With respect to any state project, the commissioner shall have the following duties and powers:

1.

To order such repairs of the buildings and structures constituting the project as may be necessary.

2.

To order the authority or the municipality if the project is undertaken or operated by the municipality, to do such acts as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of this chapter, or any rule or regulation adopted by the commissioner, or the terms of the contract for state aid, or to refrain from doing any act in violation of any of the foregoing.

3.

To enforce his orders by mandamus or injunction in a summary proceeding.

4.

To permit the consolidation of two or more approved state projects or the extension or amendment thereof or the consolidation of any approved state project with a proposed project. In any such case, the consolidated state project shall be treated as an original state project and an application shall be submitted as in the case of an original state project and the rents and costs of the consolidated project may be averaged. Consolidation hereunder may be permitted regardless of whether the state projects to be consolidated are contiguous or adjacent to each other. Such contracts as may have been made with regard to approved state projects may, upon consolidation of the projects, also be consolidated and contracts for consolidated state projects shall be subject to all the provisions of this chapter, governing original state projects.
