A contract, lease or extension for a longer period shall be valid without such approval if it provides for the right of acquisition by the City at the end of such period of the real or personal property leased or contracted for. This section shall not apply to airports or to any franchise granted pursuant to the provisions of this Charter or to any contract for the furnishing, or acquisition of the products, commodity or services of any public utility.
