Each such development and the property acquisition required shall be processed on a case-by-case basis and no such acquisition shall be undertaken until authorized by the Renewal Agency. D. RELOCATION ACTIVITIES If the Agency acquires property which is occupied and would cause the displacement of the occupants in the implementation of the plan, the Agency will provide assistance to persons or businesses to be displaced. Those displaced will be contacted to determine their individual relocation needs. They will be provided information on available space and will be given assistance in moving. All relocation activities will be undertaken and payments made in accordance with the requirements of ORS 281.045 - 281.105 and any other applicable laws or regulations. Relocation payments will be made as provided in ORS 281.060.
