a. Actual, reasonable expenses in moving the displaced person and the displaced person's family, business, farm operation, or other personal property;

b. Actual, direct losses of tangible personal property as a result of moving or discontinuing a business or farm operation, but not to exceed an amount equal to the reasonable expenses that would have been required to relocate such property, as determined by the state agency;

c. Actual, reasonable expenses in searching for a replacement business or farm; and

d. Actual, reasonable expenses necessary to re-establish a displaced farm, nonprofit organization, or small business at its new site, as determined by criteria established by the state agency.

2. Any displaced person eligible for payments under subsection 1 who is displaced from a dwelling and who elects to accept the payments authorized by this subsection in lieu of the payments authorized by subsection 1 may receive a moving expense allowance, determined according to a schedule established by the state agency.

3. Any displaced person eligible for payments under subsection 1, who is displaced from the person's place of business or farm operation and is eligible under criteria established by the state agency, may elect to accept the payment authorized by this subsection in lieu of the payment authorized by subsection 1. The payment must consist of a fixed payment in an amount to be determined according to criteria established by the state agency.
