Notwithstanding any other provision of law, as part of an agreement that provides for the development, rehabilitation, or improvement of buildings, structures, or facilities within the project area, the redevelopment agency may use any available funds, including moneys received pursuant to Section 33670, to provide credit enhancements, including, but not limited to, the ability to buy down interest rates, that are necessary for the project. Prior to entering into an agreement for a development that would be assisted pursuant to this section, the agency shall find, after a public hearing, that the assistance is necessary for the economic feasibility of the development and that the assistance cannot be obtained on economically feasible terms in the private sector.
