Fairview Bridge Replacement and Street Improvements: Relocation Plan <br />9 <br />III. Relocation Resources <br />The Federal Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of <br />1970 (URA), as amended, and the California Relocation Assistance Law provides that no <br />eligible residential persons shall be required to move from their dwelling unless comparable <br />replacement dwellings are available to such persons. The purpose of this section is to <br />identify whether sufficient comparable replacement housing resources exist for all potential <br />residential displacees. The City is committed to making every effort to satisfactorily relocate <br />all displaced occupants. <br />A. Methodology <br />To determine the availability of residential sites prior to the displacement of occupants from <br />the Project area, resources were researched through the following sources: <br />• Internet sources (MLS listings, Zillow, etc.); <br />• Classified rental listings from local publications, and; <br />• Contacts with real estate/property management companies serving the community. <br />B. Replacement Housing Availability <br />1. Residential For-Sale and Rental Housing <br />A housing resource survey was conducted to determine the availability of replacement <br />housing within the City of Santa Ana sufficient to meet the needs of displaced rental tenants <br />and homeowners. <br />The replacement housing survey considered available rooms for rent, one-, and three- <br />bedroom conventional housing for rent and three-bedroom conventional housing for sale. <br />This data is summarized in Tables 4 and 5, below. The conventional housing survey, Table <br />4, identified 40 currently available, rooms for rent, one-, and three-bedroom conventional <br />housing units for rent. The survey of available single-family residences for sale, Table 5, <br />identified 22 currently available three-bedroom housing units for sale. The individual figures <br />for number of units found by bedroom size are presented in the tables, as well as location <br />and price range. <br />Table 4: Availability and Cost of Replacement Rental Housing (Conventional) <br />Number of <br />Bedrooms Property Type Number <br />Available City(s) Price Range <br />Lease <br />Room for <br />rent <br />Duplex/SFR 9 Santa Ana $700-$1,550 <br />One Apartment 17 Santa Ana, Garden <br />Grove, Orange, <br />Anaheim, Tustin, Irvine <br />$1,375-$2,875 <br />Three Duplex/Triplex/Townhome 14 Santa Ana, Garden <br />Grove, Anaheim, <br />Tustin, Irvine, Orange <br />$2,650-$5,500 <br />Source: Multiple Listing Service and Zillow, accessed January 25, 2022.
