SECTION 45-31-5
§ 45-31-5 Declaration as to methods to be
used in redevelopment.
It is further found and declared that in certain blighted and substandard
areas, or portions of these areas, the physical conditions of the area and the
area's relationship to the general plan for the community may be that the total
public acquisition, clearance, and disposition of the entire area or an
extensive portion of it may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of chapters
31 33 of this title; that other blighted and substandard areas, or
portions of them, may be susceptible to rehabilitation and improvement to
standard conditions, and the purposes of these chapters may be accomplished by
the coordinated application of regulatory controls, together with redevelopment
measures, short of total or extensive clearance of the entire area or portions
of it.
