In such cases leases shall be used only when other possibilities have been eliminated as not feasible, in the opinion of the commissioner.

(2) Whenever a bid is made to the commissioner for any purpose regarding the use of land or whenever any person proposes to sell or lease land to the state, the bidder or such person shall be the owner of the land, or the commissioner shall have the option to void any contract subsequently made with said bidder or third person.

(3) In all dealings with the commissioner the owner of record or beneficial owner shall be disclosed to the commissioner and the bid shall be revealed to the owner of record or beneficial owner or the commissioner shall have the option to void any contract subsequently made concerning any such dealing.

(4) After the authorization of a project under the provisions of section 4b-23 , the Auditors of Public Accounts and the auditors or accountants of the Commissioner of Administrative Services shall have the right to audit the books of any contractor employed by the commissioner pursuant to such authorization, or of any party negotiating with the Commissioner of Administrative Services for the acquisition of land by lease or otherwise; provided any such audit shall be limited to the project authorized by the Commissioner of Administrative Services and the Properties Review Board, and provided further that in the case of a party negotiating with the Commissioner of Administrative Services, such audit may also be conducted after the negotiations have ended, if a contract is consummated with the commissioner.
