ESTIMATED RELOCATION COSTS ............................... 20 TABLE OF ATTACHMENTS 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. As a 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 (3 1) 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 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 1: Regional Project Location PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE I 41'. 41N. '°) RELOCATION PLAN - High Street 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. PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 2 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 (2 1) 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'.

PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRC) PAGE 4 RELOCATION PLAN - High Street 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. Table 2. Income levels of Residential Households (Respondents),,,,. Very Low Low Median Moderate 18 6 5 - The neighborhood is located near to the downtown civic area and is made up of a mix of single - family residential and commercial uses. 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. PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 5 RELOCATION PLAN - High Street B. REPLACEMENT HOUSING RESOURCES A resource survey was made on or about the first two weeks of November 2001 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 e) IV ,- 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. Government Code 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. 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 PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 7 C 4 a. RELOCATION PLAN - High Street 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 Government Code 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 chance, 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: (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 PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 8 4-1 . -�'W -,i v v y ..rip/ RELOCATION PLAN - High Street 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.

Upon completion of all reviews, the Plan will be presented for adoption by the Agency. I. RELOCATION BENEFIT CATEGORIES Relocation benefits will be provided in accordance with the provisions of the State of California Relocation Law, Government Code Section 7260 et. seq., Title 25, Chapter 6, Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Guidelines, and the Agency's own rules and regulations pertaining thereto. Benefits will be paid to eligible displaced persons upon submission of required claim forms 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. PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 11 RELOCATION PLAN - High Street 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: "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 Payme - 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 Administration schedules maintained by the California Department of Transportation ( See Fixed Payment Moving Schedule — Attachment 9). 1' 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. PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 12 RELOCATION PLAN - High Street 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, consistent with Section 6104 of the Guidelines. 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 3., following, shows how monthly need is determined.

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 of the Guidelines 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 down payment 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 of the Guidelines 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. With the wide disparity in pricing of Mobile Homes, and the Agency's desire to encourage residents PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 15 —9 RELOCATION PLAN - High Street to upgrade their living situation, the "Schedule Method" will be used. Since the relocation process will span an approximate 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 : Unit Size Replacement housing payment 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 Unit Size Comparable Rent Mobile Home $ 525.00 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 residents the "tools" to upgrade their current living situations. Therefore, there is a need to provide Last Resort Housing Payments. Section 6120 of the Guidelines states that if comparable replacement PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 16 RELOCATION PLAN - High Street 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, as required for Down Payment Assistance. Rental Assistance Payment provided as a lump sum improves ease of administration. 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 potentiallX 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: 1. Claimant(s) will provide all necessary documentation to substantiate PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 17 RELOCATION PLAN - High Street 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 neral, 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: 1. eligibility; PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRC) PAGE 18 V' �' 4 �•OI�dI RELOCATION PLAN - High Street 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: 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; 3. 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; 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. PACIFIC RELOCATION CONSULTANTS (PRQ PAGE 19 RELOCATION PLAN - High Street N. PROJECTED DATES OF DISPLACEMENT Households will receive a 365 day notice to vacate before they are required to move. These notices are expected to be issued on or about April 2, 2002. In addition, both a ninety- day and thirty-day notice will be issued at the appropriate time during the 365 day period. Relocation is expected to be completed for all households on or about April 2003. O. ESTIMATED RELOCATION COSTS The displacing entity anticipates using Agency funds for the Project. The Agency pledges to appropriate the necessary funds, on a timely basis, to ensure the successful completion of the project. Any and all required financial assistance will be provided.

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. VII. RENTAL AGREEMENT As a result of the Agency's action to purchase the property where you live, you may become a tenant of the Agency. If this occurs, you will be asked to sign a rental agreement which will specify the monthly rent to be paid, when rent payments are due, where they are to be paid and other pertinent information. Except for the causes of eviction set forth below, no person lawfully occupying property to be purchased by the Agency will be required to move without having been provided with at least 90 days written notice from the Agency. Eviction will be undertaken only in the event of one or more of the following infractions: A. Failure to pay rent; except in those cases where the failure to pay is due to the lessor'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; B. Performance of dangerous illegal act in the unit; C. Material breach of the rental agreement and failure to correct breach within 30 days of notice; D. Maintenance of a nuisance and failure to abate within a reasonable time following notice; E. Refusal to accept one of a reasonable number of offers of replacement dwellings; or F. The eviction is required by State or local law and cannot be prevented by reasonable efforts on the part of the public entity. Residential Informational Statement —. -0 " ,n `✓ 11 11 . 0 VIII.
