It is hereby declared
(1) That there exist in the state insanitary or unsafe dwelling accommodations and that persons of low income are forced to reside in such insanitary or unsafe accommodations; that within the state there is a shortage of safe or sanitary dwelling accommodations available at rents which persons of low income can afford and that such persons are forced to occupy overcrowded and congested dwelling accommodations; that 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 state and impair economic values; that these conditions necessitate excessive and disproportionate expenditures of public funds for crime prevention and punishment, public health and safety, fire and accident protection, and other public services and facilities;
(2) That these areas in the state 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 that the construction of housing projects for persons of low income (as herein defined) would therefore not be competitive with private enterprise;
(3) That the clearance, replanning and reconstruction of the areas in which insanitary or unsafe housing conditions exist and the providing of safe and sanitary dwelling accommodations 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 of state concern;
(4) That it is in the public interest that work on projects for such purposes be commenced as soon as possible in order to relieve unemployment which now constitutes an emergency; and the necessity in the public interest for the provisions herein enacted, is hereby declared as a matter of legislative determination.

3. Any commissioner required by provisions of this section to be a tenant of the housing authority who ceases to be such shall thereby forfeit his office.

99.090. Rentals, how fixed. —
1. It is hereby declared to be the policy of this state that each housing authority shall manage and operate housing projects owned by it in an efficient manner so as to enable it to fix the rentals for its very low and low-income tenants at the lowest possible rates consistent with providing decent, safe and sanitary dwelling accommodations, and at rates not higher than rental guidelines established by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development for such persons. To this end an authority shall fix the rentals for dwellings in its projects at no higher rates than it shall find to be necessary in order:
(1) To pay, as the same become due, the principal and interest on the bonds of the authority;
(2) To meet the cost of, and to provide for, maintaining and operating its projects, including the cost of any insurance and any other administrative expenses of the authority; and
(3) To create (during not less than the six years immediately succeeding its issuance of any bonds) a reserve sufficient to meet the largest principal and interest payments which will be due on such bonds in any one year and to maintain such reserve.
2. The provisions of this section shall not apply to any moderate income tenants of the authority.
