§ 1763. Public financial assistance; rental target housing and child care facilities
Every state agency or instrumentality that makes a commitment to provide public financial assistance for the purchase or rehabilitation of rental target housing or child care facilities shall give priority to projects in which the property is lead free, or lead-based paint hazards have been or will be identified and controlled and have passed or will pass an independent dust clearance test that determines that the property contains no lead-contaminated dust prior to occupancy or use. Priority rental target housing projects may include units occupied by severely lead-poisoned children and units in a building that are likely to contain lead-based paint hazards. For purposes of this section, "public financial assistance" means any grant, loan or allocation of tax credits funded by the state or the federal government, or any of their agencies or instrumentalities.
