(a) Notwithstanding Section 33440, an agency may, with the consent of the legislative body, pay all or a part of the value of the land for and the cost of the installation and construction of any building, facility, structure, or other improvement that is publicly owned and is located outside and not contiguous to the project area, but is located within the community, if the legislative body finds, based on substantial evidence in the record, all of the following:

1. (1) The acquisition of the land or the installation or construction of the buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned are of primary benefit to the project area.
2. (2) The acquisition of the land or the installation or construction of the buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned benefits the project area by helping to eliminate blight within the project area, or will directly assist in the provision of housing for low- or moderate-income persons.

3. (3) No other reasonable means of financing the acquisition of the land or the installation or construction of the buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned, are available to the community, including, but not limited to, general obligation bonds, revenue bonds, special assessment bonds, or bonds issued pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (Chapter 2.5 (commencing with Section 53311) of Part 1 of Division 2 of Title 5 of the Government Code). In determining whether other means of financing are feasible, the legislative body may take into account any relevant factors, including, but not limited to:

   1. (A) Legal factors, such as the eligibility of the improvements for funding under the governing statutes.
   2. (B) Economic factors, such as prevailing interest rates and market conditions.
   3. (C) Political factors, such as the priority of commitments of other public funding sources, the ability or willingness of property owners or taxpayers to bear the cost of any special assessments, taxes, or other charges, and the likelihood of obtaining voter approval, if required.
4. (4) The payment of funds for the acquisition of land or the cost of buildings, facilities, structures, or other improvements that are publicly owned is consistent with the implementation plan adopted pursuant to Section 33490.
5. (5) The acquisition of land and the installation of each building, facility, structure, or improvement that is publicly owned is provided for in the redevelopment plan.
