Section 7612 - Occupancy Standards

(a) Each migrant center shall remain open 180 days each calendar year. The period of time during which a migrant center is open may be extended or reduced pursuant to written agreement between the Department and the contractor responsible for the operation and maintenance of that migrant housing center.

(b) A migratory agricultural worker and his/her immediate family may not occupy more than two housing units at any one time.

(c) To avoid overcrowding and prevent waste of space, dwellings are to be assigned in accordance with the occupancy standards set forth as follows:

These maximum standards may be waived by the contractor when appropriate in order to make temporary use of available vacant units or to house families in urgent need.

If a resident is living in a unit which is too small for his/her household according to these occupancy standards, the contractor may transfer resident to the next available unit of appropriate size or may provide resident with an available additional unit. In addition, contractor may require a resident who is living in a unit which is too large for his/her household to exchange units with a resident who is living in a unit which is too small.
