Section 2-6-71 Declaration of purpose and legislative findings. The Legislature has found and
determined and does hereby declare that in certain areas of this state, there are inadequate

Section 16-60-82 Legislative findings of fact and declaration of intent. The Legislature hereby
makes the following findings of fact and declares its intent to be as follows: The number
of students enrolled in trade schools and colleges supported wholly or in part by the state
has increased greatly during recent years. Further increases in enrollment are anticipated
because of the increased rate of births, the increased need for skilled workers and other
factors. In order to meet these needs and to provide residents of this state with the opportunity
to receive adequate instruction in the arts and sciences and in useful skills and trades,
it is imperative that junior colleges and additional trade schools be constructed, equipped
and operated. The tax revenues and other funds currently available for trade schools and junior
colleges are not sufficient to permit immediate outlays of the large amounts of capital necessary
for such construction and equipment and at the same time to permit...

Section 24-1A-1 Legislative findings and declaration of purpose of chapter. (a) It is hereby
found and declared that from time to time there has existed and at the present time there
exists an inadequate supply of funds at interest rates sufficiently low to enable the financing
of safe and sanitary multi-family dwelling units for citizens of this state and single family
dwelling units for citizens of this state with low and moderate income; that the inability
to finance such single and multi-family dwelling units results in an inability of builders
to construct such housing causing unemployment or underemployment in the housing construction
and related businesses and causes a lack of safe and sanitary housing to be available to the
citizens of this state; that such unemployment or underemployment in the housing construction
and related businesses and an inadequate supply of safe and sanitary housing wastes human
resources, increases the public assistance burden of the state, impairs...
