By MARTIN HARMON
•‘We're ready to do business.”
This wa- the statement Wed-
nesiiay cf Gene White, director of
Kings .Mountain Redevelopment
commission, eoncerning the Cans-
lor .stri'Ct area renewal project.
He .speciLofl, ‘■We’re ready to
make offers to purcliase property
in the 110-aere area and to relo
cate those living in the 189-plus
re.sidences adjud.:ed derelict or
sub-standard and wliieh are to
be razed.”
Mr. VVliltc said a number of
j)rojK.»rty owners in the area have
re{X)Ued tliey have found pur-
eha.sable properties and housing
i.s available to renters in Pine
Manor .Apartments,
“We welwme aid of the indi
vidual in finding liis o'wn re
placement quarters,” he added.
The area is generally bounded
by Cansler street, Waco Road,
Watterson and King .streets, with
.some spillover to Mountain and
west of Watterson.
Mr. White gave some e.xamples
of relocation aid available, ex
plaining that the example.s are
general and that “each case
must stand on its own feet”:
1) Assuming a house to be
razed is v'alucd at $.ofH)0 and the
replacement (“ost to the owner-
occupant is $10,000. the owm^r-
occupant is (digible fur a $.5000
out-right grant if he rebuikls or
purcha.se.s another d\\i*!Ung. He
is also eligible for an additional
payment for normal cln.'^ing icosts.
2) A tenant relocatee who con
tinues to rent i.s eligible for a
rent .subsidy. For example, if a
