Conditions in the current rental market have created a relocation crisis, because
tenants, especially low-income tenants, do not have sufficient time to save money
for relocation costs or to find comparable housing when they are evicted as a result
of demolition, change of use, substantial rehabilitation, or removal of rent or income
restrictions from their dwelling units.

B.

Purpose. Based upon the above findings, the purpose of this Chapter 22.210 is to provide relocation assistance to low-income tenants displaced by demolition,
substantial rehabilitation, or change of use of residential rental property, or the
removal of rent or income restrictions from housing developments.
