Last resort housing benefits are, except for the amounts of payments and the methods of making them, the same as those benefits for standard relocation as explained above.

In certain exceptional situations, last resort housing may also be used for tenants of less than 90 -days. After the first written offer to acquire the property has been made, the Department will, within a reasonable length of time, personally contact the displacees to gather important information relating to: (a) Preferences in area of relocation; (b) Number of people to be displaced and distribution of adults and children according to age and sex; (c) Location of schools and employment; (d) Special arrangements needed to accommodate any handicapped member of the family; (e) Financial ability to relocate into a comparable replacement dwelling which will house all members of the family decently.
