Section 42-64.24-2 - Legislative findingsThe general assembly finds and declares:
(a) That due to global economic trends, businesses in Rhode Island have found it difficult to invest in development projects and other significant capital investments in and surrounding the I-195 land within the city of Providence. Investment in such projects would stimulate economic activity, facilitate the creation of new jobs for the citizens of the state and promote economic growth and development.(b) Through the establishment of the I-195 redevelopment project fund, Rhode Island can take steps to attract and grow new businesses and industries to and for the state; create good-paying jobs for its residents; assist with business and real estate development; and generate revenues for necessary state and local governmental services.R.I.
