7offered within the District, or for carrying out of any aspect
8of the Commission's purposes under Section 10, subject to the
9restrictions on the use of the real property as the Commission
10determines will carry out the purpose of this Act. To ensure

12subsection is used in accordance with this Act, the Commission
13shall inquire into and satisfy itself concerning the financial
14ability of the purchaser, conveyee, or lessee to complete the
15project for which the real property is sold, conveyed, or
16leased in accordance with a written plan to be submitted by the

19use the land for the purposes designated in the presented
20plan, (ii) to commence and complete the construction of the
21buildings or other structures to be included in the project
22within the periods of time that the Commission determines, and

2period of at least one year, title to the property reverts to
3the Commission. All sales, conveyances, and leases made by the
4Commission to any person for use by residents or any other
5person shall be on the condition that if the resident or other
6person violates any of the restrictions as to the use of the
7property as the Commission has determined will carry out the
8purposes of this Act, then title to the property reverts to the
9Commission. If, however, the Commission finds that financing
10necessary for the acquisition or lease of any real estate or
11for the construction of any building or improvement to be used
12for purposes prescribed in this Act cannot be obtained if
13title to the land, building, or improvement is subject to such
14a reverter provision, the finding shall be made by the
15Commission after a public hearing is held. Upon the finding
16being made, the Commission may cause the real property to be
17conveyed free of a reverter provision if at least 7
18commissioners vote in favor of the sale, conveyance, or lease
19without the reverter provision. The Commission may also
20include, in the sales agreement, conveyance, lease agreement,
21or other documentation, provisions for notice of the
22violations or default and how to cure violations or default
23for the benefit of any lender or mortgagee as the Commission
24may determine is appropriate.

26resolves that a parcel of real estate conveyed or leased by it,

2estate, is not being used for the purposes prescribed in this
3Act or has been unused for a period of at least one year, the
4Commission may file a lawsuit in the Cook County Circuit Court
5to enforce the terms of the sale, conveyance, or lease. If a
6reverter of title to any property is ordered by the court under
7the terms of this Act, the interest of the Commission shall be
8subject to any then existing, valid mortgage or trust deed in
9the nature of a mortgage, but if the title is acquired through
10foreclosure of that mortgage or trust deed or by deed in lieu
11of foreclosure of that mortgage or trust deed, then the title
12to the property shall not revert, but shall be subject to the
13restrictions as to use, but not any penalty for nonuse,
14contained in this Act with respect to any mortgagee in
15possession or its successor or assigns.
16    (b) If, at a regularly scheduled meeting, the Commission
17resolves that a parcel of real estate that is owned by the
18Commission is no longer needed for District purposes, the
19Commission may authorize the sale or public auction of the
20parcel. The resolution shall direct the sale to be conducted
