The financial agreement shall include, but not be limited to, those provisions set forth in sections 8, 9, 10 and 11 of P.L.1991, c.431 (C.40A:20-8 through 40A:20-11), and shall be subject to review and approval as required by section 8 of P.L.1991, c.431 (C.40A:20-8) prior to execution . The municipality which enters into the agreement shall retain all necessary authority and control for the redevelopment of the redevelopment area set forth in the plan, and the undertaking of a project by an urban renewal entity pursuant to that plan and P.L.1991, c.431 (C.40A:20-1 et seq.) shall be deemed a delegation of the powers of the municipality to undertake the project, which delegation shall be limited by the terms of the agreement and the provisions of P.L.1991, c.431 (C.40A:20-1 et seq.).
