Terms Used In Vermont Statutes Title 19 Sec. 2103
- Agency: means the Agency of Transportation. See
- Equitable: Pertaining to civil suits in "equity" rather than in "law." In English legal history, the courts of "law" could order the payment of damages and could afford no other remedy. See damages. A separate court of "equity" could order someone to do something or to cease to do something. See, e.g., injunction. In American jurisprudence, the federal courts have both legal and equitable power, but the distinction is still an important one. For example, a trial by jury is normally available in "law" cases but not in "equity" cases. Source: U.S. Courts
§ 2103. Fixed payments
Instead of paying the actual relocation expenses of individuals and families, the Agency may pay fixed amounts in accordance with an approved schedule of fixed amounts. The schedule shall be of statewide application and shall provide for a graduated scale related to the size of the quarters occupied or some other uniform equitable method of scaling the payments. The schedule shall indicate whether the individuals and families are entitled only to fixed amounts or are entitled to claim reimbursement for their actual moving expenses or fixed amounts at their election. (Added 1985, No. 269 (Adj. Sess.), § 1.)
