8-3-11. Renting of housing units -- Requirements as to fixing of rentals by authorities generally


It is declared to be the policy of this state that each housing authority shall manage and operate its housing projects or, in the event of its use of a private enterprise agreement, shall cause each housing project subject thereto to be managed and operated in an efficient manner so as to enable it to fix the rentals for dwelling accommodations for persons of low income at the lowest possible rates consistent with its providing decent, safe, and sanitary dwelling accommodations for persons of low income, and that no housing authority shall construct or operate the dwelling accommodations in any such project that are occupied or reserved for occupancy by persons of low income for a profit or as a source of revenue to the city or the county. To this end, an authority shall fix the rentals for those dwelling accommodations in such housing projects that are occupied or reserved for occupancy by persons of low income at no higher rates than it shall find necessary in order to produce revenues which, together with all other available moneys, revenues, income, and receipts of the authority from whatever sources derived, will be sufficient:

(1) To pay, as the same become due, the principal of and the interest on the bonds of the authority which from time to time are outstanding;

(2) To meet the cost of maintaining and operating the eligible housing units in such projects that are used, occupied, or reserved for use or occupancy by persons of low income, including the cost of any insurance; to meet the administrative expenses of the authority; and to provide reasonable reserves for maintenance and operating expenses; and

(3) To create and maintain such reasonable reserves as may be required in connection with the issuance of any bonds of the authority now outstanding or hereafter issued, and to create and maintain reasonable reserves for its future operations.
