Section 220. Provisions of lease  


Latest version.
  • If real property of a city be leased to a
      redevelopment corporation:
        1. The lease may provide that all improvements shall be  the  property
      of the lessor;
        2.  The lessor may grant to the redevelopment corporation the right to
      mortgage the fee of such property  and  thus  enable  the  redevelopment
      corporation to give as security for its notes or bonds a first lien upon
      the land and improvements;
        3.  The  execution  of  a  lease  shall not impose upon the lessor any
      liability or obligation  in  connection  with  or  arising  out  of  the
      financing,  construction,  management  or  operation  of  a  development
      involving the land so leased. The lessor shall not,  by  executing  such
      lease,  incur  any  obligation  or liability with respect to such leased
      premises other than may devolve upon the lessor with respect to premises
      not owned by it. The  lessor,  by  consenting  to  the  execution  by  a
      redevelopment  corporation of a mortgage upon the leased land, shall not
      thereby assume, and such consent shall not be construed as imposing upon
      the lessor, any liability upon the note or bond secured by the mortgage;
        4. The lease may reserve such easements or other rights in  connection
      with  the  real property as may be deemed necessary or desirable for the
      future planning and development of the city and the extension of  public
      facilities  therein (including the construction of subways and conduits,
      the widening and change of grade of streets); and it  may  contain  such
      other   provisions  for  the  protection  of  the  parties  as  are  not
      inconsistent with the provisions of this article.
