MOBILE HOMES 5.4 Acquisition of Mobile Homes. The public agency may purchase mobile homes where: (1) The structural condition of the mobile home is such that it cannot be moved without substantial damage or unreasonable cost; or (2) The mobile home is not considered to be a decent, safe and sanitary dwelling unit as defined in section 2.1(d) of this Article. 5.4 Partial Acquisition of Mobile Home Park. Where the public agency determines that a sufficient portion of a mobile home park is taken to justify the operator of such park to move his business or go out of business the owners and occupants of the mobile home dwellings not within the actual taking but who are forced to move shall be eligible to receive the same payments as though their dwellings were within the actual taking. 5.5 Mobile Homes as Replacement Dwellinqs. A mobile home may be considered a replacement dwelling provided: (1) The mobile home meets standards of decent, safe and sani- tary housing; (2) The mobile home is placed in a fixed location: (a) In a mobile home park which is licensed and operating under State law; or (b) In a mobile home subdivision wherein the displaced person owns the lot on which the mobile home is placed; or (c) On real property owned or leased by the displaced person in other than a mobile home subdivision, provided such place- ment is in accordance with State and local laws or ordinances and provided such placement was made under permit from the State or lo- cal agency. 5.6 Computation on Next Hiqhest Type. When a comparable mobile home is not available it will be necessary to calculate the replacement housing payment on the basis of the next highest type of dwelling that is available and meets the appli- cable requirements and standards, i.e., a higher type mobile home or a conventional dwelling.
