We <br />coordinate escrow closings, and <br />work with property owners to resolve escrow <br />issues. <br />As part of our project control procedures our Acquisition Manager maintains a schedule to track escrow status, <br />including open escrows and target closing dates. Our firm is prepared to implement additional processes and <br />procedures that may be needed and will accommodate PWA requests to further acquisition processes. We <br />expeditiously prepare any information required by PWA including Board of Supervisors Agenda items, Staff <br />Reports or public hearing notices. <br />Relocation Services <br />Displaced persons require the highest degree of relocation care and expertise. The ROW Company's team of <br />certified, multi-lingual Senior Relocation Agents are sensitive to the diverse needs of displaced persons. We <br />emphasize proactive public engagement from the earliest stages of development through implementation to build <br />rapport with our diverse communities and ensure the success of relocation programs. <br />We perform all relocation assistance services in accordance with the Relocation Assistance and Real Property <br />Acquisition Policies Act of 1970 (Uniform Act), and/or the California Relocation Assistance and Real Property <br />Acquisition Guidelines (State Act) as appropriate; and other related procedures and regulations. There are slight <br />variations between the State Act and Uniform Act and our agents apply appropriate regulations consistent with <br />project funding. <br />We specialize in preparing Relocation Impact Documents (RID) which are a critical blueprint in the early stages of <br />project planning for assessing and communicating relocation needs and resources available under local, state and <br />federal relocation assistance Laws. We prepare a Relocation Plan as part of Caltrans, State and Federal regulations. <br />In the Plan we assess project scope, risks, requirements and resources. We assess low income household needs <br />and/or special needs under the provisions of Replacement Housing of Last Resort (LRH). <br />Our Relocation Manager coordinates with PWA to prepare a relocation schedule that establishes milestones for <br />the delivery of relocation services and is used to track the status of relocation services. Our Relocation Manager <br />tracks relocation payments and provides updates to PWA in coordination with the Project Budget. We prepare <br />and provide monthly status reports to keep management fully informed of past, current and planned relocation <br />activities. During implementation our Relocation Manager develops a system of checks and balances, ensuring the <br />independent handling of relocation funds/ checks and services. <br />PRO POSAL TO <br />CITY OF SANTA ANA, RFP 2C- <br />�=4✓co�"e <br />25D-125 <br />12 <br />
