dc.description.abstract | The development and maintenance of adequate shelter for Texas families and
individuals has depended historically upon public policies and programs at
the federal and local levels. Texas state government has played a passive
role while other states in recent years have taken a more active part in
trying to assure decent housing for their residents. The state's own
1971 survey of housing conditions in Texas indicated the inadequacy of
federal and local government programs at that time to meet housing needs.
The Texas Research League study that prompted this survey, furthermore,
foresaw the likelihood that housing conditions would worsen unless federal
policies were changed and local programs were supplemented by a state effort
to save as much marginal housing as possible.
This study relies upon the state's findings in 1971 and at the same time
brings up to date the earlier analysis of the prospective impact of federal
policies by examining the new federal Housing and Community Development
Act adopted in 1974. It also surveys the housing role assumed by several
states in the last few years and examines program options for Texas state
government. The report concentrates special attention on state-sponsored
housing rehabilitation but considers possible solutions to other housing
problems as well.
Based upon the findings of this study, the Texas Advisory Commission on
Intergovernmental Relations reaches 10 basic conclusions and offers three
major recommendations for state and federal action. | |
