What the document says

To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 504

The new section 124 applies the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 to assisted activities to the extent the Secretary sets by regulation or through waivers, and requires each grantee to adopt a relocation assistance policy that minimizes displacement, describes the benefits available to people displaced by assisted acquisition, rehabilitation, or demolition, and includes any appeal rights the Secretary sets.

What the document actually says

“``(i) minimizes displacement and describes the benefits available to persons displaced as a direct result of acquisition, rehabilitation, or demolition in connection with an activity that is assisted by a grant under this section; and”

To increase the supply of housing in America, and for other purposes, Sec. 504
That sentence, in plain words

The policy must keep people from being moved where it can. It must set out what help a displaced person can get. That covers people moved by buying, fixing, or tearing down a building.

What this is about

Rebuilding can force people out of their homes. An older federal law covers that. This makes each place write its own policy too.

No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.

How to Read This Page

The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary, not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the quotation rather than replacing it.
