(A) Purpose. Insanitary and unsafe inhabited dwelling accommodations exist in the City. There is a shortage of safe and sanitary dwelling accommodations in the City available to persons who lack the amount of income that is necessary to enable them, without financial assistance, to live in decent, safe and sanitary dwellings without over-crowding. Hence it is for the public interest that a Housing Commission is created. ('88 Code, Title I, Ch. 5, § 1.216)
(B) Commission continued. Pursuant to Public Act No. 18 of the Extra Session of 1933, as amended, the Housing Commission created in and for the City is hereby continued. ('88 Code, Title I, Ch. 5, § 1.217)
