2021 Colorado Code|Title 7 - Corporations and Associations|Article 49 - Older Housing|§ 7-49-101. Legislative Declaration

  The general assembly hereby finds and declares that:   There exists in both the urban and rural areas of the state a substantial quantity of older houses which, while still structurally sound and safe, are in danger of deteriorating due to the lack of available private investment capital which would help ensure their purchase or rehabilitation;    The purchase, repair, and restoration of such houses by interested persons will tend to stabilize the physical and social environment of the area in which such houses are located, preserve the economic base of the community of which they are a part, and help prevent the spread of blighted houses;    A need exists for assistance to individuals and families in securing financing to purchase or rehabilitate such housing; that such purpose can best be met by coordination and cooperation among private lenders and insurers with state and local governments; that such assistance can be provided by stimulating the flow of private investment capital into the financing of such houses by providing a program of mortgage lending and insurance specifically designed to provide loans or insurance to individuals or families who would otherwise qualify for mortgage loans in areas of newer housing; and that local governments can further stimulate the upgrading of endangered older houses by minimizing the problems associated with over-restrictive and narrowly-defined and administered building codes and inspection procedures.       It is further declared that a general law cannot be made applicable to the corporation authorized by this article because of the atypical and special nature of the corporation's powers, duties, privileges, rights, and liabilities.
