in effect54-01.1-01. Declaration of policy
The purpose of this chapter is to establish a uniform policy for the fair and equitable
treatment of persons displaced as a direct result of programs or projects undertaken by a state
agency so that displaced persons will not suffer disproportionate injuries as a result of programs
and projects designed for the benefit of the public as a whole and to minimize the hardship of
displacement by the acquisition of real property by state and local land acquisition programs, by
federally assisted building code enforcement programs, or by a program of voluntary
rehabilitation of buildings or other improvements conducted pursuant to governmental
supervision. The policy must be uniform as to:
1. Relocation payment;
2. Advisory assistance;
3. Assurance of availability of standard housing; and
4. State reimbursement for local relocation payments under state-assisted and local
programs.
