Holdover Tenancies The City's acquisition schedule may allow some residential tenants to remain in occupancy of the City's acquired properties for periods as long as six months prior to displacement. It is anticipated that by adding time to the relocation process, residential tenants would benefit by having greater flexibility to plan a move around school schedules, as an example, orother personal considerations. Holdover tenants would be required to enter into a Rental Agreement with the City and make monthly payments. The City would assume responsibility for all property management functions. Holdover tenants would be required to conform to state and local law and the requirements of the City's Rental Agreement, or face eviction in conformance with the City's eviction policy as set forth in Section V.E. of this Plan. 21 55B-32
