of disease and crime, constitutes an economic and social liability imposing onerous burdens which
decrease the tax base and reduce tax revenues, substantially impairs or arrests sound growth,
retards the provision of housing accommodations, aggravates traffic problems, and substantially
hampers the elimination of traffic hazards and the improvement of traffic facilities and that the
prevention and elimination of slums and blight is a matter of state policy and state concern in
order that the state and the counties and municipalities shall not continue to be endangered by
areas which are focal centers of disease, promote juvenile delinquency, and consume an excessive
