Anti-Displacement

On September 18, 2019 the Albemarle County Board of Supervisors passed a resolution committing the County to making all reasonable efforts to ensure that residential redevelopment and rehabilitation activities that receive County funding support or that require Board approval will minimize resident displacement or relocation to cases where no other alternative is available. To implement this policy, County staff will work with developers and property owners to avoid resident displacement, whenever possible; and when relocation is necessary, to enable displaced residents to move directly to safe, healthy, and affordable replacement housing convenient to their place of employment and/or school. Implementation guidelines for this policy are currently under development.
