As used in this chapter, "displaced person" or
"displaced" or "displacement" with reference to a person, means a
person who moves from real property, or moves personal property from
real property, because of the acquisition of the real property and the
improvements located on the real property, or the partial acquisition of
real property to the extent that continued use by the owner or occupant
is rendered impossible or impracticable, or as the result of the written
order of the acquiring agency to vacate the real property intended to be
acquired by the agency, or as the result of an order issued by an agency
engaged in code enforcement activities to vacate the real property.
Solely for purposes of sections 13, 14, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 24 of
this chapter, the terms also include a person who moves from real
property as a result of the acquisition of, or written order of the

individuals living together in a single family dwelling are displaced
from the dwelling, they are regarded as one (1) displaced person for
purposes of this chapter, except that each individual may receive a
payment for actual moving expenses and losses under section 13 of this
chapter.
