2. Any municipal corporation is authorized to establish an industrial fund in an amount determined by the Minister of Municipal Affairs with the assent of the Minister of Industry, Commerce and Tourism, provided that the municipal by-law ordering the establishment of such fund receives all the approvals required for loan by-laws by the law governing the municipality.

R. S. 1964, c. 175, s. 2; 1979, c. 77, s. 27.

3. After the by-law ordering the establishment of the industrial fund has been approved, the municipal council, by by-law requiring no other approval than those of the Minister of Industry, Commerce and Tourism, the Minister of Municipal Affairs and the Commission municipale du Québec, may effect one or more loans the total on which shall not exceed the amount of the industrial fund, to acquire by agreement or expropriation lands for industrial purposes.

5. The municipal corporation, on such conditions as it may determine, may sell or lease for industrial purposes an immoveable owned by it provided that the cash selling price is not less than the cost of such immoveable, that the price of sale with a term is sufficient to cover the purchase price and interest and that the rent is sufficient to cover all the annual expenses respecting such immoveable for amortization and interest on the purchase price, insurance, maintenance and municipal and school taxes.

The municipal corporation may also sell for cash for commercial purposes, at a price not less than the cost, any land acquired under the provisions of section 3.
