six months from the date of notification of the property owner that his
property requires rehabilitation work in order to conform with the Urban

for acquisition may not be acquired by the Urban Renewal Agency:
Properties which are'scheduled for acquisition by the Urban Renewal Agency
in rehabilitation areas will be excluded from acquisition in cases where the

writing within a reasonable period of time, and prior to initiation of action
by the LPA to acquire such property, to promptly undertake and complete
such redevelopment as contemplated and required by the Urban Renewal Plan.

cleared. The Urban Renewal Agency may acquire the structure(s) and/or
improvements without acquiring the real property, with appropriate controls
and restrictions for the redevelopment of the property to conform to the
requirements of the Urban Renewal Plan. This section shall apply to

or condition violates existing laws, codes or ordinances.
(c) Provide land for public improvements of facilities: Where a public need
exists, and an area meets the requirements of the state and federal law,
said area may be acquired, cleared and redeveloped for public use. When
the desired objectives of the plan can be achieved while leaving structures
which are standard or feasible for rehabilitation within the clearance
area, said structures shall remain where compatible with the plan of
redevelopment.
(d) Promote historical or architectural preservation: Any property certified
by.local historical or architectural organizations as being worthy of
preservation shall be studied for feasibility for rehabilitation and
preservation.

and desirable living conditions commensurate with the type and quality
of the property under consideration.
2. SPACE STANDARDS
2.1 Objective
To provide each living unit with space necessary to provide suitable
living, sleeping, cooking and dining accomodations, storage, laundry,
refrigeration equipment and cooking equipment, and sanitary facilities;
also, to provide space of such and dimensions as to permit placement
of furniture and essential equipment.

For existing work, dimensions for interior spaces are based upon
measurements taken between finished floor, wall, ceiling, or partition
surfaces. The area occupied by a stair or by closets shall not be
included in the determination of required room area.
2.3 Required spaces
The following spaces shall be required in each dwelling unit: kitchen,
dining, bath, living, and sleeping.
2.4 Minimum room sizes and floor areas
Room sizes - The size of rooms shown in Table 114-1 shall be minimum
for the subdividing of existing spaces or for the construction of
new rooms. Unremodeled existing rooms where considered of adequate
size and arrangement for the intended function by the property
authority, are acceptable if not more than 10 percent smaller than
the minimums given in the following schedule: Minimum area for
single dwelling unit is 600 sq.ft.; efficiency apartment minimum
area is 300 sq.ft.; one bedroom minimum area requirement is 400
sq.ft.; two bedroom minimum requirement is 500 sq.ft.
Floor area - The floor areas given in Table R4-1 are minimum for
healthy occupancy in order to reflect maximum construction economy
but the combining of these min,imums in planning living units is not
recommended. Only plan layouts which provide successfully for closet
and window location, door swings and furniture placement will determine
whether minimum space will result in acceptable livability.
