Relocation Assistance <br />Rationale and Approach Recommended <br />June 26, 2017 Redwood City — City Council Meeting 7 <br />•Low Income Households. 3 months’ rent helps low income tenants with <br />first and last month’s rent and a security deposit for securing a <br />replacement unit. <br />•Smaller Rental Properties. Avoid impacting “Mom and Pop” landlords <br />(exempt properties with 4 units or less). <br />•Potential Deterrent to Displacement. While not directly a strategy to <br />reduce potential displacement of tenants, since the payment is made after <br />eviction occurs, the amount of the relocation assistance and any other <br />requirements for the landlord can act as a deterrent to displacement. <br />•Relocate Nearby. Provide an opportunity for lower income households to <br />find alternative housing nearby.
