(c) The director of the housing authority shall notify the tenant, in writing, when the balance in such account equals seventy-five per cent of the amount specified by the tenant in the notice to the authority under subsection (b) of this section. The authority shall also provide written notice to the tenant when the balance equals such specified amount. No deposit shall be made by the authority into a tenant escrow account in excess of such specified amount. The director shall annually provide the tenant with a report stating the balance in the account.

(d) After receipt of notice that the balance in the account equals the specified amount, the tenant shall have one hundred eighty days to vacate the unit in the housing project. If the tenant fails to vacate, the funds in the account shall revert to the housing authority. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section to the contrary, the director shall extend the time period to vacate if additional time is needed for the tenant to find other housing or for other good cause.

(e) Prior to vacating his dwelling unit, the tenant shall submit to the director documentation satisfactory to the director that the funds in the account shall be used for rental of a private dwelling unit or for a down payment on a house. The director shall remit the funds in the escrow account to the tenant upon receipt of such documentation.
