The city does hereby designate the real property described in § 11 of the Neighborhood Revitalization Plan as the neighborhood revitalization area, and finds that the following conditions exist within such described area:
(a) A predominance of buildings which, by reason of dilapidation or obsolescence, are detrimental to the public’s health, safety and welfare;
(b) A substantial number of deteriorating structures which impair the sound growth of the city, retards the provision of housing and constitutes an economic liability; and
(c) A predominance of buildings which, by reason of age, history or architecture are significant and should be restored to productive use and that the rehabilitation, conservation and redevelopment of such area is necessary to protect the public’s health, safety and welfare.
