What the legislature intended to encompass in these statutes through its references to “health hazard” is ambiguous. As a result, we must examine the legislative history to determine what type of harm was intended to be prevented. Both statutes arose from Public Acts 1971, No. 71-194, entitled “An Act to Enforce the Elimination of Lead-Based Paint in Housing Accommodations,” and the legislative history reflects that a clear purpose of the act was to end the health problems arising specifically from the presence of lead-based paint. 14 H.R. Proc., Pt. 4,1971 Sess., pp. 1766-69; 14 S. Proc., Pt. 4,1971 Sess., p. 1533.
