(2) any competitive bidding law or other restrictions imposed on the procedure for award of contracts for the construction and equipment of a project or the lease, sale, or disposition of property of an authority.
(c) If the prospective lessee requests in writing, an authority shall call for construction bids in the manner as determined by the authority with the approval of the lessee.
