facilities actually used for institutional purposes in the Project Area. The Agency will meet its
relocation responsibilities through the use of its staff and consultants, supplemented by assistance
from local realtors, social agencies, and civic organizations.
The Agency does not anticipate that implementation of the
Plan will dislocate businesses, residents, or local community institutions; however, it may be
necessary for the Agency to undertake relocation actions at some time during project
implementation. As such, specific businesses, residents, or local community institutions to be
relocated cannot be identified at this time. If relocation activities are undertaken, the Agency will
handle those relocation cases which result from project activities on an individual case-by*ase
basis.
As provided in Section 33411.1 of the Law, the Agency
shall not displace persons or families of low and moderate income unless and until there is a
suitable housing unit available and ready for occupancy by such displaced person or family at
rents comparable to those at the time of their displacement. It is the Agency's stated objective
that if relocation is necessary, all site residents be rehoused with a minimum of hardship; in
accommodations which are decent, safe, sanitary and suitable to their individual needs; located in
areas not less desirable than the Project Area in regard to public utilities and public and
commercial facilities; reasonably accessible to their places of employment; and priced within their
financial means.
