Exhibit 2 <br />5. Permanent Replacement Housing Needs <br />Replacement housing needs, as expressed in this plan, are defined by the total number of required <br />replacement units and distribution of those units by bedroom size. The projected number of <br />required units by bedroom size is calculated by comparing current data for household size with <br />the Owner's replacement housing occupancy standards. These standards, generally, allow for up <br />to two persons in a studio unit, three persons in a one -bedroom unit, five persons in a two - <br />bedroom unit, seven persons in a three -bedroom unit and nine or more persons in a four -bedroom <br />unit. <br />When determining the comparable size of the replacement unit under the State relocation <br />programs, the number of all household members is taken into consideration regardless of legal <br />presence status. Under the URA, when determining the size of the replacement unit needed, only <br />the legally present members of the household are considered. based on the occupancy standard <br />above. The displaced households will potentially have a choice of two relocations programs, <br />including the Federal URA or the State program, under which to submit claims for assistance <br />and under which the size of the comparable replacement unit will be determined. <br />Because the specific 15 households who will be permanently displaced have not yet been <br />identified, based on current household sizes, it is assumed the replacement housing needs may <br />include one-, two-, three- and four -bedroom apartments units. <br />The Project site is within a densely populated mixed -use area with retail shopping, personal <br />services, restaurants, medical facilities, parks, schools, opportunities for employment, public <br />facilities, social services, and public transportation. <br />6. Preferred Area to Relocate <br />Once the households to be permanently displaced have been identified, they will be <br />interviewed to determine their preferred areas to relocate. <br />2 <br />
