If the proper authority of the state, or a municipal or other subdivision thereof,
applying for a grant of lands under section 12:3-33 of this title, shall be unable or unwilling to pay the price fixed by the board for
such lands, the board may grant to such authority a revocable lease of or permit to
use the lands for a public park, place, street or highway or dock purpose for a nominal
consideration until such time as the board shall decide to make a grant in fee of
the lands to such proper authority, or to other grantees, for such consideration as

may have been constructed upon the lands which were the subject of the revocable lease
