(a-1) Notwithstanding any other law, this section does not apply to property sold to an eligible adjacent property owner under Section 379C.0106 .
(b) Except as provided by Subsection (b-1), the land bank must sell a property to a qualified participating developer within the four-year period following the date of acquisition for the purpose of construction of affordable housing for sale or rent to low income households.
(b-1) Before the completion of the four-year period described by Subsection (b), the land bank may, subject to Section 379C.0106 :
(1) transfer property that the land bank determines is not appropriate for residential development to the taxing units described by Subsection (b); or
(2) sell property described by Subdivision (1) to a political subdivision or a nonprofit organization.
(b-2) If after four years a qualified participating developer has not purchased the property, the property shall be transferred from the land bank to the taxing units who were parties to the judgment for disposition as otherwise allowed under the law.
(c) Unless the municipality increases the amount in its plan, the number of properties acquired by a qualified participating developer under this section on which development has not been completed may not at any given time exceed three times the annual average residential production completed by the qualified participating developer during the preceding two-year period as determined by the municipality.
(d) The deed conveying a property sold by the land bank must include a right of reverter so that if the qualified participating developer does not apply for a construction permit and close on any construction financing within the three-year period following the date of the conveyance of the property from the land bank to the qualified participating developer, the property will revert to the land bank for subsequent resale in accordance with this chapter or conveyance to the taxing units who were parties to the judgment for disposition as otherwise allowed under the law.
