  99.936.  Disposal of real property. — Real property which is acquired by a municipality or authority in a development project area may be disposed of as follows:

  (1)  Within a development project area, the authority may sell, lease, exchange, or otherwise transfer real property, including land, improvements, and fixtures, or any interest therein, to any developer selected for a development project, or any portion thereof, in accordance with the development plan, subject to such covenants, conditions, and restrictions as may be deemed to be in the public interest or to carry out the purposes of sections 99.915 to 99.980.  Such real property shall be sold, leased, or transferred at its fair market value for uses in accordance with the development plan; provided that such fair market value may be less than the cost of such property to the municipality or authority.  In determining the fair market value of real property for uses in accordance with a development plan, the municipality or authority shall take into account and give consideration to the uses and purposes required by the development plan; the restrictions upon, and the covenants, conditions, and obligations assumed by the developer of such property; the objectives of the development plan; and such other matters as the municipality or authority shall specify as being appropriate.  In fixing rental and sale prices, a municipality or authority shall give consideration to appraisals of the property for such uses made by experts employed by the municipality or authority;

  (2)  The municipality or authority shall, by public notice published in a newspaper having a general circulation in a development area, prior to selecting one or more developers for any development project, or any portion thereof, invite proposals from, and make available all pertinent information to, private developers or any persons interested in undertaking the development of such development project, or any portion thereof.  Such notice shall be published at least once each week during the two weeks preceding the selection of a developer, shall identify the area of the development project or development projects, or any portion thereof, for which one or more developers are to be selected, and shall state that such further information as it is available may be obtained at the office of the municipality or authority.  The municipality or authority shall consider all proposals and the financial and legal ability of the prospective developers to carry out their proposals.  The municipality or authority may negotiate and enter into one or more contracts with any developer selected for the development of any such area for the development of such area by such developer in accordance with a development plan or for the sale or lease of any real property to any such developer in any such area for the purpose of developing such property in accordance with the development plan.  The municipality or authority may enter into any such contract as it deems to be in the public interest and in furtherance of the purposes of sections 99.915 to 99.980; provided that the municipality or authority has, not less than ten days prior thereto, notified the governing body in writing of its intention to enter into such contract.  Thereafter, the municipality or authority may execute such contract in accordance with the provisions of subdivision (1) of this section and deliver deeds, leases, and other instruments and take all steps necessary to effectuate such contract.  In its discretion, the municipality or authority may, in accordance with the provisions of this subdivision, dispose of any real property in an area selected for a development project, or any portion thereof, to private developers for development under such reasonable competitive bidding procedures as it shall prescribe, subject to the provisions of subdivision (1) of this section;

  (3)  In carrying out a development project, the authority may:

  (a)  Convey to the municipality such real property as, in accordance with the development plan, is to be dedicated as public right-of-way for streets, sidewalks, alleys, or other public ways, this power being additional to and not limiting any and all other powers of conveyance of property to municipalities expressed, generally or otherwise, in sections 99.915 to 99.980;

  (b)  Grant servitudes, easements, and rights-of-way for public utilities, sewers, streets, and other similar facilities, in accordance with the development plan; and

  (c)  Convey to the municipality or other appropriate public body such real property as, in accordance with the development plan, is to be used for parks, schools, public buildings, facilities, or other public purposes;

  (4)  The municipality or authority may operate and maintain real property in the development area pending the disposition or development of the property in accordance with a development plan, without regard to the provisions of subdivisions (1) and (2) of this section, for such uses and purposes as may be deemed desirable even though not in conformity with the development plan.
