24VAC30-41-610. Moving expenses.
A. A nonoccupant owner of a rented mobile home can be paid for actual, reasonable cost of moving the mobile home or other personal property, or both, under provisions of 24VAC30-41-210.
If a displaced mobile home owner files a claim for actual moving expenses for moving the mobile home to a replacement site, the reasonable cost of disassembling, moving and reassembling attached items such as porches, decks, skirting and awnings, anchoring of the unit and utility "hook-up" charges are reimbursable. The cost of repairs or modifications to enable the unit to be moved to a replacement site may be paid. VDOT must determine in advance that it is necessary and practical to do so. Payment will be limited to the reasonable costs of moving the mobile home and making necessary repairs or modifications.
B. Nonreturnable entrance fees are reimbursable as part of actual cost moving expenses to an owner- or tenant-occupant, unless comparable mobile home parks are available which do not require entrance fees.
C. If the mobile home is not moved, the owner- or tenant-occupant may be paid for moving personal property in accordance with the moving expense schedule referred to in 24VAC30-41-220, or actual reasonable expenses in accordance with 24VAC30-41-210.
D. If the owner is reimbursed for the cost of moving the mobile home under these procedures, the owner is not eligible to receive a replacement housing payment, or rent supplement to assist in purchasing or renting a replacement mobile home. The person may, however, be eligible for a rent or purchase supplement to enable the displacee to secure a replacement site, as discussed in 24VAC30-41-630.
