MOORPARK REDEVELOMENT AGENCY
AGENDA REPORT
To: Honorable City Council and Agency Board of Directors
From: Nancy Burns, Senior Management Analyst
Date: February 25, 2002
(City Council and Moorpark Redevelopment Agency
Meeting of March 6, 2002)
Subject: CONSIDER RELOCATION PLAN /IMPACT CONVERSION REPORT FOR
PROPOSED RELOCATION OF RESIDENTS OF MOORPARK
MOBILEHOME PARK
BACKGROUND
On May 15, 2001, the City initiated negotiations with the owner
of Moorpark Mobilehome Park to acquire the mobilehome park.
These negotiations led to the acquisition of the mobilehome park
by the Redevelopment Agency on September 19, 2001, for $881,500.
This purchase included three (3) mobilehomes on the site, which
were owned by the former park owner and were being rented to the
occupants. There are twenty -four (24) units owned by the
occupants. One (1) mobilehome is rented by an offsite owner to
the occupants.
DISCUSSION
California Code of Regulations Title 25, Division 1, Chapter 6,
Subchapter 1 "California Relocation Assistance and Real Property
Acquisition Guidelines" provide for certain benefits and
relocation assistance to tenants and homeowners who are
displaced due to the action of a public entity. A Relocation
Plan must be developed which identifies the results of a needs
assessment survey, a housing resource study, and details of the
policies and procedures the Agency will follow in the proposed
relocation program.

In addition, a Conversion Impact Report must be prepared for the
legislative body when a mobilehome park closure is proposed.
The legislative body in this instance is the Moorpark City
Council. The Conversion Impact Report must address the
availability of adequate replacement housing in mobilehome parks
and relocation costs. The Relocation Plan (Exhibit 1) satisfies
the requirement for a Conversion Impact Report.
Residents may request a hearing before the City Council on the
sufficiency of the Conversion Impact Report. The joint public
hearing on March 6 is to provide an opportunity for input to the
Redevelopment Agency on the Relocation Plan by affected
residents and other interested parties, and to provide the
opportunity for any resident to be heard before the City Council
on the sufficiency of the Conversion Impact Report. Any changes
directed by the Agency Board will be made to the Plan and any
comments received at the public hearing March 6 will be included
as an addendum to the Plan. Responses will be provided to
comments received. (This process is similar to that required
when a Environmental Impact Report is prepared and released for
comment. The Final Environmental Impact Report includes the
EIR, comments, and responses to those comments.) The Relocation
Plan will be presented to the Redevelopment Agency on March 20,
2002, for adoption. On that same date, the City Council will be
asked to approve the Conversion Impact Report, which will
include the Plan, all comments received, and responses to those
comments. Council will also be asked to approve a Change of Use
of the Park on March 20. See table below for proposed schedule.

All required notices and informational brochures, consistent
with State law, have been offered in both English and Spanish.
(Exhibit 2.) Interviews have been conducted in English and, if
requested, in Spanish. A meeting was conducted with Park
residents on August 29, 2001, to discuss the relocation process
and answer residents' questions. A Spanish language interpreter
assisted with this meeting.
Three tenant households residing adjacent to the mobilehome park
have been included in the relocation plans. One household
resides in a house owned by the Redevelopment Agency; the other
households are tenants on a property which will need to be
acquired for the eventual development of the site for public
purposes. If, at a later date, the project is to be expanded to
include commercial property, the businesses at or near the
northwest corner of High Street and Moorpark Avenue will be
interviewed and relocation information and assistance will be
provided, according to State law.
Information about housing opportunities in other mobilehome
parks and apartment buildings and referrals to governmental and
social service agencies have been provided to residents. One
household that may be eligible for Section 8 assistance has
received guidance. One household already has closed escrow on
the purchase of a newer mobilehome. Seven households are in
escrow to purchase mobilehomes in other parks. One resident has
relocated to Archstone Moorpark.
Residents being dislocated are eligible for moving expenses and
one of the following: a) a lump sum amount to cover the
additional cost to rent a comparable dwelling unit (tenant
occupants); or b) down payment assistance plus the cost
differential of space rent at another mobilehome park, compared
with their existing space rent (owner occupants) . Benefits for
rental assistance are limited to a forty -two (42) month period.
"Last Resort Housing" payments refer to benefits which exceed
maximum benefits provided in State law and are based on
residents' ability to pay. They are required if affordable
"comparable replacement housing" cannot be located. High
housing costs in Ventura County have made "Last Resort Housing"
payments necessary for six Park tenants to date.

INTRODUCTION
The Moorpark Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency ") has purchased the mobile home park
located at 83 High Street, in the City of Moorpark, with the intent to further develop the Moorpark
Civic Center. In addition, the Agency intends to initiate negotiations for the purchase of a single
family residence with two dwellings that is contiguous to the park, for the expansion of the Civic
Center. A third parcel, which is already owned by the City of Moorpark, also with a single family
residence, will be incorporated into this project. Asa result, the project, located on 3 parcels of land,
will require the acquisition of improved real property which will cause the displacement of persons
and/or personal property.
The real property that has been or will be acquired will cause the permanent displacement of thirty
(31) residential households. Of the twenty- eight(28) mobile homes, twenty- four(24) are owner
occupied. Of the three single family residences, all are tenant occupied.
The dwelling units which are the subject of this relocation plan are generally located in the City of
Moorpark, County of Ventura directly west of Moorpark Avenue and north of High Street. The
subject properties are contiguous to the Moorpark Civic Center.
Please see Figure 1 and 2 below of the project site location:

Figure 2: Project Site Location
Pacific Relocation Consultants, a consulting firm specializing in providing relocation assistance
consulting services, has prepared and will administer this Relocation Plan (the "Plan "), under the
direction of, or involvement with, the Moorpark Redevelopment Agency.
This Plan provides the results of a needs assessment survey, a housing resource study and details of
the displacing entity's proposed relocation program. This Plan sets forth policies and procedures
necessary to conform with statutes and regulations established by the California Relocation
Assistance Law, California Government Code section 7260 et seq. (the "CRAL ") and the California
Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Guidelines, Title 25, California Code of
Regulations, chapter 6, section 6000 et seq. (the "Guidelines ").
If there are federal funds involved in this project, this Plan and benefits may also need to conform
with the Uniform Relocation Act (46 U.S.C. § 4600 et seq.), its implementing regulations (49
C.F.R.) Part 24) and other requirements and regulations of the applicable funding source.
No mandatory displacement activities will take place prior to the required reviews and approval of
this Plan, along with satisfaction of Government Code Section 65863.7 and Civil Code Section
798.56, as discussed later.

RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
A. ASSESSMENT OF NEEDS
To obtain information for the preparation of this Plan, personal interviews were conducted with 30
of the households located on the Project site. One of the. residents is currently living in an assisted
living facility, with no means of contact.
The mobile homes consist of twenty -one (21) one - bedroom units and six (6) two - bedroom units.
There is some overcrowding, and four of the one - bedroom units may need to be upgraded to two -
bedroom units. Owner- occupied units will be referred to units with the same number of bedrooms
as their current unit. The standard housing density utilized is two persons per bedroom and one
person in a common living area for tenant occupied units. If the family size is in excess of these
standards, then families would be referred to housing with an additional bedroom(s). Three
households live in small detached single family residences (SFR) and are tenant occupied.
A table is attached showing some of the household characteristics and needs. (See Attachment 1)
Also attached are the most current income limits for the "very low - ", "low - ", and "moderate -"
income categories as established by the Federal Department of Housing and Urban Development
(HUD) for Ventura County. (See Attachment 2)
POPULATION AND GROWTH RATE - VENTURA COUNTY AND MOORPARK
The Year 2000 Decennial U.S. Census has reported a population for the County of Ventura as of
April 01, 2001, of seven hundred fifty three thousand one hundred ninety -seven (753,197) and for
the City of Moorpark, thirty one thousand four hundred fifteen (31,415) persons of all ages. These
figures represent a twelve point six percent (12.6 %) and twenty -three point two percent (23.2 %)
increase, respectively, over the ten -year period since the last Decennial report.
ETHNICITY
The Year 2000 Census has reported that the ethnic mix in Moorpark was approximately seventy four
percent (i.e., 74.4 %) `White'; fourteen percent (i.e., 14.0 %) `Some other race'; six percent (i.e.,
5.6 %) `Asian'; four percent (i.e., 3.9 %) `Two or More Races'; two percent (i.e., 1.5 %) `Black or
African American'; one -half of one percent (i.e., 0.5 %) `American Indian and Alaska Native'; and
slightly more than one -tenth of one percent (0.1 %) `Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander'.
Most significantly regarding ethnicity, however, twenty eight percent (i.e., 27.8 %) of Moorpark
respondents (i.e., 8,735) further identified themselves in the year 2000 Census as being `Hispanic
or Latino (of any race)'. This response indicates that those of `Hispanic or Latino' origin constitute
the second largest identifiable ethnic grouping in Moorpark.
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 3
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
NEIGHBORHOOD DEMOGRAPHIC CHARACTERISTICS
The single Census Tract (i.e., 76.06) within which the project site is located encompasses
approximately two thousand four hundred acres (2,400 ac.) and is home to six hundred forty (640)
persons of all ages; a relatively sparse population density of less than four ( <1) persons per acre (i.e.,
3.75 persons /ac).
This same Census reports the ethnic mix within this single Census Tract as approximately sixty
percent (59.84 %) `White'; thirty -one percent (30.78 %) `Some Other Race'; five percent (4.69 %)
`Two or More Races'; three percent (3.13 %) `Asian'; and, > one percent each `American Indian &
Alaska Native' and,`Black or African American' (i.e., 0.94% and, 0.62 %, respectively). There were
no Census respondents in the category `Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander'. When those
who further identified themselves as `Hispanic or Latino (of any race)' are factored in, this group -
at a population of three hundred sixty -eight (368) within the Census Tract - is the second largest
identifiable ethnic grouping in the neighborhood; constituting fifty- seven, decimal five zero percent
(57.50 %) of the residents as compared to fifty -nine decimal eight four percent (59.84 %) `White'.

PROJECT SITE DEMOGRAPHICS
There were reported to be 80 persons located within the Project site, residing within 31 households.
Twelve households reported being Hispanic, with Spanish being the primary language. The
households in the Project site have an average occupancy of 2.67 persons per unit. Complete income
information was not reported by two of the households. Until income is verified, a precise
determination could not be made as to the impact that income plays in the rental differential
calculations. Income verification will occur prior to the issuance of any entitlements. It appears that
there is a widely varying family income range among all of the residential households within the
Project, from very low to median. The following table illustrates this distribution pursuant to the
HUD Income Category Limits for Ventura County, Attachment 2.

The neighborhood is located near to the downtown civic area and is made up of a mix of single -

LOCATION NEEDS AND PREFERENCES
Residents were interviewed and asked questions regarding household size and composition, income
and rental information, length and type of occupancy, disabilities/health problems, and preferences
related to replacement housing and location.
During the interview process there were no housing preferences or reported need to be close to
public transportation, employment, schools, public /social services and agencies, recreational
services, parks, community centers, or shopping. Four households have handicapped needs, which
will require special consideration for accessibility and perhaps proximity to medical facilities. The
residents who expressed special preferences indicated a desire to remain reasonably close to their
current location, i.e. City of Moorpark or Ventura County. A sample of the interview form used can
be found as Attachment 3.
Thirteen of the households reported their primary language was Spanish. Relocation Assistance
information and assistance will be provided through the primary language of the displaced occupants
in order to assure that all displaced occupants obtain a complete understanding of the relocation
program and eligible benefits.
B. REPLACEMENT HOUSING RESOURCES
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 5
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
A resource survey was made on or about the first two weeks of November to identify available
comparable, decent, safe and sanitary units in close proximity to the Project site. Although the
resource survey concentrated on mobile homes, many of the residents have the ability to use their
relocation assistance in the purchase of conventional housing. For non -owner occupied units,
referrals will also be made to both income restricted apartments and open market housing. There
were a number of additional referrals available which were not included due to information not being
available at the writing of the Plan as well as additional, superior referrals. (See Housing Survey -
Attachment 4).
As will be noted, lacking any extraordinary requirements, the Housing Resource Survey has
identified one -, two -, and three- bedroom Mobile Home units, both single and double wide, for sale.
Pricing ranges from $15,000 to $51,000. There are mobile homes, apartments, condominiums and
single family residences available, ranging from $725 to $1095 per month, for a one bedroom
unit, and $ 850 to $1425 per month for a two bedroom unit, $1150 to $1795 for a three bedroom
unit, and $1500 to $2300 for a four bedroom unit. The survey identified 41 Mobile Home units for
sale, and 38 apartment rental units, and 14 Single family residence rental units.
C. CONCURRENT RESIDENTIAL DISPLACEMENT
There are no projects now, or planned in the immediate future, which will impact negatively upon
the efforts and ability of the Agency in relocating the displacee households from the Project site.
D. TEMPORARY HOUSING
There is no anticipated need for temporary housing. Should such a need arise, the displacing entity
will respond appropriately and in conformance with all applicable laws and requirements.
E. PROGRAM ASSURANCES AND STANDARDS
There are adequate funds to relocate all the households. Services will be provided to ensure that
displacement does not result in different or separate treatment of households based on race,
nationality, color, religion, national origin, sex, marital status, familial status, disability or any other
basis protected by the federal Fair Housing Amendments Act, the Americans with Disabilities Act,
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, Title VIII of the
Civil Rights Act of 1968, the California Fair Employment & Housing Act, and the Unruh Act, as
well as any other arbitrary or unlawful discrimination.
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 6
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
No one will be displaced without 90 days notice and unless "comparable" replacement housing can
be located. "Comparable" housing includes standards such as: decent, safe, and sanitary (as defined
in § 6008(d) of the Guidelines); comparable as to the number of bedrooms, living space, and type
and quality of construction of the acquired unit but not lesser in rooms or living space than necessary
to accommodate the displaced household; in an area that does not have unreasonable environmental
conditions; not generally less desirable than the acquired unit with respect to location to schools,
employment, health and medical facilities, and other public and commercial facilities and services;
and within the financial means of the displaced household as defined in section 6008, subdivision
(c)(5) of the Guidelines.
The relocation program to be implemented by the displacing entity conforms with the standards and
provisions set forth in Government Code section 7260 et seq., the Guidelines, California Health and
Safety Code section 33410 et eq., if applicable, and all other applicable regulations and
requirements. In addition, those requirements set forth by State law for mobilehome park closures
will be followed, as addressed in the following section.
F. STATE MOBILEHOME PARK CLOSURE LAWS
This section outlines the requirements that must be met under state law to legally close a city -owned
mobilehome park in California. Both Government Code Section 65863.7 and Civil Code Chapter
2.5- Section 798.56 set forth requirements that must be met prior to a closure of a mobilehome park
and that apply to both publicly -owned and privately -owned parks.
California Mobilehome Park Closure Law
Government Code Sections 65863.7 and 65863.8 impose special impact report and notice
requirements on mobilehome park closures, and provide for local governments to require mitigation
of park closure impacts in certain instances.
Conversion Impact Report.
Section 65863.7(a) requires that, prior to the conversion of a mobilehome park to another use, or
prior to closure of a mobilehome park, the person or entity proposing the change in use shall file a
report on the impact of the closure on the displaced residents of the park. The report is required to
address the availability of adequate replacement housing in mobilehome parks and relocation costs.
Pursuant to Section 65863.7(i), if the closure of the park is the result of a decision by a local
governmental entity not to renew a conditional use permit or zoning variance, or is the result of any
other zoning or planning decision, the local government agency is deemed to be the person
proposing the change in use for purposes of preparing the Report.
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PACE 7
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
The Report must be filed with the legislative body of the local jurisdiction (in this case, the City
Council), and a copy of the Report shall be provided to each resident of the Park. The person
proposing the change in use (in this case the Agency) and each resident may request a hearing before
the City Council on the sufficiency of the Report. If a hearing is scheduled, residents must receive
at least 15 days prior notice of the hearing.
This Relocation Plan satisfies the requirements specified for a "Conversion Impact Report."
2. Mitigation Measures.
Pursuant to Section 65863.7(e), whether or not a hearing is scheduled, the City Council (or its
delegated advisory agency) shall review the report, and may require, as a condition of the change,
that the owner take steps to mitigate any adverse impact of the park closure on the ability of
displaced park residents to find adequate housing in a mobilehome park, which shall not exceed the
"reasonable costs of relocation ". Pursuant to subsection (i), if the Agency is the person proposing
the change in use, the Agency is required to take steps to mitigate the adverse impact of the change,
as outlined in subsection (e). No further guidance appears regarding the meaning of the "reasonable
costs of relocation ", although there appears to be consensus among those in the field that the statute
is not referring to the costs of relocation payments pursuant to state relocation law, but simply to the
plain meaning of relocation of the mobilehomes to a new site.
3. Notice requirements.
Pursuant to Government Code Section 65863.8, a local government may not take action on an
application for change in use of a mobilehome park unless, at least 30 days prior to the action, the
local government has informed the applicant in writing of the requirements of Civil Code Section
798.56 (discussed below) and all applicable local regulations requiring the applicant to notify park
residents of the proposed change. No action can be taken on the application until the applicant has
verified that park residents have been informed of the change in use. Although no formal application
will be required for the Agency to approve closure, the Agency should ensure that all residents have
at least 30 days notice of any City Council meeting where a change in use or a closure may be
approved.
Termination of Park Occupancy Due to Park Closure
Civil Code Section 798.56 sets forth the required just causes for termination of tenancy in a
mobilehome park. Subsection (g) specifies that change of use of the park or any portion thereof is
a reason for termination of tenancy, provided the following requirements have been met:
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 8
C'V' 'i-f rar'w..I'V
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
(1) The management gives the homeowners at least 15 days' written notice that the
management will be appearing before a local governmental board, commission, or body to
request permits for a change of use of the mobilehome park.
(2) After all required permits requesting a change of use have been approved by the local
governmental board, commission, or body, the management shall give the homeowners six
months' or more written notice of termination of tenancy. If the change of use requires no
local governmental permits, then notice shall be given 12 months or more prior to the
management's determination that a change of use will occur. The notice shall disclose and
describe in detail the nature of the change of use.
(3) The management shall give each proposed homeowner written notice thereof prior
to the inception of his or her tenancy that the management is requesting a change of use
before local governmental bodies or that a change of use request has been granted.
(4) The notice requirements for termination of tenancy set forth in Civil Code Sections
798.56 and 798.57 shall be followed if the proposed change actually occurs.
Civil Code Section 798.56(h) additionally requires that the impact report required pursuant to
Government Code Section 65863.7 shall be given to the homeowners or residents at the same time
that notice is required as described in (1) above.

household having questions in regard to relocation and /or assistance in relocating. Staff may be

and documentation in accordance with Agency- approved procedures.
Specific eligibility requirements and benefit plans will be detailed on an individual basis with all
displacees. In the course of personal interviews and follow -up visits, each displacee will be
counseled as to available options and the consequences of any choice with respect to financial
assistance.
Chapter 6, of Title 25 of the California Code of Regulations contains the relocation regulations
published by the California Department of Housing and Community Development ( "HCD ") that
apply to state and local agencies. Section 6008(g) defines a "dwelling" as "the place of permanent
or customary and usual abode of a person including ...a mobilehome ... which is either considered
to be real property under State law or cannot be moved without substantial damage or unreasonable
cost ". Additionally, §6008(g) states: y A second home shall be considered to be a dwelling only for
the purposes of establishing eligibility for payment for moving and related expenses ( as provided
in §6090 "Actual Reasonable Moving Expenses ").
Pursuant to this definition of dwelling, both primary owner- residents and part-time resident second
homeowners are entitled to the moving expenses detailed in §6090 as long as they meet the
eligibility requirements of §6034. Part-time residents are not entitled to replacement housing
payments.
In order to alleviate hardships for tenants who must pay move -in costs (such as first month's rent,
and security deposit), the Agency will provide advance benefit payments to assist displacees in
securing replacement housing units. Requests for advance payments will be expeditiously processed
to help avoid the loss of desirable, and appropriate replacement housing.
a Residential Moving Expense Payments
The subject households will be eligible to receive a payment for moving expenses. Payments will
be made based upon either a fixed room count schedule or an invoice for actual reasonable moving
expenses from a licensed professional mover.
1) Fixed Payment - A fixed payment for moving expenses based on the number of
rooms containing furniture or other personal property to be moved. The fixed
moving payment will be based upon the most recent Federal Highway
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 12
Ca�,r%O -1k +,%.r1r0M,d
RFi.nCATION PLAN - Hiah Street
Administration schedules maintained by the CaliforniaDepartmentof Transportation
( See Fixed Payment Moving Schedule — Attachment 9).
MWIV
2) Actual Reasonable Moving Expense Payments - The displaced households may elect
to have a licensed, professional mover perform the move; if so, the displacing entity
will pay for the actual cost of the move up to 50 miles and all reasonable charges for
packing, unpacking, insurance, and utility connection charges. The payment will be
made directly to the mover or as reimbursement to the displaced household.
b Rental Assistance/Down Payment Assistance
Displaced households who are residential tenants and who have established residency within the
Project site for a minimum of 90 days prior to the "initiation of negotiations" will be eligible for both
Rental Assistance and Moving Expenses Payments. Owner- Occupants of the mobile homes will be
eligible for Rental Assistance to cover "pad rent" differential, in addition to Moving Expenses and
Replacement Housing Payments.
"Initiation of Negotiations" is defined as the first written offer by the Agency to buy the property
from which the households will be displaced. In this case, the estimated date of the first written offer
to purchase the properties of the tenant households is May 15, 2001.
Except in the case of Last Resort situations, Rental Assistance Payments will be limited to a
maximum of $5,250 based upon the monthly housing need over a forty -two (42) month period. In
addition, the households may opt to apply the amount to which they are entitled toward the purchase
of a replacement unit (Guidelines section 6104).
Based upon the monthly housing need over a forty -two (42) month period. Table 2., following,
shows how monthly need is determined.

dependent in excess of three; (2) a deduction of 10% of total income for an elderly or disabled head of household; (3) a
deduction for recurring extraordinary medical expenses; defined for this purpose to mean medical expenses in excess of
3% of total income, where not compensated for, or covered by insurance or other sources; (4) a deduction of reasonable
amounts paid for the care of children or sick or incapacitated family members when determined to be necessary to
employment of the head of household or spouse, except that the amount deducted shall not exceed the amount of income
received by the person who would not otherwise be able to seek employment in the absence of such care.
If a household chooses to purchase a replacement home rather than rent, the household will have the
right to request a lump sum payment of the entire balance to which they are entitled.
c Mobilehome Replacement Housing Payments
Section 6112 describes the payments the residents are entitled to based on the status of the resident's
acquired dwelling and the resident's replacement dwelling. A household that owns a mobilehome
and rents the site from the Agency must receive the following payment:
1. If a manufactured home is not available, the amount necessary to purchase a conventional
non - manufactured replacement dwelling up to $22,250 (explained below) ( §6112(c)(5)(a)); or
2. The amount necessary to purchase a replacement manufactured home (up to $22,250) and
the amount necessary to lease, rent, or make a downpayment on a replacement site (up to $5,250)
( §6112(c)(5)(b)); or
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 14
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
3. If the household elects to rent a replacement mobilehome and site, the amount required to
do so up to $5,250 with the site rent included in the calculation ( §6112(c)(5)(c)).
Section 6102 outlines the benefits payable to a displaced owner who (1) owned and operated a
mobilehome for at least 180 days prior to the initiation of negotiations; and (2) purchased and
occupied a replacement dwelling within one year subsequent to the date on which the individual
received final payment for the mobilehome. Only primary owner - residents are eligible for §6102
benefits. Nonresident- second homeowners are not eligible for these benefits.
Eligible displaced persons are entitled to a payment not to exceed $22,500 for:
(1) The reasonable cost of a comparable replacement dwelling. This amount shall not exceed
the difference between the mobilehome acquisition price and the actual price of the replacement
housing;
(2) Increased interest costs for the replacement dwelling financing;
(3) Reasonable expenses incident to the purchase of the replacement dwelling; or
(4) The cost of rehabilitating an unsafe dwelling.
d. Assistance to Homeowners
Homeowners displaced by this Project will be eligible for relocation replacement housing payments
if the following conditions are met:
(a) The household has owned and occupied its unit for not less than 180 days
prior to the "Initiation of Negotiations," (See, Rental Assistance /Down
Payment Assistance above); and
(b) The household purchases and occupies a replacement unit within one year
from: (i) the date that the household receives the final payment from the
displacing entity for all the costs of the acquired unit - or - (ii) the date that
the household vacates the acquired unit, whichever is later.
Displaced homeowner households will receive assistance in locating a "comparable replacement"
unit and will be eligible for the following benefits, not to exceed $22,500. The displaced households
will be entitled to receive an amount equal to the difference between the price paid for the acquired
unit and the amount required to purchase a "comparable replacement" unit. The displacing entity
is allowed the following options in paying any price differential as explained in section 6102 of the
Guidelines.
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 15
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
With the wide disparity in pricing of Mobile Homes, and the Agency's desire to encourage residents
to upgrade their living situation, the "Schedule Method" will be used. Since the relocation process
will span a one year period, and the resource study has shown availability of replacement housing,
the "schedule method" also eliminates disparities between neighbors, due to the timing of their
referrals. When the Comparative Method is not feasible, as in this case, the displacing entity may
establish a schedule of reasonable acquisition costs of "comparable replacement" units based on a
current analysis of the housing market.
The following tables show the schedule of homeowner's assistance, including space rent, as
determined by the Housing Resource Survey. The rental assistance payment will be calculated based
on the current space rent and the scheduled space rent, determined by unit size :
Table 4: Replacement Housing Schedule
Small Single wide Mobile Home $25,500.00
Average Single wide Mobile Home $27,500.00
Large Single wide Mobile Home $29,500.00
Double wide Mobile Home $44,500.00
Homeowners who wish to rent a replacement dwelling, instead of purchasing, will be entitled to
Rental Assistance Payments using "economic rent" in the calculations.
e. Last Resort Housing Payment
There is an immediate lack of "comparable replacement housing" according to the attached housing
survey (Attachment 4), although throughout the duration of the project, an adequate number of
"comparable replacement housing" should be available. In addition, the Agency desires to offer the
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 16
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
residents the "tools" to upgrade their current living situations. Therefore, there is a need to provide
Last Resort Housing Payments. Section 6120 states that if comparable replacement housing is not
available to a relocatee (whether because of physical availability, condition, or affordability), the
Agency must either terminate the acquisition or provide comparable replacement housing (called
"last resort housing ") using the Agency's funds.
"Last Resort Housing" payments are authorized by statute if affordable "comparable replacement
housing" cannot be found for the displaced tenant households, i.e., housing not more than 30% of
the household's average monthly income. In this case, payments may be made beyond the $5,250
statutory cap up to 42 months worth of rental assistance. The supplemental increment beyond
$5,250 may be paid in installments or in a lump sum at the discretion of the displacing entity.
Mobile Home owner - occupants may also be eligible for "Last Resort Housing" payments, if low
income and/or comparable housing can not be found within the $22,500 cap. It will be the policy of
the Agency to make lump sum payments.
This type of situation is likely to develop among low- income families, or in environments
where Project area rents are particularly low v. rents elsewhere within the community.
A combination of factors - which would include, in relation, the income levels of project site
tenants; project site rents; and, a potentially high cost of replacement rent - will create the
need for last resort housing payments
J. PAYMENT OF RELOCATION BENEFITS
No household will be displaced until "comparable" housing is located as defined above and in
section 6008, subdivisions (c) and (d) of the Guidelines. Relocation staff will inspect any
replacement units to which referrals are made to verify that they meet all the standards of decent,
safe, and sanitary as defined in section 6008, subdivision (d) of the Guidelines. However, no
household will be denied benefits if it chooses to move to a replacement unit which does not meet
the standards of decent, safe, and sanitary housing.
Claims and supporting documentation for relocation benefits must be filed with the Agency within
eighteen (18) months from:
• The date the claimant moves from the acquired property; or,
• The date on which final payment for the acquisition of real property is made,
whichever is later.
The procedure for the preparation and filing of claims and the processing and delivery of payments
will be as follows:
PACIFIC RELOCAT ION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE I
d 4l+ IN •"n r% 1
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
1. Claimant(s) will provide all necessary documentation to substantiate
eligibility for assistance.
2. Assistance amounts will be determined in accordance with the provisions of
California Relocation Law.
3. Required claim forms will be prepared by relocation personnel in conjunction
with claimant(s). Signed claims and supporting documentation will be
submitted by relocation personnel to the Agency.
4. The Agency will review, and approve claims for payment, or request
additional information.
5. The Agency will issue benefit checks which will be available at Agency
offices for pick -up by Claimants, unless circumstances dictate otherwise.
6. Final payments will be issued after confirmation that the Project area
premises have been completely vacated, and actual residency at the
replacement unit is verified.
7. Receipts of payment will be obtained and maintained in the relocation case
file.
K. RELOCATION TAX CONSEQUENCES
In eg nerol, relocation payments are not considered income for the purpose of the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, or the Personal Income Tax Law, Part 10 of the Revenue and Taxation Code. The
above statement on tax consequences is not intended to be provision of tax advice by the Agency,
its Agents, Consultants or Assigns. Displacees are encouraged to consult with their own tax advisors
concerning the tax consequences of relocation payments.
L. APPEALS POLICY
The Agency's Grievance Policy will follow the standards described in Article 5, Section 6150 et seq.,
Title 25, Chapter 6, State of California, Department of Housing and Community Development
(H &CD) Program guidelines.
Briefly stated, displacees will have the right to ask for administrative review when there is a
complaint regarding any of its rights to relocation and relocation assistance, as to:
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRC) PAGE 18

RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
eligibility;
2. the amount of payment;
3. the failure to provide comparable replacement housing referrals; or,
4. the Agency's property management practices.
Requests for review will be directed first to the Executive Director of the Agency.
M. EVICTION POLICY
Under the State of California guidelines, eviction by the Agency is permissible only as a last
alternative. With the exception of persons considered to be in unlawful occupancy, a displaced
person's eviction does not affect eligibility for relocation assistance and benefits. Relocation records
must be documented to reflect the specific circumstances surrounding the eviction.
Eviction by the Agency may be undertaken only for one or more of the following reasons:
1. Failure to pay rent, except in those cases where the failure to pay is due to the lessor
Agency's failure to keep the premises in habitable condition; is the result of
harassment or retaliatory action; or is the result of discontinuation or substantial
interruption of services;
2. Performance of a dangerous, illegal act in the unit;
Material breach of the rental agreement and failure to correct breach within 30 days
of notice;
4. Maintenance of a nuisance, and failure to abate within a reasonable time following
notice;
5. Refusal to accept one of a reasonable number of offers of replacement dwellings;
6. A requirement under State or local law or emergency circumstances that cannot be
prevented by reasonable efforts on the part of the public entity.
N. PROJECTED DATES OF DISPLACEMENT
PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 19
RELOCATION PLAN - High Street
Households will receive a 365 day notice to vacate before they are required to move. These notices

PLEASE DO NOT MOVE PREMATURELY. THIS IS NOT A NOTICE TO VACATE YOUR
DWELLING. However, if you desire to move sooner than required, you must contact your
representative with Pacific Relocation Consultants so you will not jeopardize any benefits. This is a
general informational brochure only, and is not intended to give a detailed description of either the law
or regulations pertaining to the Agency's relocation assistance program.
Residential Informational Statement
II. ASSISTANCE IN LOCATING A REPLACEMENT DWELLING
I
The Agency, through its representatives, will assist you in locating a comparable replacement dwelling
by providing referrals to appropriate and available housing units. You are encouraged to actively seek
such housing yourself.
When a suitable replacement dwelling unit has been found, your relocation consultant will carry out an
inspection and advise you as to whether the dwelling unit meets decent, safe and sanitary housing
requirements. A decent, safe and sanitary housing unit provides adequate space for its occupants,
proper weatherproofing and sound heating, electrical and plumbing systems. Your new dwelling must
pass inspection before relocation assistance payments can be authorized.
I11. MOVING BENEFITS
If you must move as a result of displacement by the Agency, you will receive a payment to assist in
moving your personal property. There are two types of moving payments. You have the option of
selecting either one of the following types of moving payments:
A
Fixed Moving Payment
A Fixed Moving Payment is based upon the number of rooms you occupy and whether or not
you own your own furniture. The payment is based upon a schedule approved by the Agency,
and ranges, for example, from $325.00 for one furnished room to $1,750.00 for eight rooms in
an unfurnished dwelling. (For details see the table below). Your relocation representative will
inform you of the amount you are eligible to receive if you choose this type of payment.
Occupant owns furniture Occupant does NOT own furniture
1 room $575.00 1 room $375.00
2 rooms $750.00 each additional room $60.00
3 rooms $925.00
4 rooms $1,100.00
5 rooms $1,325.00
6 rooms $1,550.00
7 rooms $1,775.00
8 rooms $2,000.00
each additional room $200.00
If you select a fixed payment, you will be responsible for arranging for your own move and the
Agency will assume no liability for any loss or damage of your personal property.
Residential Informational Statement
B. Actual Moving Expense (Professional Move)
If you wish to engage the services of a licensed commercial mover and have the Agency pay
the bill, you may claim the ACTUAL cost of moving your personal property up to 50 miles. Your
relocation representative will inform you of the number of competitive moving bids (if any) which
may be required, and assist you in developing a scope of services for Agency approval.
IV. REPLACEMENT HOUSING PAYMENT - TENANTS AND CERTAIN OTHERS
You may be eligible for a payment of up to $5,250.00 to assist you in renting or purchasing a
comparable replacement dwelling. In order to qualify, you must either be a tenant who has occupied
your present dwelling for a least 90 days prior to the Agency's first offer to purchase the property or an
owner who has occupied your dwelling for between 90 and 180 days prior to the Agency's first offer to
purchase the property.
A. Rental Assistance. If you qualify, and wish to rent your replacement dwelling, your rental
assistance benefits will be based upon the difference over a forty-two (42) month period
between the rent you must pay for a comparable replacement dwelling and the lesser of your
current rent or thirty percent (30 %) of your gross monthly household income. You will be
required to provide your relocation representative with monthly rent and household income
verification prior to the determination of your eligibility for this payment.
OR
Down - payment Assistance. If you qualify, and wish to purchase a home as a replacement
dwelling, you can apply up to the total amount of your rental assistance payment towards the
down - payment and non - recurring incidental expenses. Your relocation representative will clarify
procedures necessary to apply for this payment.
V. REPLACEMENT HOUSING PAYMENT - HOMEOWNERS
A. If you owned and occupied a dwelling purchased by the Agency for at least 180 days prior to
the first offer to purchase, you may be eligible to receive a payment of up to $22,500.00 to assist
you in purchasing a comparable replacement unit. If you owned and occupied the displacement
dwelling for at least 90 days but not more than 180 days immediately prior to the date of the
Agency's offer to purchase, you may be eligible for a payment of up to $5,250.00. This
payment is intended to cover the following items:
1. Purchase Price Differential - An amount which, when added to the amount for which
the Agency purchased your property, equals the lesser of the actual cost of your
replacement dwelling; or the amount determined by the Agency as necessary to
purchase a comparable replacement dwelling. Your relocation representative will
explain both methods to you.
2. Mortgage Interest Differential -The amountwhich covers the increased interestcosts,
if any, required to finance a replacement dwelling. Your relocation representative will
explain limiting conditions.
Residential Informational Statement
3. Incidental Expenses - Those one time costs incidental to purchasing a replacement
unit, such as escrow fees, recording fees, and credit report fees. Recurring expenses
such as prepaid taxes and insurance premiums are not compensable.
B. Rental Assistance Option - If you are an owner - occupant and choose to rent rather than
purchase a replacement dwelling, you may be eligible for a rental assistance payment of up to
$5,250.00. The payment will be based on the difference between the fair market rent of the
dwelling you occupy and the rent you must pay for a comparable replacement dwelling.
If you receive a rental assistance payment, as described above, and later decide to purchase
a replacement dwelling, you may apply for a payment equal to the amount you would have
received if you had initially purchased a comparable replacement dwelling, less the amount you
have already received as a rental assistance payment.
VI. QUALIFICATION FOR AND FILING OF RELOCATION CLAIMS
To qualify for a Replacement Housing Payment, you must rent or purchase and occupy a comparable
replacement unit within one year from the later of the following:
For a tenant, the date you move from the displacement dwelling
2. For an owner - occupant, the date you receive final payment for the displacement
dwelling, or, in the case of condemnation, the date the full amount of estimated just
compensation is deposited in court, or
3. The date the Agency fulfills its obligation to make available comparable replacement
dwellings.
All claims for relocation benefits must be filed with the Agency within eighteen (18) months from the
date on which you receive final payment for your property, or the date on which you move, whichever
is later.
VII. LAST RESORT HOUSING ASSISTANCE
If comparable replacement dwellings are not available when you are required to move, or if replacement
housing is not available within the monetary limits described above, the Agency will provide Last Resort
housing assistance to enable you to rent or purchase a replacement dwelling on a timely basis. Last
Resort housing assistance is based on the individual circumstances of the displaced person. Your
relocation representative will explain the process for determining whether or not you qualify for Last
Resort assistance.
If you are a tenant, and you choose to purchase rather than rent a comparable replacement dwelling,
the entire amount of your rental assistance and last resort eligibility must be applied toward the down -
payment of the home you intend to purchase.
Residential Informational Statement

property or an owner who has occupied your dwelling for between 90 and 180 days prior to the
Agency's first offer to purchase the property.
A. Rental Assistance. If you qualify, and wish to rent your replacement dwelling, your rental
assistance benefits will be based upon the difference over a forty -two (42) month period
between the rent you must pay for a comparable replacement dwelling and the lesser of
your current rent or thirty percent (30 %) of your gross monthly household income. You will
be required to provide your relocation representative with monthly rent and household
income verification prior to the determination of your eligibility for this payment.

replacement housing is not available within the monetary limits described above, the Agency will
provide Last Resort housing assistance to enable you to rent or purchase a replacement dwelling
on a timely basis. Last Resort housing assistance is based on the individual circumstances of the
displaced person. Your relocation representative will explain the process for determining whether
or not you qualify for Last Resort assistance.

Dear Resident:
Pacific Relocation Consultants and the Moorpark Redevelopment Agency would like to
update you on the status of your relocation.
Recently, PRC has completed a personal interview with you and the other residents of the
park. They have now begun searching for and identifying "comparable" alternative housing
for you and your family. With this information, they will be preparing a Relocation Plan,
that will be submitted to both the Redevelopment Agency and you for review and comment.
This draft Relocation Plan will be available for your review in about ninety days.
The purpose of this Plan is to ensure that the proper guidelines are in place to meet your
needs. As this Plan is being developed, PRC and the Redevelopment Agency will begin to
have a better understanding of the current market conditions and the corresponding
assistance that you will be entitled to. Please be patient during this process, although we still
encourage you to look for possible alternative homes at this time.
Please remember that you can use your benefits to not only purchase another mobile home,
but can also use the funds for a down payment on a conventional home, townhome, or
condominium.
Currently, a limited number of one, two, and three bedroom new apartments are available
at affordable rents at the new Archstone Moorpark apartment complex, located at 4767
Moorpark Avenue. These apartments are intended for limited income residents, and are
offered at reduced rates, to those who qualify. The apartments can be configured for
handicapped use, if necessary. For those families that are currently renting, or are interested
in renting, please take a look at these apartments as soon as possible, since we will need to
know if you are interested by November 15, 2001, and these apartments are available on a
first come, first served basis.
If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call Adelina McCloud or David J.
Richman at 800. 400. 7356.
Sincerely,
David I.- Richman

SUMMARY OF RESIDENTIAL RELOCATION BENEFITS
(Pursuant to California Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Guidelines)
As an eligible displaced Mobilehome Owner or non -owner occupant (Tenant), you will
be offered appropriate advisory and financial assistance to help you relocate, including:
Referrals to suitable replacement dwellings.
II. Payment for your moving expenses and replacement housing.
III. Other help to reestablish your household and minimize the impact of the move,
including help in preparing claim forms for relocation payments.
Replacement Housing Payments for Mobilehome Owners:
At the Agency's discretion, Mobilehome Owners may be offered the option of selling
their coach, at fair market value, or relocating the coach to another park or area (if the
coach can be relocated). The cost of moving the coach to another area will then be
included in the Actual Moving Expense Payment.
Those electing to sell their coach to the Agency will be offered a Replacement
Housing Payment equal to the differential cost to purchase a comparable replacement
mobilehome and the purchase price paid by the Agency for their existing coach. In
addition to the purchase differential, the Mobilehome Owner may receive an amount
that will compensate them for an increase in mortgage interests costs (if any) and one-
time incidental closing costs.
Rental Assistance Payments for Tenants and Mobilehome Owner Occupants:
The Rental Assistance Payment for a non -owner occupant (Tenant) is based on the
difference between the lesser of present rent or 30% of gross monthly family income
compared to the space rent the tenant must pay at a comparable park. The difference
is multiplied by 42 months. After an initial payment, tenants may receive the balance
of the funds in periodic payments over 42 months. Tenants may apply their rental
assistance payment as a down payment toward the purchase of a replacement
dwelling.
For Mobilehome Owners, the Rental Assistance Payment is based on the difference
between the pad rent at the old location versus the pad rent at a comparable
mobilehome park multiplied by 42 months. This is paid in addition to the
Replacement Housing Payment.
Moving Expense Payments for Mobilehome Owners and Tenants:
Two types of payments are available:
♦ FIXED MOVING PAYMENT, or
♦ Reimbursement for ACTUAL MOVING EXPENSES.
A Fixed Moving Payment is paid to displacees choosing to move themselves and is
based on the actual number of rooms of furniture or personal property to be moved
and whether or not the furnishings are owned by the displacee.
The Actual Moving Expense Payment is the actual cost of moving furnishings and
personal property by a professional mover up to 50 miles; these expenses may include
storage for up to twelve months at the discretion of the Agency. There is no dollar
limit, but the payment is based on the lower of two bonafide moving bids. The Actual
Moving Payment may also include utility hook -up charges.
With the Agency's consent, Mobilehome Owners electing to move their coach, rather
than selling to the Agency, will be reimbursed for the actual costs associated with
moving the coach and set -up at a new mobilehome park or area within 50 miles.

Dear FIELD(Tenant Name):
The Moorpark Redevelopment Agency (the "Agency ") made an offer to purchase the property which
you currently occupy. As the eligible owner- occupant of the property, you may be entitled to certain
benefits under the Agency's Relocation Assistance Program. These benefitsare briefly outlined below
and are discussed in further detail in the Informational Statement which was previously provided to
you.
You will have also be given a written notice of at least 365 days and a 90 Day Notice, which will
run concurrently, before you will be required to move from your property. As the occupant of
the property on the date of the first written offer, you are entitled to:
1. RELOCATION ADVISORY ASSISTANCE provided by Pacific Relocation Consultants,
a firm hired by the Agency to provide relocation assistance to you.
2. MOVING EXPENSES. You may select either one of following payments:
A. A Fixed Moving Payment based on the number of rooms you occupy (from
Informational Statement). Your entitlement under this option is FIELD(fmp) ; OR
B. A payment for your Actual Reasonable Moving and Related Expenses based on at
least two written estimates and receipted bills.
3. REPLACEMENT HOUSING PAYMENT. If you owned and occupied the property for
180 or more consecutive days immediately preceding the Agency's first offer, you may be
eligible for financial assistance to purchase or rent comparable replacement housing. To
receive such payments, you must purchase or rent and occupy your replacement dwelling
within one (1) year from the later of the following dates: 1) the date the first replacement
dwelling referral has been made available to you, or 2) the date the Agency has paid the
Acquisition cost of your current dwelling (usually the close of escrow on the Agency's
Acquisition). Failure to act within the one (1) year period could result in loss of all
replacement housing benefits. This assistance is composed of the following replacement
housing benefits:
A. If you BUY replacement housing, you may file a claim for:
NOTICE OF ELIGIBILITY PAGE 1 OF 4
NOTICE OF ELIGIBILITY
• A PURCHASE PRICE DIFFERENTIAL. This is to cover the increased cost
you may have to pay when you buy a new home. It is the difference between
the cost of a comparable replacement dwelling (as determined by the
Agency) or, if less, the cost of the replacement dwelling you purchase, and
the price paid by the Agency for your present home. Based on the cost of a
comparable dwelling established by the scheduled in the Relocation Plan.
The estimated of the amount of the purchase price differential is as follows:
1 List Price for Comparable Dwelling FI'E'LD(list price
2 Offer Price for Your Current Dwelling FIELD(offer
price)
3 Purchase Price Differential (Line 1 minus Line 2) $0.00
• AN INTEREST DIFFERENTIAL. To help pay your increased interest cost,
if any, of your new mortgage.
• NON - RECURRING INCIDENTAL COSTS to cover some of the closing
costs you may incur in purchasing a replacement dwelling.
If you PURCHASE replacement housing, you may also file a claim for
• A RENTAL ASSISTANCE PAYMENT, based upon space rental.The
payment will equal the difference between the lesser of 1) the monthly rent
for a comparable replacement dwelling as determined by the Agency, or 2)
the actual monthly rent ofyour replacement dwelling AND the base monthly
rent during the three months immediately prior to vacation from the
displacement dwelling, multiplied times 42 months. Base monthly rent is
defined as the lesser of 1) the average monthly rent at the displacement
dwelling, or 2) thirty (3 0) percent of your gross monthly household income,
or 3) if you are receiving a welfare assistance payment, the portion of such
payment that is specifically designated for shelter and utilities. If you are
paying little or no rent for the Agency acquired dwelling, the Rental
Assistance payment will be based on "economic rent ", that is rent typically
charged for a comparable unit in your area.
Failure to supply adequate income information may result in a delay or denial of
benefits based on income. Rental assistance benefits are paid in a single payment.
Based on the information you provided and the comparable dwelling as listed below,
your estimated rental assistance payment calculation is as follows:

B. If you RENT replacement housing, you may file a claim for:
• A RENTAL ASSISTANCE PAYMENT. If you think you may wish to rent
instead of purchase a replacement property, contact your relocation advisor
for a calculation of this optional benefit.
Listed below are "comparable replacement homes" that you may wish to consider buying:

Based on the cost of the comparable dwellings and the Agency offer for your present home, you may
be eligible for a Purchase Price Differential payment up to the amount as calculated in the table
above. If you decide to purchase a replacement dwelling that costs less than the comparable dwelling,
your Purchase Price Differential would be based on the actual purchase price of your replacement
dwelling. If you decide to purchase a replacement dwelling that costs more than the comparable
dwelling, your Purchase Price Differential would still be based on the comparable dwelling price.
If the Amount the Agency pays for your present dwelling is increased, your Purchase Price
Differential would be decreased accordingly.
You do not have to accept any dwelling referred to you by the Agency. You may choose your own
replacement, but it must be "decent, safe and sanitary" to qualify for replacement housing payments.
Before a relocation payment can be issued to you, your replacement dwelling must be inspected to
assure that it meets "decent, safe and sanitary" standards. For this reason, DO NOT MOVE from
your home and DO NOT CONTRACT to rent or purchase a replacement dwelling without first
contacting your relocation consultant.
NOTICE OF ELIGIBILITY
PAGE 3 OF 4
If you remain in occupancy of your present dwelling after the Agency has completed the purchase,
you must pay fair market rent to the Agency for the period of your tenancy. Failure to pay rent may
reduce the replacement housing payment which you are eligible to receive.
The Relocation Assistance Program is very complex. It is important that you read and understand the
matters explained in the Informational Statement which was given to you. If at any time in the future
you want assistance, please contact Adelina Mc Cloud of Pacific Relocation Consultants, 100
West Broadway, Suite 300, Long Beach, CA 90802 -4432, telephone (562)590 -8564 or (800)400-
