Article 9. Relocation Of Persons Displaced By Projects of California Health And Safety Code >> Division 24. >> Part 1. >> Chapter 4. >> Article 9.
A redevelopment agency may, in order to facilitate the
rehousing of families and single persons who are displaced from their
homes in a project area, utilize the aids made available through
federal urban renewal, redevelopment and housing legislation and may
use funds derived from any public or private source to carry out the
purposes of this section.
The agency shall prepare a feasible method or plan for
relocation of all of the following:
(a) Families and persons to be temporarily or permanently displaced from housing facilities in the project area.
(b) Nonprofit local community institutions to be temporarily or permanently displaced from facilities actually used for institutional purposes in the project area.
(a) Families and persons to be temporarily or permanently displaced from housing facilities in the project area.
(b) Nonprofit local community institutions to be temporarily or permanently displaced from facilities actually used for institutional purposes in the project area.
The legislative body shall insure that such method or plan
of the agency for the relocation of families or single persons to be
displaced by a project shall provide that no persons or families of
low and moderate income shall be displaced unless and until there is
a suitable housing unit available and ready for occupancy by such
displaced person or family at rents comparable to those at the time
of their displacement. Such housing units shall be suitable to the
needs of such displaced persons or families and must be decent, safe,
sanitary, and otherwise standard dwelling. The agency shall not
displace such person or family until such housing units are available
and ready for occupancy.
As used in this article:
(a) "Affordable housing cost" has the same meaning as specified in Section 50052.5.
(b) "Persons and families of low or moderate income" has the same meaning as specified in Section 50093.
(c) "Replacement dwelling unit" means a dwelling unit developed or constructed pursuant to Section 33413 in replacement of a dwelling unit destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate-income housing market by an agency and which is decent, safe, and sanitary and contains at least the same number of bedrooms and other living areas as the dwelling unit destroyed or removed by the agency.
(d) "Very low income households" has the same meaning as specified in Section 50105.
(a) "Affordable housing cost" has the same meaning as specified in Section 50052.5.
(b) "Persons and families of low or moderate income" has the same meaning as specified in Section 50093.
(c) "Replacement dwelling unit" means a dwelling unit developed or constructed pursuant to Section 33413 in replacement of a dwelling unit destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate-income housing market by an agency and which is decent, safe, and sanitary and contains at least the same number of bedrooms and other living areas as the dwelling unit destroyed or removed by the agency.
(d) "Very low income households" has the same meaning as specified in Section 50105.
Whenever all or any portion of a redevelopment project is
developed with low- or moderate-income housing units and whenever any
low- or moderate-income housing units are developed with any agency
assistance or pursuant to Section 33413, the agency shall require by
contract or other appropriate means that the housing be made
available for rent or purchase to the persons and families of low or
moderate income displaced by the redevelopment project. Those persons
and families shall be given priority in renting or buying that
housing. However, failure to give that priority shall not affect the
validity of title to real property. The agency shall keep a list of
persons and families of low and moderate income displaced by the
redevelopment project who are to be given priority, and may establish
reasonable rules for determining the order or priority on the list.
If insufficient suitable housing units are available in
the community for low- and moderate-income persons and families to be
displaced from a redevelopment project area, the legislative body
shall assure that sufficient land be made available for suitable
housing for rental or purchase by low- and moderate-income persons
and families. If insufficient suitable housing units are available in
the community for use by such persons and families of low and
moderate income displaced by the redevelopment project, the
redevelopment agency may, to the extent of that deficiency, direct or
cause the development, rehabilitation or construction of housing
units within the community, both inside and outside of redevelopment
project areas.
Permanent housing facilities shall be made available within
three years from the time occupants are displaced and that pending
the development of such facilities there will be available to such
displaced occupants adequate temporary housing facilities at rents
comparable to those in the community at the time of their
displacement.
(a) Whenever dwelling units housing persons and families of
low or moderate income are destroyed or removed from the low- and
moderate-income housing market as part of a redevelopment project
that is subject to a written agreement with the agency or where
financial assistance has been provided by the agency, the agency
shall, within four years of the destruction or removal, rehabilitate,
develop, or construct, or cause to be rehabilitated, developed, or
constructed, for rental or sale to persons and families of low or
moderate income, an equal number of replacement dwelling units that
have an equal or greater number of bedrooms as those destroyed or
removed units at affordable housing costs within the territorial
jurisdiction of the agency. When dwelling units are destroyed or
removed after September 1, 1989, 75 percent of the replacement
dwelling units shall replace dwelling units available at affordable
housing cost in the same or a lower income level of very low income
households, lower income households, and persons and families of low
and moderate income, as the persons displaced from those destroyed or
removed units. When dwelling units are destroyed or removed on or
after January 1, 2002, 100 percent of the replacement dwelling units
shall be available at affordable housing cost to persons in the same
or a lower income category (low, very low, or moderate), as the
persons displaced from those destroyed or removed units.
(b) (1) Prior to the time limit on the effectiveness of the redevelopment plan established pursuant to Sections 33333.2, 33333.6, and 33333.10 at least 30 percent of all new and substantially rehabilitated dwelling units developed by an agency shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income. Not less than 50 percent of the dwelling units required to be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, very low income households.
(2) (A) (i) Prior to the time limit on the effectiveness of the redevelopment plan established pursuant to Sections 33333.2, 33333.6, and 33333.10 at least 15 percent of all new and substantially rehabilitated dwelling units developed within a project area under the jurisdiction of an agency by public or private entities or persons other than the agency shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income. Not less than 40 percent of the dwelling units required to be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, very low income households.
(ii) To satisfy this paragraph, in whole or in part, the agency may cause, by regulation or agreement, to be available, at affordable housing cost, to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income or to very low income households, as applicable, two units outside a project area for each unit that otherwise would have been required to be available inside a project area.
(iii) On or after January 1, 2002, as used in this paragraph and in paragraph (1), "substantially rehabilitated dwelling units" means all units substantially rehabilitated, with agency assistance. Prior to January 1, 2002, "substantially rehabilitated dwelling units" shall mean substantially rehabilitated multifamily rented dwelling units with three or more units regardless of whether there is agency assistance, or substantially rehabilitated, with agency assistance, single-family dwelling units with one or two units.
(iv) As used in this paragraph and in paragraph (1), "substantial rehabilitation" means rehabilitation, the value of which constitutes 25 percent of the after rehabilitation value of the dwelling, inclusive of the land value.
(v) To satisfy this paragraph, the agency may aggregate new or substantially rehabilitated dwelling units in one or more project areas, if the agency finds, based on substantial evidence, after a public hearing, that the aggregation will not cause or exacerbate racial, ethnic, or economic segregation.
(B) To satisfy the requirements of paragraph (1) and subparagraph (A), the agency may purchase, or otherwise acquire or cause by regulation or agreement the purchase or other acquisition of, long-term affordability covenants on multifamily units that restrict the cost of renting or purchasing those units that either: (i) are not presently available at affordable housing cost to persons and families of low or very low income households, as applicable; or (ii) are units that are presently available at affordable housing cost to this same group of persons or families, but are units that the agency finds, based upon substantial evidence, after a public hearing, cannot reasonably be expected to remain affordable to this same group of persons or families.
(C) To satisfy the requirements of paragraph (1) and subparagraph (A), the long-term affordability covenants purchased or otherwise acquired pursuant to subparagraph (B) shall be required to be maintained on dwelling units at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or very low income, for the longest feasible time but not less than 55 years for rental units and 45 years for owner-occupied units. Not more than 50 percent of the units made available pursuant to paragraph (1) and subparagraph (A) may be assisted through the purchase or acquisition of long-term affordability covenants pursuant to subparagraph (B). Not less than 50 percent of the units made available through the purchase or acquisition of long-term affordability covenants pursuant to subparagraph (B) shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, very low income households.
(D) To satisfy the requirements of paragraph (1) and subparagraph (A), each mutual self-help housing unit, as defined in subparagraph (C) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (f) of Section 33334.3, that is subject to a 15-year deed restriction shall count as one-third of a unit.
(3) The requirements of this subdivision shall apply independently of the requirements of subdivision (a). The requirements of this subdivision shall apply, in the aggregate, to housing made available pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2), respectively, and not to each individual case of rehabilitation, development, or construction of dwelling units, unless an agency determines otherwise.
(4) Each redevelopment agency, as part of the implementation plan required by Section 33490, shall adopt a plan to comply with the requirements of this subdivision for each project area. The plan shall be consistent with, and may be included within, the community's housing element. The plan shall be reviewed and, if necessary, amended at least every five years in conjunction with either the housing element cycle or the plan implementation cycle. The plan shall ensure that the requirements of this subdivision are met every 10 years. If the requirements of this subdivision are not met by the end of each 10-year period, the agency shall meet these goals on an annual basis until the requirements for the 10-year period are met. If the agency has exceeded the requirements within the 10-year period, the agency may count the units that exceed the requirement in order to meet the requirements during the next 10-year period. The plan shall contain the contents required by paragraphs (2), (3), and (4) of subdivision (a) of Section 33490.
(c) (1) The agency shall require that the aggregate number of replacement dwelling units and other dwelling units rehabilitated, developed, constructed, or price restricted pursuant to subdivision (a) or (b) remain available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low-income, moderate-income, and very low income households, respectively, for the longest feasible time, but for not less than 55 years for rental units, 45 years for home ownership units, and 15 years for mutual self-help housing units, as defined in subparagraph (C) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (f) of Section 33334.3, except as set forth in paragraph (2). Nothing in this paragraph precludes the agency and the developer of the mutual self-help housing units from agreeing to 45-year deed restrictions.
(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), the agency may permit sales of owner-occupied units prior to the expiration of the 45-year period, and mutual self-help housing units prior to the expiration of the 15-year period, established by the agency for a price in excess of that otherwise permitted under this subdivision pursuant to an adopted program that protects the agency's investment of moneys from the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund, including, but not limited to, an equity sharing program that establishes a schedule of equity sharing that permits retention by the seller of a portion of those excess proceeds, based on the length of occupancy. The remainder of the excess proceeds of the sale shall be allocated to the agency, and deposited into the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund. The agency shall, within three years from the date of sale pursuant to this paragraph of each home ownership or mutual self-help housing unit subject to a 45-year deed restriction, and every third mutual self-help housing unit subject to a 15-year deed restriction, expend funds to make affordable an equal number of units at the same or lowest income level as the unit or units sold pursuant to this paragraph, for a period not less than the duration of the original deed restrictions. Only the units originally assisted by the agency shall be counted towards the agency's obligations under Section 33413.
(3) The requirements of this section shall be made enforceable in the same manner as provided in paragraph (7) of subdivision (f) of Section 33334.3.
(4) If land on which the dwelling units required by this section are located is deleted from the project area, the agency shall continue to require that those units remain affordable as specified in this subdivision.
(5) For each unit counted towards the requirements of subdivisions (a) and (b), the agency shall require the recording in the office of the county recorder of covenants or restrictions that ensure compliance with this subdivision. With respect to covenants or restrictions that are recorded on or after January 1, 2008, the agency shall comply with the requirements of paragraphs (3) and (4) of subdivision (f) of Section 33334.3.
(d) (1) This section applies only to redevelopment projects for which a final redevelopment plan is adopted pursuant to Article 5 (commencing with Section 33360) on or after January 1, 1976, and to areas that are added to a project area by amendment to a final redevelopment plan adopted on or after January 1, 1976. In addition, subdivision (a) shall apply to any other redevelopment project with respect to dwelling units destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate-income housing market on or after January 1, 1996, irrespective of the date of adoption of a final redevelopment plan or an amendment to a final redevelopment plan adding areas to a project area. Additionally, any agency may, by resolution, elect to make all or part of the requirements of this section applicable to any redevelopment project of the agency for which the final redevelopment plan was adopted prior to January 1, 1976. In addition, subdivision (b) shall apply to redevelopment plans adopted prior to January 1, 1976, for which an amendment is adopted pursuant to Section 33333.10, except that subdivision (b) shall apply to those redevelopment plans prospectively only so that the requirements of subdivision (b) shall apply only to new and substantially rehabilitated dwelling units for which the building permits are issued on or after the date that the ordinance adopting the amendment pursuant to Section 33333.10 becomes effective.
(2) An agency may, by resolution, elect to require that whenever dwelling units housing persons or families of low or moderate income are destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate-income housing market as part of a redevelopment project, the agency shall replace each dwelling unit with up to three replacement dwelling units pursuant to subdivision (a).
(e) Except as otherwise authorized by law, this section does not authorize an agency to operate a rental housing development beyond the period reasonably necessary to sell or lease the housing development.
(f) Notwithstanding subdivision (a), the agency may replace destroyed or removed dwelling units with a fewer number of replacement dwelling units if the replacement dwelling units meet both of the following criteria:
(1) The total number of bedrooms in the replacement dwelling units equals or exceeds the number of bedrooms in the destroyed or removed units. Destroyed or removed units having one or no bedroom are deemed for this purpose to have one bedroom.
(2) The replacement units are affordable to and occupied by the same income level of households as the destroyed or removed units.
(g) "Longest feasible time," as used in this section, includes, but is not limited to, unlimited duration.
(b) (1) Prior to the time limit on the effectiveness of the redevelopment plan established pursuant to Sections 33333.2, 33333.6, and 33333.10 at least 30 percent of all new and substantially rehabilitated dwelling units developed by an agency shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income. Not less than 50 percent of the dwelling units required to be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, very low income households.
(2) (A) (i) Prior to the time limit on the effectiveness of the redevelopment plan established pursuant to Sections 33333.2, 33333.6, and 33333.10 at least 15 percent of all new and substantially rehabilitated dwelling units developed within a project area under the jurisdiction of an agency by public or private entities or persons other than the agency shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income. Not less than 40 percent of the dwelling units required to be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, very low income households.
(ii) To satisfy this paragraph, in whole or in part, the agency may cause, by regulation or agreement, to be available, at affordable housing cost, to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or moderate income or to very low income households, as applicable, two units outside a project area for each unit that otherwise would have been required to be available inside a project area.
(iii) On or after January 1, 2002, as used in this paragraph and in paragraph (1), "substantially rehabilitated dwelling units" means all units substantially rehabilitated, with agency assistance. Prior to January 1, 2002, "substantially rehabilitated dwelling units" shall mean substantially rehabilitated multifamily rented dwelling units with three or more units regardless of whether there is agency assistance, or substantially rehabilitated, with agency assistance, single-family dwelling units with one or two units.
(iv) As used in this paragraph and in paragraph (1), "substantial rehabilitation" means rehabilitation, the value of which constitutes 25 percent of the after rehabilitation value of the dwelling, inclusive of the land value.
(v) To satisfy this paragraph, the agency may aggregate new or substantially rehabilitated dwelling units in one or more project areas, if the agency finds, based on substantial evidence, after a public hearing, that the aggregation will not cause or exacerbate racial, ethnic, or economic segregation.
(B) To satisfy the requirements of paragraph (1) and subparagraph (A), the agency may purchase, or otherwise acquire or cause by regulation or agreement the purchase or other acquisition of, long-term affordability covenants on multifamily units that restrict the cost of renting or purchasing those units that either: (i) are not presently available at affordable housing cost to persons and families of low or very low income households, as applicable; or (ii) are units that are presently available at affordable housing cost to this same group of persons or families, but are units that the agency finds, based upon substantial evidence, after a public hearing, cannot reasonably be expected to remain affordable to this same group of persons or families.
(C) To satisfy the requirements of paragraph (1) and subparagraph (A), the long-term affordability covenants purchased or otherwise acquired pursuant to subparagraph (B) shall be required to be maintained on dwelling units at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of low or very low income, for the longest feasible time but not less than 55 years for rental units and 45 years for owner-occupied units. Not more than 50 percent of the units made available pursuant to paragraph (1) and subparagraph (A) may be assisted through the purchase or acquisition of long-term affordability covenants pursuant to subparagraph (B). Not less than 50 percent of the units made available through the purchase or acquisition of long-term affordability covenants pursuant to subparagraph (B) shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, very low income households.
(D) To satisfy the requirements of paragraph (1) and subparagraph (A), each mutual self-help housing unit, as defined in subparagraph (C) of paragraph (1) of subdivision (f) of Section 33334.3, that is subject to a 15-year deed restriction shall count as one-third of a unit.
(3) The requirements of this subdivision shall apply independently of the requirements of subdivision (a). The requirements of this subdivision shall apply, in the aggregate, to housing made available pursuant to paragraphs (1) and (2), respectively, and not to each individual case of rehabilitation, development, or construction of dwelling units, unless an agency determines otherwise.
(4) Each redevelopment agency, as part of the implementation plan required by Section 33490, shall adopt a plan to comply with the requirements of this subdivision for each project area. The plan shall be consistent with, and may be included within, the community's housing element. The plan shall be reviewed and, if necessary, amended at least every five years in conjunction with either the housing element cycle or the plan implementation cycle. The plan shall ensure that the requirements of this subdivision are met every 10 years. If the requirements of this subdivision are not met by the end of each 10-year period, the agency shall meet these goals on an annual basis until the requirements for the 10-year period are met. If the agency has exceeded the requirements within the 10-year period, the agency may count the units that exceed the requirement in order to meet the requirements during the next 10-year period.

Nothing in this paragraph precludes the agency and the developer of the mutual self-help housing units from agreeing to 45-year deed restrictions.
(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), the agency may permit sales of owner-occupied units prior to the expiration of the 45-year period, and mutual self-help housing units prior to the expiration of the 15-year period, established by the agency for a price in excess of that otherwise permitted under this subdivision pursuant to an adopted program that protects the agency's investment of moneys from the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund, including, but not limited to, an equity sharing program that establishes a schedule of equity sharing that permits retention by the seller of a portion of those excess proceeds, based on the length of occupancy. The remainder of the excess proceeds of the sale shall be allocated to the agency, and deposited into the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund. The agency shall, within three years from the date of sale pursuant to this paragraph of each home ownership or mutual self-help housing unit subject to a 45-year deed restriction, and every third mutual self-help housing unit subject to a 15-year deed restriction, expend funds to make affordable an equal number of units at the same or lowest income level as the unit or units sold pursuant to this paragraph, for a period not less than the duration of the original deed restrictions. Only the units originally assisted by the agency shall be counted towards the agency's obligations under Section 33413.
(3) The requirements of this section shall be made enforceable in the same manner as provided in paragraph (7) of subdivision (f) of Section 33334.3.

(g) "Longest feasible time," as used in this section, includes, but is not limited to, unlimited duration.
(a) For only the Mt. Eden Sub-Area of the Eden
Redevelopment Project Area, the Redevelopment Agency of the County of
Alameda may count, towards satisfaction of the housing production
requirements of subdivision (b) of Section 33413, the construction of
units outside the project area but within the City of Hayward if all
of the following conditions are met:
(1) The units shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of very low or low income.
(2) The units shall comply with subdivision (c) of Section 33413, except that the requirements of that subdivision shall be deemed satisfied if the recorded covenants or restrictions are enforceable by the City of Hayward.
(3) The units shall be located on a parcel or parcels immediately contiguous to the Mt. Eden Sub-Area of the Eden Redevelopment Project Area.
(4) The Redevelopment Agency of the City of Hayward shall provide to the Redevelopment Agency of the County of Alameda written consent to the measures taken pursuant to this section and shall not count any units credited to the Redevelopment Agency of Alameda County pursuant to this section towards its own production or replacement requirements under Section 33413.
(b) The Redevelopment Agency of the County of Alameda shall cause to be made available, at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of very low, low-, or moderate-income households, as applicable, two units outside the project area for each unit that otherwise would have been required to be available inside the project area as required by clause (ii) of subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 33413.
(c) This section does not apply to a housing unit for which construction commences on or after January 1, 2012.
(1) The units shall be available at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of very low or low income.
(2) The units shall comply with subdivision (c) of Section 33413, except that the requirements of that subdivision shall be deemed satisfied if the recorded covenants or restrictions are enforceable by the City of Hayward.
(3) The units shall be located on a parcel or parcels immediately contiguous to the Mt. Eden Sub-Area of the Eden Redevelopment Project Area.
(4) The Redevelopment Agency of the City of Hayward shall provide to the Redevelopment Agency of the County of Alameda written consent to the measures taken pursuant to this section and shall not count any units credited to the Redevelopment Agency of Alameda County pursuant to this section towards its own production or replacement requirements under Section 33413.
(b) The Redevelopment Agency of the County of Alameda shall cause to be made available, at affordable housing cost to, and occupied by, persons and families of very low, low-, or moderate-income households, as applicable, two units outside the project area for each unit that otherwise would have been required to be available inside the project area as required by clause (ii) of subparagraph (A) of paragraph (2) of subdivision (b) of Section 33413.
(c) This section does not apply to a housing unit for which construction commences on or after January 1, 2012.
Not less than 30 days prior to the execution of an
agreement for acquisition of real property, or the execution of an
agreement for the disposition and development of property, or the
execution of an owner participation agreement, which agreement would
lead to the destruction or removal of dwelling units from the low-
and moderate-income housing market, the agency shall adopt by
resolution a replacement housing plan. For a reasonable time prior to
adopting a replacement housing plan by resolution, the agency shall
make available a draft of the proposed replacement housing plan for
review and comment by the project area committee, other public
agencies, and the general public.
The replacement housing plan shall include (1) the general
location of housing to be rehabilitated, developed, or constructed
pursuant to Section 33413, (2) an adequate means of financing such
rehabilitation, development, or construction, (3) a finding that the
replacement housing does not require the approval of the voters
pursuant to Article XXXIV of the California Constitution, or that
such approval has been obtained, (4) the number of dwelling units
housing persons and families of low or moderate income planned for
construction or rehabilitation, and (5) the timetable for meeting the
plan's relocation, rehabilitation, and replacement housing
objectives. A dwelling unit whose replacement is required by Section
33413 but for which no replacement housing plan has been prepared,
shall not be destroyed or removed from the low- and moderate-income
housing market until the agency has by resolution adopted a
replacement housing plan.
Nothing in this section shall prevent an agency from destroying or
removing from the low- and moderate-income housing market a dwelling
unit which the agency owns and which is an immediate danger to
health and safety. The agency shall, as soon as practicable, adopt by
resolution a replacement housing plan with respect to such dwelling
unit.
An agency causing the rehabilitation, development, or
construction of replacement dwelling units, other than single-family
residences, pursuant to Section 33413 or Section 33464, or pursuant
to a replacement housing plan as required by Section 33413.5, or
pursuant to provisions of a redevelopment plan required by Section
33334.5, primarily for persons of low income, as defined in Section
50093, shall give preference to those developments that are proposed
to be organized as limited-equity housing cooperatives, when so
requested by a project area committee established pursuant to Section
33385, provided the project is achievable in an efficient and timely
manner.
The limited-equity housing cooperatives shall, in addition to the
provisions of Section 817 of the Civil Code, be organized so that the
consideration paid for memberships or shares by the first occupants
following construction or acquisition by the corporation, including
the principal amount of obligations incurred to finance the share or
membership purchase, does not exceed 3 percent of the development
cost or acquisition cost, or of the fair market value appraisal by
the permanent lender, whichever is greater.
An agency may operate a rehousing bureau to assist site
occupants in obtaining adequate temporary or permanent housing. It
may incur any necessary expenses for this purpose.
An agency shall provide relocation assistance and shall make
all of the payments required by Chapter 16 (commencing with Section
7260) of Division 7 of Title 1 of the Government Code, including the
making of such payments financed by the federal government.
This section shall not be construed to limit any other authority
which an agency may have to make other relocation assistance
payments, or to make any relocation assistance payment in an amount

(a) An agency shall monitor, on an ongoing basis, any
housing affordable to persons and families of low or moderate income
developed or otherwise made available pursuant to any provisions of
this part. As part of this monitoring, an agency shall require owners
or managers of the housing to submit an annual report to the agency.

(b) The data specified in subdivision (a) shall be obtained by the agency from owners and managers of the housing specified therein and current data shall be included in any reports required by law to be submitted to the Department of Housing and Community Development or the Controller. The information on income and family size that is required to be reported by the owner or manager shall be supplied by the tenant and shall be the only information on income or family size that the owner or manager shall be required to submit on his or her annual report to the agency.
(c) (1) The agency shall compile and maintain a database of existing, new and substantially rehabilitated, housing units developed or otherwise assisted with moneys from the Low and Moderate Income Housing Fund, or otherwise counted towards the requirements of subdivision (a) or (b) of Section 33413.

(G) Whether occupancy in the unit or units is restricted to any special population, including senior citizens.
(2) Notwithstanding subparagraphs (A) and (D) of paragraph (1), the database shall omit any property used to confidentially house victims of domestic violence.
(3) Upon establishment of a database under this section, the agency shall provide reasonable notice to the community regarding the existence of the database.
