Such individuals are widely considered to be among the most vulnerable in a <br />community and may need an enhanced level of services and financial assistance in <br />connection with a relocation process. <br />Population and Housing Tenure <br />Because of the low response to interview requests, OPC was not able to gather the data <br />necessary through its interview process to estimate the total Tenant population at <br />Docktown and whether they owned or rented their Dwelling. It was noted through the data <br />collection process that there are long-term Tenants who reside at Docktown as their <br />Primary Residence; however, there are also Tenants who lease boats to other persons <br />as a source of income. No Tenants at Docktown enjoy long-term possessory interests in <br />their berths under an existing long-term Lease with the City; all Leases may be terminated <br />with 60-days' notice to the Tenants. OPC estimates that there are 60 Owner-occupancies <br />and five Sub-tenant occupancies of Dwelling at Docktown. <br />Age and Needs of Households <br />OPC was not able to gather the data necessary through its interview process to determine <br />the range of ages, median age, and number of Seniors, Disabled Persons, Veterans, and <br />other special needs populations. However, it was noted through the data collection <br />process that Docktown Households include individuals who are members of these <br />populations.
