No findings of necessity need be made by the governing body of any political subdivision or of any department, agency or instrumentality of this state before exercising, or ordering the exercise of, any power granted hereunder. The preservation of exemptions from federal income tax or interest on bonds is found and determined to be of statewide interest, and this article applies to charter cities as well as all other political subdivisions.
