[Ord. #489]
There exists in the Borough unsanitary or unsafe dwelling accommodations,
and persons of low income are forced to reside in such unsanitary
or unsafe accommodations. In the Borough there is a shortage of safe
or sanitary dwelling accommodations available at rents which persons
of low income can afford, and such persons are forced to occupy overcrowded
and congested dwelling accommodations. The aforesaid conditions cause
an increase in and spread of disease and crime and constitute a menace
to the health, safety, morals and welfare of the residents of the
Borough and impair economic values; and those conditions necessitate
excessive and disproportionate expenditures of public funds from crime
prevention and punishment, public health and safety, fire and accident
protection and other public services and facilities. These areas in
the Borough cannot be cleared, nor can the shortage of safe and sanitary
dwellings for persons of low income be relieved through the operation
of private enterprise, and therefore the construction of housing projects
for persons of low income (as defined in the Local Housing Authorities
Law) would not be competitive with private enterprise. The clearance,
replanning and reconstruction of the areas in which unsanitary and
unsafe housing conditions exist and the providing of safe and sanitary
dwelling accommodations by any public body for persons of low income
are public uses and purposes for which public money may be spent and
private property acquired and are governmental functions. It is in
the public interest that work on projects for such purposes be commenced
as soon as possible.
[Ord. #489, § 1]
Pursuant to the provisions of the "Local Housing Authorities
Law" N.J.S.A. 55:14A, et seq., as amended, a body corporate and politic

is hereby created and established.
[Ord. #489, § 2]
