The powers conferred by this Division are in addition and supplemental to, and the limitations imposed by this Division shall not affect, the powers conferred upon municipalities by any other law. This Division is not a limitation upon the powers of home rule units. Home mortgage loans may be acquired, purchased and financed, and bonds may be issued under this Division for such purposes, notwithstanding that any other law or power may provide for the acquisition, purchase and financing of like home mortgage loans, or the issuance of bonds for like purposes, and without regard to the requirements, restrictions, limitations or other provisions contained in any law, including any law relating to any requirement of competitive bidding or restriction imposed on the sale or disposition of property or award of contracts. Nothing in this Division shall be deemed or construed to prohibit the exercise of the powers conferred upon municipalities in connection with the financing of federally assisted housing for persons of low and moderate income.
