The State of California has a compelling interest in the development of facilities for community-based programs that assist persons with a developmental disability living in an institutional setting to transition to more independent living arrangements. In order to meet this significant community need, it is further the intent of the Legislature to encourage programs to seek funding for facility development from private sources and with the assistance provided pursuant to this chapter.

(m)of Section 129050, any loan made pursuant to this article for a nonprofit corporation or a political subdivision may be fully insured equal to the total cost of construction, improvement, and expansion, which may exceed the current value of the health facility, including improvements, when supported by other security for, or guaranty of, the debt.
