33750. The Legislature finds and declares that it is necessary and essential that redevelopment agencies be authorized to make long-term, low-interest loans through qualified mortgage lenders to finance residential construction in order to encourage investment and upgrade redevelopment project areas and increase the supply of housing. Unless redevelopment agencies intervene to generate mortgage funds and to provide some form of assistance to finance residential construction, many redevelopment areas will stagnate and deteriorate because owners and investors are not able to obtain loans from private sources.
The Legislature further finds and declares that financing of rehabilitation, as provided in this chapter, serves an essential public purpose for the economic renewal of our cities.
