. (a) Notwithstanding Section 33440, an agency may, with the
consent of the legislative body, pay all or a part of the value of
the land for and the cost of the installation and construction of any
building, facility, structure, or other improvement that is publicly
owned and is located inside or contiguous to the project area, if
the legislative body determines all of the following:
(1) That the acquisition of land or the installation or construction of the buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned are of benefit to the project area by helping to eliminate blight within the project area or providing housing for low- or moderate-income persons.
(2) That no other reasonable means of financing the acquisition of the land or installation or construction of the buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned, are available to the community.
(3) That the payment of funds for the acquisition of land or the cost of buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned is consistent with the implementation plan adopted pursuant to Section 33490.
(b) (1) The determinations made by the agency and the local legislative body pursuant to subdivision (a) shall be final and conclusive.
(2) For redevelopment plans, and amendments to those plans that add territory to a project, adopted after October 1, 1976, acquisition of property and installation or construction of each facility shall be provided for in the redevelopment plan.
(3) A redevelopment agency shall not pay for the normal maintenance or operations of buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned. Normal maintenance or operations do not include the construction, expansion, addition to, or reconstruction of, buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned otherwise undertaken pursuant to this section.
(c) (1) When the value of the land or the cost of the installation and construction of the building, facility, structure, or other improvement that is publicly owned, or both, has been, or will be, paid or provided for initially by the community or other public corporation, the agency may enter into a contract with the community or other public corporation under which it agrees to reimburse the community or other public corporation for all or part of the value of the land or all or part of the cost of the building, facility, structure, or other improvement that is publicly owned, or both, by periodic payments over a period of years.
(2) The obligation of the agency under the contract shall constitute an indebtedness of the agency for the purpose of carrying out the redevelopment project for the project area, and the indebtedness may be made payable out of taxes levied in the project area and allocated to the agency under subdivision (b) of Section 33670 or out of any other available funds.
(d) In a case where the land has been or will be acquired by, or the cost of the installation and construction of the building, facility, structure, or other improvement that is publicly owned has been paid by, a parking authority, joint powers entity, or other public corporation to provide a building, facility, structure, or other improvement that has been or will be leased to the community, the contract may be made with, and the reimbursement may be made payable to, the community.
(e) (1) Notwithstanding any other authority granted in this section, an agency shall not pay for, either directly or indirectly, with tax increment funds the construction, including land acquisition, related site clearance, and design costs, or rehabilitation of a building that is, or that will be used as, a city hall or county administration building.
(2) This subdivision shall not preclude an agency from making payments to construct, rehabilitate, or replace a city hall if an agency does any of the following:

(B) Uses tax increment funds for the purpose of rehabilitating or replacing a city hall that was seriously damaged during an earthquake that was declared by the President of the United States to be a natural disaster.
(C) Uses the proceeds of bonds, notes, certificates of participation, or other indebtedness that was issued prior to January 1, 1994, for the purpose of constructing or rehabilitating a city hall, as evidenced by documents approved at the time of the issuance of the indebtedness.
(f) As used in this section, "contiguous" means that the parcel on which the building, facility, structure, or other improvement that is publicly owned is located shares a boundary with the project area or is separated from the project area only by a public street or highway, flood control channel, waterway, railroad right-of-way, or similar feature.
(g) Notwithstanding Section 33445.1, an agency may pay for all or part of the value of the land for and the cost of the installation and construction of any building, facility, structure, or other improvement that is publicly owned and is partially located in the project area, but extends beyond the project area's boundaries, if the legislative body makes the determinations required by subdivision (a).
(1) That the acquisition of land or the installation or construction of the buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned are of benefit to the project area by helping to eliminate blight within the project area or providing housing for low- or moderate-income persons.
