For the purpose of this Section, the following definitions shall apply unless the context clearly indicates or requires a different meaning.
BOSTON RESIDENT. Any individual who maintains a primary residence (i.e., normally eats, sleeps and maintains personal and household effects) in the city. This definition shall include those persons that are commonly known and/or Agency-verifiable as homeless and subsisting within the city.

It is the policy of the city to ensure that every program and/or initiative which targets or intends to target housing and was/is created, developed, implemented, administered, required, supervised, managed and/or guided by the city shall, to the greatest extent allowable under law, include a preference for Boston residents. Since this policy instills only a preference for Boston residents, it does not, and it is not the intention of this policy to, exclude non-residents of the city from such programs and/or initiatives. This policy shall be construed broadly to effect the intended purpose of installing the aforementioned preference.
