2019 Nevada Revised Statutes
Chapter 315 - Housing Authorities
NRS 315.560 - Federal aid.

1. In addition to the powers conferred upon an authority by other provisions of NRS 315.140 to 315.7813, inclusive, an authority may:

(a) Borrow money or accept contributions, grants or other financial assistance from the Federal Government for or in aid of any housing project within its area of operation.

(b) Take over or lease or manage any housing project or undertaking constructed or owned by the Federal Government, and to these ends, to comply with such conditions and enter into such mortgages, trust indentures, leases or agreements as may be necessary, convenient or desirable.

2. In any contract with the Federal Government for annual contributions to an authority, the authority may obligate itself (which obligation shall be specifically enforceable and shall not constitute a mortgage, notwithstanding any other laws) to convey to the Federal Government possession of or title to the project to which such contract relates, upon the occurrence of a substantial default (as defined in such contract) with respect to the covenants or conditions to which the authority is subject. Such contract may further provide that in case of such conveyance, the Federal Government may complete, operate, manage, lease, convey or otherwise deal with the project in accordance with the terms of such contract; provided, that the contract requires that, as soon as practicable after the Federal Government is satisfied that all defaults with respect to the project have been cured and that the project will thereafter be operated in accordance with the terms of the contract, the Federal Government shall reconvey to the authority the project as then constituted.

3. It is the purpose and intent of NRS 315.140 to 315.7813, inclusive, to authorize every authority to do any and all things necessary or desirable to secure the financial aid or cooperation of the Federal Government in the undertaking, construction, maintenance or operation of any housing project by such authority.
