The  authority  shall carry out its purposes and   responsibilities and utilize  the  facilities  through  agreements  with   state  and  local  agencies  which  have  jurisdiction  over the various   olympic facilities in the olympic region.  It is further declared to  be   desirable  that  the  authority  develop, construct, operate, manage and   maintain facilities,  or  participate  therein,  for  the  training  and   housing of amateur athletes in connection with the United States olympic   committee's  training  center  program  and  the  authority's conduct of   national and international sports events. It is  further  declared  that   the  authority shall be created as a public benefit corporation and that   the corporate programs and powers conferred under  this  title  and  the   expenditures  of  public  moneys  pursuant thereto are in furtherance of   serving a valid public interest and public purpose.
