Section 1200. Statement of legislative findings and purpose  


Latest version.
  • The legislature
      hereby  finds and declares that there exists in New York state a serious
      need for  financial  and  technical  resources  to  assist  renters  and
      property  owners  to make dwelling units accessible for low and moderate
      income persons with disabilities. Providing assistance with the cost  of
      adapting  homes will enable many New Yorkers with disabilities to safely
      and comfortably continue to, or return  to,  live  in  their  residences
      instead of residing in an institutional setting.
