305.612. Programs undertaken by displacing agency — relocation assistance advisory services — eligibility. — 1. Programs or projects undertaken by a displacing agency shall be planned in a manner that:
(1) Recognizes, at an early stage in the planning of such programs or projects and before the commencement of any actions which will cause displacements, the problems associated with the displacement of individuals, families, businesses and farm operations; and

2. The head of any displacing agency shall ensure that the relocation assistance advisory services described in subsection 3 of this section are made available to all persons displaced by such agency. If such agency head determines that any person occupying property immediately adjacent to the property where the displacing activity occurs has caused substantial economic injury as a result thereof, the agency head may make available to such person such advisory services.
3. Each relocation assistance advisory program required by subsection 2 of this section shall include such measures, facilities or services as may be necessary or appropriate in order to:
(1) Determine, and make timely recommendations on, the needs and preferences, if any, of displaced persons for relocation assistance;
(2) Provide current and continuing information on the availability, sales prices and rental charges of comparable replacement dwellings for displaced homeowners and tenants and suitable locations for businesses and farm operations;
(3) Assure that a person shall not be required to move from a dwelling unless the person has had a reasonable opportunity to relocate to a comparable replacement dwelling.
4. The head of a displacing agency shall coordinate the relocation activities performed by such agency with other federal, state or local governmental actions in the community which could affect the efficient and effective delivery of relocation assistance and related services.
5. In any case in which a displacing agency acquires property for a program or project, any person who occupies such property on a rental basis for a short term or a period subject to termination when the property is needed for the program or project shall be eligible for advisory services to the extent determined by the displacing agency.
