This section states two purposes of a law about regulatory barriers to affordable housing. First, it wants state and local governments to find and remove barriers that raise housing costs. Second, it wants to link federal housing aid to those removal efforts.
This section sets out two purposes for sections 12705a through 12705d of this title: (1) to encourage state* and local governments to identify and remove "regulatory barriers to affordable housing*" -- barriers that are excessive, unnecessary, duplicative, or exclusionary -- because they significantly raise housing costs and limit the supply of affordable housing; and (2) to strengthen the link between federal housing assistance* and state and local efforts to find and get rid of those barriers.
The purposes of sections 12705a to 12705d of this title are—
to encourage State* and local governments to further identify and remove regulatory barriers to affordable housing* (including barriers that are excessive, unnecessary, duplicative, or exclusionary) that significantly increase housing costs and limit the supply of affordable housing; and
to strengthen the connection between Federal housing assistance* and State and local efforts to identify and eliminate regulatory barriers.
