The Flood Disaster Protection Act Of 1973: A Rational Approach To Flood Damage Prevention, Larry J. Wilson
The Flood Disaster Protection Act Of 1973: A Rational Approach To Flood Damage Prevention, Larry J. Wilson
IUSTITIA
Throughout history, man has utilized rivers for water supply, transportation, power generation, and waste disposal. This strong relationship has encouraged the location of human settlements near rivers and streams despite the risk of periodic flooding. The modern technology of transportation and public services has reduced the necessity for riverside locations, but the development of flood plains in urban areas has continued, resulting in the periodic loss of human life and property when flooding has occurred. Within the United States, flooding has taken over 5000 lives in the last fifty years and causes an estimated $1.25 billion in property damages annually.' …

Constitutional Law—Zoning For Single-"Family" Dwellings Is Not Denial Of Equal Protection To Unrelated Persons—Village Of Belle Terre V. Boraas, 416 U.S. 1 (1974), Albert G. Marquis

Six unrelated persons resided in a single dwelling in Belle Terre, New York, in violation of the Village's zoning ordinance.

The lessors of the residence were served with notice that failure of …

Lead-Based Paint Poisoning: Remedies For The Hud Low-Income Homeowner When Neglect Is No Longer Benign, Thomas P. Sarb
Lead-Based Paint Poisoning: Remedies For The Hud Low-Income Homeowner When Neglect Is No Longer Benign, Thomas P. Sarb
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Lead-based paint poisoning is a completely preventable disease which particularly afflicts young children living in deteriorating areas of the cities. It is caused by the ingestion of paint chips containing significant amounts of lead that have fallen or been picked off ceilings, floors, and woodwork of older houses. Repeated ingestion of such paint chips can lead to mental retardation, permanent impairment of intellectual ability, cerebral palsy, and blindness. Every year at least 400,000 children show some effect of lead poisoning; 50,000 of them need treatment; and 200 children die of the disease. The early symptoms of lead poisoning are changes …
Federal Leased Housing Assistance In Private Accommodations: Section 8, Nancy S. Cohen
Federal Leased Housing Assistance In Private Accommodations: Section 8, Nancy S. Cohen
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
The public housing program, which does not involve private developers, was also criticized as wasteful, poorly conceived, and inequitable. Further, it appeared to some that the federal government was assuming the losses caused by the accelerating decline of large cities. As a result of various investigations and HUD audits, the FHA was in a state of chaos after recurring reorganizations. The administration's suspension of housing subsidies on January 5, 1973 was an added impetus for the passage of a new act. The resulting legislation, the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974,20 is the federal government's first significant set of …
School Desegregation Versus Public Housing Desegregation: The Local Housing District And The Metropolitan Housing District, Leonard S. Rubinowitz, Roger J. Dennis
School Desegregation Versus Public Housing Desegregation: The Local Housing District And The Metropolitan Housing District, Leonard S. Rubinowitz, Roger J. Dennis
Roger J. Dennis
Federal housing programs are planned for and implemented on a metropolitan or regional basis; consequently, to remedy federal discrimination in the administration of such programs, it is not only appropriate but necessary that the adopted remedy be on a similar metropolitan or regional basis. In this way, federal housing programs are distinguishable from the public school context, since educational programs are planned for and carried out on a local school district basis. In Milliken v. Bradley, a school desegregation case, the United States Supreme Court held that a federal court should not impose metropolitan-wide "inter-district" relief for de jure …

Neighborhood Preservation In New York City, Phillip Weitzman
Neighborhood Preservation In New York City, Phillip Weitzman
Fordham Urban Law Journal
The push to the suburbs, financed in large part by federal mortgage guarantees and highway construction moneys and bolstered by exclusionary zoning, has generated forces which tend to leave old urban neighborhoods in shambles. The syndrome of housing deterioration is well known. The dilemma of the deteriorating neighborhood is heightened in a city such as New York, where a large proportion of its population lives in old multiple family buildings. After almost forty years marked by a succession of programs designed to eliminate slums and blighted areas, New York City has concluded that its older neighborhoods must be protected from …
The New York City Housing Receivership And Community Management Programs, Mark Grossman
The New York City Housing Receivership And Community Management Programs, Mark Grossman
Fordham Urban Law Journal
Each year New York City landlords abandon buildings containing an estimated 10,000 apartments, forcing tenants to leave as the ownerless buildings plunge into decay. At least half of these buildings are structurally solid and might last several more decades if not abandoned. Most are found in areas where "problem" buildings- buildings which have a potential for abandonment- will most likely be found. New York City has instituted a number of programs for dealing with buildings which are headed toward abandonment. They include code-enforcement, emergency repair and receivership programs, foreclosure for nonpayment of property taxes, and rehabilitation programs involving municipal loans, …
