80.270 Public body may aid housing authority -- Declaration of policy. It is hereby declared that there exist in Kentucky unsafe and unsanitary housing
conditions and a shortage of safe and sanitary dwelling accommodations for persons of
low income; that these conditions necessitate excessive and disproportionate expenditures
of public funds for crime prevention and punishment, public health and safety, fire and
accident protection, and other public services and facilities; and that the public interest
requires the remedying of these conditions. It is further declared that the assistance
provided in KRS 80.280 to 80.300 for the remedying of such conditions constitutes a
public use and purpose and an essential governmental function for which public money
may be spent and other aid given; that it is a proper public purpose for any public body to
aid any housing authority located or operating within its boundaries or jurisdiction, as the
public body derives immediate benefits and advantages from such a housing authority or
developments; and that the provisions of KRS 80.280 to 80.300 are necessary in the
public interest. Effective: July 13, 1984
