Sec. 1.
The Commissioners of any park district located in whole or in part
in any city having a population of 500,000 or more are hereby authorized
and empowered to lease to a Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority, for
a term not exceeding 40 years, any parcel or parcels of land, not exceeding
25% of the total park area of the park district, to be maintained and
operated by the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition Authority for its lawful
corporate purposes, including the construction, operation and maintenance
of auditoriums or exposition buildings. The park district shall not thereby
divest itself of ownership of the land demised or of its power to regulate
the land. The Commissioners of the Chicago Park District shall not lease
any park property under the provisions of this Act except property located
in Burnham Park and shall not so lease more than 180 acres. The lease shall
set out the terms and conditions, consistent with the statutory powers and
duties of the lessor and lessee, upon which the land so demised
may be used by the Authority, and may provide for its renegotiation and
renewal for terms not to exceed 40 years. Neither the lease
nor any renewal thereof shall be finally terminated while there is
outstanding against the Authority any unfunded bonded debt.

Sec. 2.
Upon the final termination of the original lease or of any
renewal thereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 1 of this Act,
the Authority, at the election of the park district, shall cause to be
removed from the demised premises the improvements constructed or installed
thereon by it, and shall cause the demised premises to be returned, as
nearly as practicably possible, to their condition at the inception of the
original lease. If, at such time, the park district elects to preserve the
improvements, it is hereby authorized to maintain and operate the
improvements for the same purposes as the Metropolitan Pier and Exposition
Authority may be authorized to maintain and operate the improvements at
that time.
