§ 51063. Relocation payments shall be made to persons and families of low or moderate inco

Relocation payments shall be made to persons and families of low or moderate income who are residents displaced because of temporary or permanent displacement for rehabilitation work assisted under this part, or rent increases resulting from rehabilitation, pursuant to the Uniform Relocation and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (42 U.S.C., Sec. 4601) or Chapter 16 (commencing with Section 7260) of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, middle-income families who decide against occupying the rehabilitated housing shall not continue to receive relocation payments. The agency shall also insure that the relocation payments and the relocation advisory assistance specified therein shall be provided. Pursuant to the provisions of this section, the agency shall insure relocation payments are provided to persons and families involuntarily displaced in making a site or structure available for rehabilitation or construction financed under this part, or in the alternative may require the housing sponsor receiving a loan commitment pursuant to this part to make such payments and provide such assistance, whether such displacement has occurred in anticipation of the loan commitment or will occur subsequent thereto. For purposes of this section, displacement includes relocation occurring because of a qualified person or family’s inability to pay increased rentals resulting from rehabilitation, or involuntary temporary or permanent displacement of a qualified person or family to allow rehabilitation work to be done.
