13 Va. Admin. Code § 10-80-40
In the case of a unit to be rehabilitated, any tenant occupying such a unit at the time of submission of the application must satisfy the eligibility criteria in the section 8 rules and regulations in order for that unit to be assisted (subject to certain exceptions in the section 8 rules and regulations).
Owners may not combine two or more units, if that rehabilitation activity will result in fewer units than tenants currently in residence and therefore require displacement.
