NY Priv Hous Fin L § 1110 (2021)
2021 New York Laws PVH - Private Housing Finance Article 19 - Affordable Home Ownership Development Program 1110 - Statement of Legislative Findings and Purpose.

§ 1110. Statement of legislative findings and purpose. The legislature   hereby  finds  and  declares  that  home ownership by persons of low and   moderate income has long been, and still is, an essential element of the   state's social economy, resulting in the development, stabilization  and   preservation  of  neighborhoods and communities. The legislature further   finds that persons of low and  moderate  income  require  assistance  to   enable  them  to  supplement  their own resources and the ability of the   private sector to make the availability  of  private  home  ownership  a   reality. By providing home ownership assistance the state may narrow the   gap  between  the  resources of the individual and the high cost of home   ownership and by requiring leveraging  may  cause  investment  of  other   public  and private funds. The appeal of private home ownership has been   demonstrated to be a strong incentive to families  to  move  into  areas   which  otherwise  may  be in danger of becoming blighted through neglect   and the lack of investment. Pride in ownership will  halt  deterioration   and offer the prospect of turnaround. The legislature further finds that   adequate  private  resources  are  often  not  available to persons with   modest incomes to acquire, rehabilitate or  construct  their  homes  and   that  the  preservation of and development of existing private homes can   often prevent an area from becoming  a  slum  or  a  blighted  area.  In   addition,  stimulation  of  the level of activity in construction of new   affordable homes will provide needed jobs and stability for communities.   The legislature therefore finds that a program should be established  to   provide  monies to make the construction, rehabilitation and improvement   of homes for low and moderate income  persons  more  affordable.  It  is   intended that any monies provided to municipalities through this program   not  substitute for monies which such municipalities would have spent in   the absence of this program  and  that  such  monies  will  enable  such   municipalities  to  expand  their  commitment to increase the supply and   condition of low and moderate income owner occupied  housing  to  levels   greater than would have been possible without this program.

NY Priv Hous Fin L § 1120 (2021)
2021 New York Laws PVH - Private Housing Finance Article 20 - Manufactured Home Cooperative Fund Program 1120 - Statement of Legislative Intent.

§  1120. Statement of legislative intent. The legislature hereby finds   and declares that the shortage of decent affordable housing for  persons   of  low and moderate income remains significant and must be addressed in   new and innovative ways; that a particular housing  problem  exists  for   homeowners  residing  in  manufactured  home parks, wherein there is the   potential for serious dislocation of families and loss of equity through   the sale of manufactured  home  parks  to  interests  not  conducive  to   continuation  of  park  settings  for  these  manufactured  homes;  that   manufactured home  park  residents  frequently  lack  the  resources  to   purchase  new  homes or move existing homes; that an innovative and cost   effective solution to the problem of dislocation  of  manufactured  home   park  families  is  the  formation  of  park  cooperatives  in which the   manufactured home park is owned cooperatively by the  manufactured  home   owners  who  reside  therein;  that  a significant public purpose may be   served by assisting these homeowners in the  formation  of  manufactured   home  park  cooperatives,  such purpose being a reduction in the cost of   safe and sanitary housing for persons of low and moderate  income;  that   manufactured  home  park  cooperatives should be assisted through public   support for infrastructure improvements; that it is the  policy  of  the   state  to  create  such housing cooperative opportunities and to provide   for the aid, care, and support of the needy in a manner that  encourages   self-sufficiency and self-determination. The legislature therefore finds   that  a  program  should  be  established  to  provide  monies  for land   acquisition by manufactured home park cooperatives and for  improvements   to the infrastructures of such manufactured home parks.

NY Priv Hous Fin L § 1150 (2021)
2021 New York Laws PVH - Private Housing Finance Article 22 - Affordable Housing Development Loans 1150 - Statement of Legislative Findings and Purposes.

§  1150.  Statement of legislative findings and purposes. It is hereby   found and declared that there exists in the city of New York a seriously   inadequate  supply   of   safe,   sanitary   and   affordable   dwelling   accommodations for persons and families for whom the ordinary operations   of   private   enterprise   cannot   provide  such  accommodations.  The   legislature further finds and declares that the city of New York  should   be permitted to assist the private sector in the development of dwelling   accommodations  affordable  to  such  persons through establishment of a   program  to  provide  monies  to  make  the  construction  of   dwelling   accommodations more affordable. It is recognized that currently the city   of  New  York  assists  the  development  of such housing accommodations   through the provisions of articles fifteen and sixteen  of  the  general   municipal law which permit such assistance on city-owned sites which are   sold  to  private  developers  or  non-profit groups for construction of   housing.  It is intended that the city of New York also be authorized to   expend monies to assist housing  development  on  sites  which  are  not   city-owned.  Accordingly, the legislature enacts this article to provide   such authorization  and  to  encourage  the  development  of  additional   affordable dwelling accommodations.
