Section 11-96A-1 Legislative declarations. It is hereby declared that a lack of sanitary, safe,
and affordable dwelling accommodations for persons of moderate and low income and shelters,
halfway houses and emergency housing for persons who would otherwise be homeless exists in

sanitary housing for the low and moderate income citizens and shelter for homeless persons,
to alleviate such conditions and to encourage economic development, to increase employment
in housing construction and related businesses and to create and...
