The provisions of this chapter, as interpreted and applied, shall be held to be the minimum requirements for the promotion of the public health, safety, convenience, comfort and general welfare, and, more particularly, for the purposes set forth in § 250-4, and for the provision of a gradual remedy for existing conditions that are detrimental thereto.
