ATTY/ORD.456/RC RELOCATION ASSISTANCE <br />REV: 06-12-18 PR <br /> Page 3 of 10 <br />expenses related to a physical move, such as first and last month’s rent and security <br />deposits. Projects assisted with Federal and State funds are subject to requirements to <br />provide relocation assistance to households displaced by those projects. There is <br />currently no state mandate for landlords to assist displaced tenants by compensating for <br />relocation costs. While an unanticipated move may be challenging for any tenant, it is <br />especially difficult for extremely low, very low and low income households. <br />[Text to be deleted is shown in strikethrough format for convenience and is not for <br />codification] <br /> <br />42.3 Definitions <br />The following words and terms as used in this Chapter shall have the meaning <br />respectively ascribed thereto: <br />A.
