In addition to the powers conferred by law upon any housing authority, any such authority in any contract with the state for financial assistance with regard to any housing project may obligate itself, which obligations shall be specifically enforceable and shall not constitute a mortgage, notwithstanding any other laws to convey to the state such housing project upon the occurrence of a substantial default with respect to the covenants or conditions to which such authority is subject. Such contract may further provide that, in case of such conveyance, the Commissioner of Housing may complete, operate, manage, lease, convey or otherwise deal with the housing project in accordance with the terms of such contract, provided the contract shall require that, as soon as practicable after the commissioner is satisfied that all defaults by reason of which the commissioner acquired the housing project have been cured and that the housing project will thereafter be operated in accordance with law and the terms of the contract, the commissioner shall reconvey to such authority the housing project if then owned by the state and as then constituted.
