expenditures to the extent herein provided. Whenever any
urban renewal project, as defined, in the Federal Slum
Clearance and Urban Renewal Law, 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1450 et
seg., or in any Act of the General Assembly of Maryland
providing for urban renewal programs, requires or results in
the abandonment, relocation, realignment, raising, lowering,
rebuilding or removal of any water, sewer or storm drainage
facility of the commission, the urban renewal authority
shall pay to the commission the entire amount properly
attributable to the abandonment, relocation, realignment,
raising, lowering, rebuilding or removal, after deducting
therefrom any salvage value from the old facility. No urban
renewal authority shall authorize or permit any commission
structure to be removed, abandoned or damaged for or in
connection with an urban renewal project until the
commission has been paid or payment to the commission has
been assured to the commission's satisfaction, to the extent
above specified. Whenever any urban renewal project
requires the installation or construction of a new water,
sewer or storm drainage facility by the commission, the
commission may make the installation or perform the
construction so long as the costs thereof are to be repaid
it through existing provisions for special assessments,
including front foot benefit charges, or, if existing
provisions do not provide for the payment, then upon being
paid or having the payment assured by the urban renewal
authority, and for such purposes the commission is
authorized to enter into agreements with any urban renewal
authority providing for the payment to the commission over a
period of time, with the terms of the contract and rate of
interest to be determined by the commission. As used
herein, the term "urban renewal authority" shall mean the
state, county, municipality, commission, or district or
agency which is engaged in urban renewal activity.
