Declaration of state policy: Adequate supply of decent, safe and sanitary attainable housing necessary to accomplish purposes of Community Redevelopment Law

It is further found and declared that: 1. The provision of housing is a fundamental purpose of the Community Redevelopment Law and that a generally inadequate supply of decent, safe and sanitary attainable housing threatens the accomplishment of the primary purposes of the Community Redevelopment Law, including, without limitation, creating new employment opportunities, attracting new private investments of money in the area and creating physical, economic, social and environmental conditions to remove and prevent the recurrence of blight. 2. The provision and improvement of attainable housing which is inside or outside the boundaries of the redevelopment area can be of direct benefit to the redevelopment area in assisting the accomplishment of project objectives whether or not the redevelopment plan provides for attainable housing within the project area. 3. The provision of attainable housing by redevelopment agencies and the use of taxes allocated to the agency pursuant thereto is of statewide benefit and assistance to all local governmental agencies in the areas where attainable housing is provided.
