RELOCATION POLICY
COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCe-GRANT
SECTION 1 PURPOSE
This relocation policy is the City of Lubbock's and
states the benefits which will be provided to dis-
placees who are not covered by the Uniform Relocation
Assistance and Real Property Acquisition Act of 1970.
The City of Lubbock will minimize displacement of per-
sons from their homes and neighborhoods. It is the
intent of the City of Lubbock to limit displacement to
cases which provide a threat to life and health. It is
the further intent of the City to provide reasonable
benefits to any displaced person.
SECTION 2 DEFINITIONS
"Displacement" means the involuntary movement, except
temporary relocation, of a household from a dwelling
unit resulting from its acquisition, rehabilitation, or
demolition when: (1) Funded in whole or in part with
CDBG funds; or (2) funded with non-CDBG funds where the
acquisition, rehabilitation, or demolition is a pre-
requisite for an activity carried out with CDBG funds
(e.g. acquisition of land with local funds for a neigh-
borhood facility to be constructed with CDBG funds.)
"Displacement" also means the involuntary movement,
except temporary relocation, of a household from a
dwelling unit necessitated by CDBG assisted code
enforcement.
SECTION 3 ELIGIBILITY
All residents legally occupying the property at the
time of the commencement of the Community Development
funded activity be eligible for relocation benefits
should displacement occur. Eligible tenants for relo-
cation assistance and moving expenses are those persons
with income adjusted for family size which would qual-
ify as low income persons as defined by the Community
Development Regulations.
Information, counseling, referrals and other relocation
services will be provided to tenants regardless of
their race, color, religion, sex, age, handicap, or
national origin.

South Overton Neighborhood Request
The Overton South Neighborhood Association has submitted a
request for CDBG funding.. The following is a list of__the.
requested projects:

clearance of those blighting influences in Overton South
which are reasonably certain not to be eliminated by private
redevelopment (i.e., uses which are architecturally
incompatible with the land use plan and zoning, or which are
substandard). An example of a few of these structures are:
2101 14th; 2314 14th; 2202 15th; 2101 16th; 2023 17th; 2324
17th; 2213 18th; 2309 18th; 1611 Avenue Y; and the
commercial on the corners of 15th and Avenue W.
2. Use Community Development funds to return Avenues S and
T to two-way residential streets and "T" the intersection of
16th Street and Avenue X.
3. Determine the best means for dealing with: needed
sidewalk, driveway, and curb and gutter replacement and

repair; unfinished alley returns; andalley paving (to
permit off-street parking, rear garages, and 'access to rear
houses), especially for areas nearest Tech. Regarding
asphalt blockouts in brick streets, pending the availability
of brick from the Broadway project, make needed repairs
where deterioration is occurring.
4. We would like to request that two or three alley lights
be placed per block (with priority given to the areas
nearest Tech) and that ornamental street lights be repaired
and painted as needed."..
Contingency Fund $100,000
The contingency fund is allocated by the City Council action as
needed to fund additional projects or budget overruns for
existing projects.
