housing for persons and families of low and moderate income, as
defined by Section 50093. Such transfers may not be made at a cost
below the housing authority's acquisition cost but may be made at a
cost below market value if (1) not less than 30 percent of the
housing units to be developed will be enforceably restricted for
occupancy by persons and families of low and moderate income, with at
least 50 percent of the housing units restricted to persons and
families of low income, and (2) a transfer at below market value is
necessary to assure that the housing units restricted for occupancy
by persons and families of low or moderate income will be provided at
affordable housing cost, as defined by Section 50052.5.
(c) To private developers, generally, at market value for
development of housing.
(d) For any purpose, where the sale is at public auction to the
highest bidder.
The Department of Housing and Community Development shall adopt
regulations governing disposal of surplus real property of housing
authorities pursuant to subdivisions (b) and (c). The regulations
shall include requirements for providing public notice of a housing
authority's intent to dispose of real property in accordance with
this section and shall also specify other reasonable requirements to
implement the priorities established by this section.
The deed or other instrument of conveyance shall recite that the
authority has determined the property is not required for its
foreseeable needs and it is being disposed of pursuant to this
section and, if the property is disposed of pursuant to subdivision
(b) or (c), in accordance with regulations adopted by the Department
of Housing and Community Development. Such recital shall be
conclusive in favor of purchasers and encumbrancers for value.
Failure to comply with the provisions of this section shall not
invalidate any right, title or interest acquired by a purchaser or
encumbrancer for value.
