for housing purposes inappropriate. Nothing in this section limits the power of the commission to acquire or dispose of real property pursuant to this chapter, except that any exercise of the power of eminent domain may not be carried out by an authority without the prior approval of the governing body of the municipality in which the housing development project is located. The authority may transfer such real property in accordance with this chapter before, during, or after the completion of construction, rehabilitation, or improvements on the property.
