State standards for numerous sensitive receptors, if adequate sound barriers <br />cannot feasibly be provided because of access and sight distance requirements. <br />C. housing Displacement <br />Acquisition of needed right -of -way and completion of the proposed improvements <br />would result in the removal of 163 housing units (including both single and multi- <br />family units). Removal of these housing units would displace approximately 538 <br />residents (assuming an average household size of 3.3) who would need <br />comparable, decent, safe and sanitary replacement housing in a nearby <br />neighborhood of their choice. A proper and adequate residential relocation <br />program will be complicated by the mixed Hispanic, Asian and Caucasian <br />ethnicity of the displaced households and by the expected high percentage of <br />lower income households involved. As discussed in the Draft Relocation Study, <br />the City will retain Spanish and Vietnamese - speaking relocation agents and <br />interpreters to facilitate relocation of these affected minority groups. Graphic <br />illustrations of the parcel by parcel right- of-way requirements and displacement <br />sites are presented in Figures A and B of Appendix A- <br />D. Business Displacement <br />Acquisition of the needed right -o£- -way and completion of the proposed im- <br />provements could result in the displacement of 99 private business firms in the <br />project area. This could result in the temporary or even permanent lass of <br />employment and income for the 594 employees that are involved (assuming an <br />average of six employees per business). <br />Many of the potential displaced businesses rely heavily on iocal patronage, due <br />to neighborhood identification and ethnic ties. These business would have <br />greater difficulty in successfully relocating to a new location. Some of these firms <br />may be forced to close permanently as a result. <br />Graphic illustrations of the parcel -by- parcel right -of -way requirements and <br />potential displacement sites are presented in Figures A and B of Appendix A- <br />E. Neighborhood Character and Minority Groups <br />The net effects of the proposed street widening with respect to neighborhood <br />character and minority groups would be most evident in terms of physical <br />appearance and a reduced influence of Hispanic and Asian minorities as <br />components of the local population and local business community. These are <br />unavoidable consequences of any street widening alternative, due to the right -of- <br />way acquisition requirements and the fact that Hispanic and Asian minorities are <br />the largest components of the local population. The local citizen -based Project <br />Area Committee (PAC), established to provide direct community input into the <br />-vii- <br />
