The Area described in the Plan has been and is hereby found, determined and declared to be a blighted area as defined in the Law, and appropriate for an urban renewal project This is a legislative finding by the Board of Trustees based upon the Conditions Survey and other evidence presented to the Board of Trustees at a public hearing.

Section 7. The Plan meets the requirements of the Law and the principal public purpose for adoption of the Plan is to facilitate redevelopment of the Area in order to eliminate or prevent the spread of a physically blighted area as defined in the Law. Section 8. To the extent that any relocation of individuals and families will be required in connection with the Plan, a feasible method exists for the relocation of individuals and families in decent,safe,and sanitary dwelling accommodations within their means and without undue hardship to such individuals and families. Section 9. To the extent that any relocation of business concerns will be required in connection with the Plan,a feasible method exists for the relocation of such business concerns in the 2 Area or in other areas that are not generally less desirable with respect to public utilities andpublic and commercial facilities.

Section 11. Section 31-25-107(4)(d) of the Law does not apply because no more than 120 days have passed since the commencement of the only public hearing on the Plan. Section 12. Section 31-25-107(4)(e) of the Law does not apply because the Board of Trustees did not fail to previously approve the Plan. Section 13. The Plan conforms with the Firestone Master Plan 2008, which is the general plan for the development of the Town as a whole and additionally for the Area. Section 14. The Plan will afford maximum opportunity,consistent with the sound needs of the municipality as a whole, for the rehabilitation or redevelopment of the Area describedin the Plan by private enterprise. Section 15. To the extent that the Urban Renewal Area described in the Plan may constitute open land within the meaning of Section 31-25-107(5)of the Law,and to the extent such Section is otherwise applicable,it is found and determined that a shortage of housing of sound standards and design that is decent, safe, and sanitary exists in the Town; the need for housing accommodations has been or will be increased as a result of the clearance of substandard and dilapidated housing in the Town; the conditions of blight in the urban renewal area and the shortage of decent, safe, and sanitary housing cause or contribute to an increase in and spread of disease and crime and constitute a menace to the public health, safety,morals,or welfare; and,if necessary to carry out the Plan,the acquisition of the area for residential uses is an integral part of and essential to the program of the Town_ Section 16. To the extent that the Urban Renewal Area described in the Plan may constitute open land within the meaning of Section 31-25-107(6)of the Law,and to the extent such Section is otherwise applicable, it is found and determined that the nonresidential uses under the Plan are necessary and appropriate to facilitate the proper growth and development of the community in accordance with sound planning standards and local community objectives and,if necessary to carry out the Plan, the contemplated acquisition of the area may require the exercise of governmental action, as provided in the Law,because of being a blighted area.
