  • After title to the real property required for the project, and to the additional lands, shall have vested in the county, the additional lands may be either held and used by the county or sold or leased, or the county may apply such real property to a county use other than that for which it was acquired. The County Board may provide that such additional lands shall be sold or leased subject to such restrictions, covenants or conditions as to location of buildings with reference to the real property acquired for the project, or the height of buildings or structures, or the character of construction and architecture thereof, or such other covenants, conditions or restrictions as it may deem proper. Such additional lands may be sold or leased subject to such restrictions, covenants and conditions, if any, as the County Board may have prescribed, which shall be set forth in the instrument of conveyance or lease. Upon any such sale the County Board may authorize the taking, in the name of the county, of a purchase money bond and mortgage or bonds and mortgages as a part of the consideration therefor, in an amount or amounts not to exceed sixty percentum of the sale price, and upon such terms and conditions as may be authorized and fixed by act of the County Board, and in enforcing the lien of any such mortgage the county shall have and be entitled to all the same rights and remedies as an individual or private corporation under the provisions of the Real Property Law and the Civil Practice Act and rules of civil practice of the State of New York.
