The Department will monitor on a continuing basis the needs <br />of all displaced persons in order to minimize hardship to <br />such persons. <br />II. RESIDENTIAL RELOCATION PAYMENTS PROGRAM <br />The Relocation Payments Program will help eligible <br />residential occupants by paying certain costs and expenses. <br />These costs are limited to those necessary for or incidental <br />to the purchasing or renting of the replacement dwelling and <br />actual reasonable moving expenses to a new location within <br />50 -miles of the displacees property. Any actual moving costs <br />in excess of the 50 -miles are the responsibility of the <br />displaces. The Residential Relocation Program can be <br />summarized as follows: <br />(1) Movinq Costs <br />Any displaced person, who was "lawfully" in occupancy <br />of the acquired property regardless of the length of <br />occupancy in the property acquired, will be eligible for <br />reimbursement of moving costs. Displacees will receive, <br />either the actual reasonable costs involved in moving <br />themselves and personal property up to a maximum of 50 <br />miles, or a fixed payment based on the number of <br />furnished or unfurnished rooms of their present dwelling, <br />not to exceed $300.00. In addition, residential dis- <br />placees choosing the fixed room count method, will be <br />granted a flat $200.00 dislocation allowance for a <br />maximum of $500.00 under the fixed moving cost method. <br />The dislocation allowance is designed to cover incidental <br />moving expenses such as utility deposits, utility <br />connections, cable TV and phone hook -ups. <br />
