Legislative finding and declaration.
A. The Legislature finds that current economic conditions, federal housing policies, and declining resources at the federal, state, and local level adversely affect the ability of moderate- and low-income persons to obtain safe, decent, and affordable housing. The Legislature also finds that the lack of affordable housing in rural communities of this state is an impediment to economic development and business expansion in these areas.
B. The Legislature declares that it is therefore in the public interest to provide for a continuously renewable resource known as a housing trust fund to assist moderate- and low-income citizens in meeting their basic housing needs, and that the needs of low-income citizens should be given priority.
