Guam § 17106 - Relocation Assistance Advisory Programs.

§ 17106. Relocation Assistance Advisory Programs.

(a) Whenever the acquisition of real property for a program or project

undertaken by an agency will result in the displacement of any person on or

after the effective date of this Chapter, the agency shall provide a relocation

assistance advisory program for displaced persons which shall offer the

services prescribed in Subsection (b) of this section. If the agency

determines that any person occupying property immediately adjacent to the

real property acquired is caused substantial economic injury because of the

acquisition, it may offer the person relocation advisory services under the

program.

(b) Each relocation assistance program required by Subsection (a) shall

include such measures, facilities, or services as may be necessary or

appropriate in order (1) to determine the needs of displaced persons,

business concerns and nonprofit organizations for relocation assistance; (2)

to assist owners of displaced businesses and farm operations in obtaining

and becoming established in suitable business locations or replacement

farms; (3) to supply information concerning programs of the federal

government and the government of Guam offering assistance to displaced

persons and business concerns; (4) to assist in minimizing hardships to

displaced persons in adjusting to relocation; and (5) to secure, to the

greatest extent practicable, the coordination of relocation activities with

other project activities and other planned or proposed governmental actions

in the community or nearby areas which may affect the carrying out of the

relocation program.
