(a) The Amy Young Barrier Removal Program is excluded from Section 20.11, Survey Requirements, of this Chapter to the extent funded with SHTF. A survey sufficient to induce a title company to issue a title insurance policy without the standard survey exception is required where Program funds are used for construction or acquisition because:
- (1) the rehabilitation project is enlarging the footprint; or
- (2) the Activity is reconstruction, new construction, or acquisition of an existing home.
- (b) If allowed by the Program Rules or NOFA, existing surveys for acquisition only activities may be used if the owner certifies that no changes were made to the footprint of any building or structure, or to any improvement on the Single Family Housing Unit, and the title company accepts the certification and survey.
- (c) The Department reserves the right to determine the survey requirements on a per Activity basis if additional survey requirements would, at the sole discretion of the Department, benefit the Activity.
