(2)(b) A new resolution described in Subsection (2)(a) shall in all respects be considered to be a resolution under Subsection 17C-5-103(1) adopted for the first time, except that any actions taken toward completing a development impediment study under the resolution that the new resolution replaces shall be considered to have been taken under the new resolution.

(3)(b)(ii) An agency shall conduct a supplemental development impediment study for the area proposed to be added to the community reinvestment project area if the agency proposes an amendment to a community reinvestment project area plan that:

(3)(b)(ii)(A) increases the community reinvestment project area's geographic boundary and the area proposed to be added was not included in the original development impediment study; and
(3)(b)(ii)(B) provides for the use of eminent domain within the area proposed to be added to the community reinvestment project area.
