3. It is hereby found, determined and declared� that
the purpose of the Project is and the effect thereof will be to
promote the public welfare by the attraction, encouragement and
development of economically sound industry, agriculture and
commerce so as to prevent, so far as possible, the emergence of
blighted and marginal lands and areas , of chronic unemployment;
the retention and development of industry to use the available
r`esources of the community, in order to retain �the benefit of
their exi�ting investment in educational and pu,blic service .
facilities, by halting the movement of talented and educated
•f'.�• personnel of mature age to other areas and thus preserving �the ,
• economic and human resources needed as a base for providing
governmental services and facilities; and the more intensive
development of land available in the area to provide a more
adequate tax base to finance the cost of governmental services in
the City, County, and School District where the Project is
located.
