This Chapter shall be known and may be cited as the "Relocation Assistance <br />Ordinance." <br />B. The requirements established pursuant to this Chapter are adopted under the <br />authority of California Constitution Article XI, Section 7, which provides: "A county <br />or city may make and enforce within its limits all local, police, sanitary, and other <br />ordinances and regulations not in conflict with general laws," and in accordance <br />with the purpose set forth in the ordinance codified in this Chapter. <br />C. This Chapter shall apply to the extent permitted by the statutes and laws of the <br />State of California. <br />42.2 Purpose <br />The primary purpose for relocation assistance is to minimize disruption to tenants and <br />their families caused by a need for relocation by addressing financial impacts. Securing <br />replacement housing generally requires a significant amount of money for expenses <br />related to a physical move, such as first and last month's rent and security deposits. <br />Projects assisted with Federal and State funds are subject to requirements to provide <br />relocation assistance to households displaced by those projects. There is currently no <br />state mandate for landlords to assist displaced tenants by compensating for relocation <br />costs. While an unanticipated move may be challenging for any tenant, it is especially <br />difficult for extremely low, very low and low income households. <br />ATTY/ORD.456/RC RELOCATION ASSISTANCE <br />REV: 07-09-18 PR <br />Page 2 of 9 <br />
