Stamford Code of Ordinances ch. 152 § 152-22 establishes the reimbursement amounts that operators must provide to eligible households for relocation and moving expenses. Compliant property owners or managers generally calculate whether the tenant's monthly rent exceeds $500 and apply the appropriate figure — either the flat $500 amount or one full month's rent. Keeping clear records of the applicable rent amount helps document that the correct reimbursement figure was used.
