(a)Any governing body that has established a reinvestment housing incentive district as provided in this act may purchase or otherwise acquire real property; however, the property may not be acquired through the exercise of the power of eminent domain. Relocation assistance payments shall be provided by the city or county in accordance with the provisions of K.S.A. 12-1777 , and amendments thereto, to any tenants required to be relocated as a result of the acquisition of such property for any project in the district.

(b)Any property acquired by a city or county under this act may be sold or leased to any developer, in accordance with the reinvestment housing incentive plan and under such conditions as shall have been agreed to prior to the adoption of the plan. The city or county and the developer may agree to any additional terms and conditions, but if the developer requests to be released from any obligations agreed to and embodied in the plan, such release shall constitute a substantial change and subject to the requirements provided in K.S.A. 12-5246 (b), and amendments thereto.
