Sec. 2342. Disposal of property


(a) Property under lease or license agreement

    The Commission shall offer for disposal all real property (including 
such improvements thereon and such fixtures, equipment, and other 
personal property incident thereto as it may deem appropriate) within 
the community which is presently under lease or license agreement with 
the Commission or its community management contractor for residential, 
commercial or industrial, agricultural, church or other nonprofit use, 
or which, in the opinion of the Commission, is appropriate for such use, 
other than--
        (1) structures which in the opinion of the Commission should be 
    removed from the community because of their unsatisfactory type of 
    construction, condition, or location; or
        (2) property which in the opinion of the Commission should be 
    transferred pursuant to subchapters VI or VII of this chapter; or
        (3) property which in the opinion of the Commission should be 
    retained by the Commission for its own use.

(b) Discretionary disposal of other real property

    The Commission may, but shall not be required to, dispose of any 
other real property at the community, whether within or outside of that 
community.

(c) Terms and conditions; impairment of rights

    Such property shall be disposed of on such terms and conditions, 
consistent with this subchapter, as the Commission shall prescribe in 
the national interest, and without regard to any preferences or 
priorities whatever except those provided for pursuant to this chapter. 
Transfers by the Commission of such property shall not impair rights 
under existing leases and covenants, including any purchase rights 
therein conferred.
