Sec. 5-10. Findings. The General Assembly determines and declares the  following:(1) that labor surplus areas currently exist in     southern Illinois;(2) that the economic burdens resulting from     involuntary unemployment fall, in part, upon the State in the form of increased need for public assistance and reduced tax revenues and, in the event that the unemployed worker and his or her family migrate elsewhere to find work, the burden may also fall upon the municipalities and other taxing districts within the areas of unemployment in the form of reduced tax revenues, thereby endangering their financial ability to support necessary governmental services for their remaining inhabitants;(3) that the State has a responsibility to help     create a favorable climate for new and improved job opportunities for its citizens by encouraging the development of commercial and service businesses and industrial and manufacturing plants within the southern region of Illinois;(4) that a lack of decent housing contributes to     urban blight, crime, anti-social behavior, disease, a higher need for public assistance, reduced tax revenues, and the migration of workers and their families away from areas which fail to offer adequate, decent, and affordable housing;(5) that decent, affordable housing is a necessary     ingredient of life affording each citizen basic human dignity, a sense of self-worth, confidence, and a firm foundation upon which to build a family and educate children;(6) that in order to foster civic and neighborhood     pride, citizens require access to educational institutions, recreation, parks and open spaces, entertainment, sports, a reliable transportation network, cultural facilities, and theaters; and(7) that the main purpose of this Act is to promote     industrial, commercial, residential, service, transportation, and recreational activities and facilities, thereby reducing the evils attendant upon unemployment and enhancing the public health, safety, morals, happiness, and general welfare of the State.

Sec. 5-45. Bonds and notes; exemption from taxation. The creation of the  Authority is in all respects for  the benefit of the people of Illinois and for the improvement of their health,  safety, welfare, comfort, and  security, and its purposes are public purposes. In consideration thereof, the  notes and bonds of the  Authority issued pursuant to this Act and the income from these notes and bonds  may be free from all  taxation by the State or its political subdivisions, exempt for estate,  transfer, and inheritance taxes. The  exemption from taxation provided by the preceding sentence shall apply to the  income on any notes or  bonds of the Authority only if the Authority in its sole judgment determines  that the exemption enhances  the marketability of the bonds or notes or reduces the interest rates that  would otherwise be borne by the  bonds or notes. For purposes of Section 250 of the Illinois Income Tax Act, the  exemption of the Authority  shall terminate after all of the bonds have been paid. The amount of such income that shall be added and  then subtracted on the Illinois income tax return of a taxpayer, subject to Section 203 of the Illinois Income  Tax Act, from federal adjusted gross income or federal taxable income in computing Illinois base income  shall be the interest net of any bond premium amortization.
