(3) If a Relocatee accepts an offer of Shelter Services, HPD may order a Relocatee to move from one temporary shelter to another if, in the judgment of HPD, this facilitates the work of HPD or reduces the costs of temporary shelter.

(4) A Relocatee who declines an offer of Shelter Services may be eligible for other Relocation Services as provided in these Rules. However, a Relocatee who has declined an offer of Shelter Services will not be eligible for any further Shelter Services, despite eligibility for other Relocation Services.

(5) HPD will provide a Relocatee with a copy of these Rules in English and Spanish and such other language as it deems necessary. HPD will notify such Relocatee of the name, office address and telephone number of the Case Manager assigned to the Relocatee. A copy of these Rules in English and Spanish and such other language as HPD deems necessary will also be made available in the offices of Case Managers.

(6) HPD will assist a Relocatee in completing and submitting an application for housing or a NYCHA housing application on behalf of the Relocatee. A Relocatee who fails or refuses to complete such application(s) will be ineligible for any further Relocation Services and subject to termination.

(7) HPD will pay the cost of Shelter Services in such amount as HPD deems adequate for Relocatees residing in temporary shelters.

(8) HPD will refer a Relocatee to one Standard Apartment. A Relocatee may request that such Standard Apartment be located in a particular borough, if available, provided, however, that a Relocatee may not refuse a Standard Apartment on the basis that it is not located in the preferred borough.
