1  Section 35. Disposition of Property.
2  (a) The Commission may sell, convey, or lease, all at fair
3  market value, any title or interest in real property owned by
4  it to any person or persons to be used, subject to the
5  restrictions of this Act, for the purposes stated in this Act,
6  for the purpose of serving persons using the facilities
7  offered within the District, or for carrying out of any aspect
8  of the Commission's purposes under Section 10, subject to the
9  restrictions on the use of the real property as the Commission
10  determines will carry out the purpose of this Act. To ensure
11  that real property sold, conveyed, or leased under this
12  subsection is used in accordance with this Act, the Commission
13  shall inquire into and satisfy itself concerning the financial
14  ability of the purchaser, conveyee, or lessee to complete the
15  project for which the real property is sold, conveyed, or
16  leased in accordance with a written plan to be submitted by the
17  purchaser, conveyee, or lessee to the Commission. Under the
18  plan, the purchaser, conveyee, or lessee shall promise (i) to
19  use the land for the purposes designated in the presented
20  plan, (ii) to commence and complete the construction of the
21  buildings or other structures to be included in the project
22  within the periods of time that the Commission determines, and
23  (iii) to comply with any other conditions that the Commission
24  determines are necessary to carry out the project.
25  All sales, conveyances, and leases authorized in this
26  subsection shall be made on the condition that, if used other

1  than for the purposes prescribed in this Act, or unused for a
2  period of at least one year, title to the property reverts to
3  the Commission. All sales, conveyances, and leases made by the
4  Commission to any person for use by residents or any other
5  person shall be on the condition that if the resident or other
6  person violates any of the restrictions as to the use of the
7  property as the Commission has determined will carry out the
8  purposes of this Act, then title to the property reverts to the
9  Commission. If, however, the Commission finds that financing
10  necessary for the acquisition or lease of any real estate or
11  for the construction of any building or improvement to be used
12  for purposes prescribed in this Act cannot be obtained if
13  title to the land, building, or improvement is subject to such
14  a reverter provision, the finding shall be made by the
15  Commission after a public hearing is held. Upon the finding
16  being made, the Commission may cause the real property to be
