If the authority determines, after making an advance hereunder, that it will not make a mortgage loan or insure a mortgage for the proposed housing under the provisions of this chapter, the advance may, at the discretion of the authority, be treated as a grant to the extent that the advance cannot be repaid from the assets of the recipient corporation or municipal developer, including the project;
