12-1133. Just compensation; slum clearance and redevelopment

(Caution: 1998 Prop. 105 applies)

In any eminent domain action for the purpose of slum clearance and redevelopment, if private property consisting of an individual's principal residence is taken, the occupants shall be provided a comparable replacement dwelling that is decent, safe, and sanitary as defined in the state and federal relocation laws, section 11-961 et seq. and 42 USC 4601 et seq., and the regulations promulgated thereunder.  At the owner's election, if monetary compensation is desired in lieu of a replacement dwelling, the amount of just compensation that is made and determined for that taking shall not be less than the sum of money that would be necessary to purchase a comparable replacement dwelling that is decent, safe, and sanitary as defined in the state and federal relocation laws and regulations.
