ADDITIONAL INFORMATION <br />Reimbursement for moving costs and replacement housing <br />payments are not considered income for the purpose of the <br />Internal Revenue Code of 1954, or resources for the purpose <br />of determining the extent of eligibility of a displacee for <br />assistance under the Social Security Act, local "Section 8" <br />Housing Programs, or other Federal Assistance Programs. <br />Persons who are eligible for relocation payments and who <br />are legally occupying the property required for the project will <br />not be asked to move without first being given at least 90 days <br />advance notice, in writing. Occupants of any type of dwelling, <br />eligible for relocation payments, will not be required to move <br />unless at least one comparable "decent, safe, and sanitary" <br />replacement residence, which is open to all persons regardless <br />of race, color, religion, sex, or national origin, is available <br />or has been made available to them by the State. <br />Any person, business, farm, or nonprofit organization which <br />has been refused a relocation payment by the Department of <br />Transportation or believes that the payments offered are <br />inadequate may appeal for a special hearing of their complaint. <br />No legal assistance is required. Information about the appeal <br />procedure is available from a Department of Transportation <br />Relocation Advisor. <br />
