The Anti-Displacement and Relocation Assistance Plan set forth below is hereby adopted, and should any of the activities involving construction of the water improvements involve demolition or conversion of low-income housing units, the adopted plan will be adhered to.
(A) The city will replace all occupied and vacant occupiable low- and moderate-income housing as a direct result of activities assisted with funds provided under the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 being 42 U.S.C. §§ 5301 et seq., as amended, and as described in 24 C.F.R. § 570.488. HUD regulations have extended this requirement to the HOME Program as well.
(B) All replacement housing will be provided within three years of the commencement of the demolition or rehabilitation relating to conversion. Before obligating or expending funds that will directly result in such demolition or conversion, the city will make public and submit to the Office of Housing and Community Partnerships the following information in writing:
(1) A description of the proposed assisted activity;
(2) The location of each site on a map and the number of dwelling units by bedroom size that will be demolished or converted to a use other than as low- and moderate-income dwelling units as a direct result of the assisted activity;
(3) A time schedule for the commencement and completion of the demolition or conversion;
(4) The general location on a map and approximate number of dwelling units by bedroom size that will be provided as replacement dwelling units;
(5) The source of funding and a time schedule for the provision of replacement dwelling units;
(6) The basis for concluding that each replacement dwelling unit will remain a low- and moderate-income unit for at least ten years for the date of initial occupancy;
(7) An analysis determining whether a dwelling unit proposed to be demolished is occupiable or not; and
(8) An analysis determining whether a dwelling unit proposed to be demolished or converted is considered a low- and moderate-income unit.
(C) The city will provide relocation assistance, as described in 24 C.F.R. § 570.488, to each low- and moderate-income dwelling to another use as a direct result of assisted activities.
(D) Consistent with the goals and objectives under the Act, the city agrees to provide substantial levels of assistance to persons displaced by HUD assisted programs and will further seek to minimize displacement of persons as a result of assisted activities.
