Such forms may include a schedule of proposed costs to be met by the Facilities Development Corporation mortgage loan. The application must include a statement that the applicant and the Office of Mental Health intend that the State aid grant must be repaid when and if the applicant receives a Facilities Development Corporation mortgage loan pursuant to this Part; provided that such repayment shall be intended only for that portion of the State aid grant represented by underlying costs for which the Facilities Development Corporation mortgage loan is made.

The voluntary agency must demonstrate to the satisfaction of the commissioner that the corporation has obtained a certificate from the United States Internal Revenue Service that it is an exempt organization pursuant to section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and a statement of exemption from the New York State Department of Taxation and Finance.
(e) The property rights provisions of section 521.6 of this Title are incorporated into this section and shall govern the securing of Facilities Development Corporation mortgage loans.

(h) A voluntary agency must establish accounting and fiscal records in a manner approved by the commissioner to reflect the receipt and expenditure of Facilities Development Corporation mortgage loan funds. A voluntary agency whose application under this section has been accepted must maintain such records in such a manner, and must make fiscal reports to the commissioner in such a manner and at such intervals as he may require.
(i) The use of Facility Development Corporation mortgage loan funds for the financing or refinancing of any construction, reconstruction, design, acquisition, rehabilitation or improvement of a community facility must be approved by the Director of the Division of the Budget.

(1) the design construction, acquisition, reconstruction, rehabilitation or improvement of a facility;
