The cost of a redevelopment project, including administrative expense of the commission allocable to the project and debt charges, shall be known as the public redevelopment cost. The proceeds from the operation, sale, or lease of property in a redevelopment area shall be known as the capital proceeds. It shall be incumbent upon any commission, before engaging in any redevelopment project, to ascertain that federal or state public body grants or other financial assistance shall be sufficient when added to the capital proceeds, to at least equal the public redevelopment cost, provided, however, that the estimated revenues of prospective operations, leases, and sales may be capitalized and a bonded indebtedness assumed thereon, the proceeds of which may be entered into the computation in lieu of actual operation, sale or lease of the property.
