There is hereby authorized to be incorporated under the Iowa      business corporation Act, chapter 490, development corporations which      meet and comply with the requirements of this chapter.  Such      corporations shall be subject to and have the powers and privileges      conferred by the provisions of this chapter and those provisions of      the Iowa business corporation Act, chapter 490, which are not      inconsistent with and to the extent not restricted or limited by the      provisions of this chapter.  No corporation shall be deemed      incorporated pursuant to and under the provisions of this chapter      unless the same is approved by the department and unless its articles      of incorporation provide that it is incorporated pursuant to this      chapter.  To assure a broad base from which development corporations      may obtain loans from members, the department at its discretion may      limit the number of development corporations organized and existing      pursuant to this chapter to one or more such corporations.
