Rent Control Ordinance Mayor Gonzales advised that we will deviate from the Agenda and now con- sider Item No. 23, the Rent Control Ordinance. Mr. John Brown, Legal Counsel, of Best, Best & Krieger, stated as Council requested, the Mobile Home Rent Control Ordinance has been revised and the following matters provided for: 1. The base year has been set as the year beginning January 1, 1987. While a November date had previously been discussed, the calendar year approach was taken to facilitate record keeping and computa- tion of annual profits. 2. The administration of the ordinance has been placed under the gen- eral direction of the Community Development Director. 3. A provision has been added prohibiting mobile park owners from passing through registration fees to mobile home park tenants. 4. Provisions have been added clarifying rent review procedures, al- lowing informal mediation by staff, formal hearing before a hearing officer, and appeal to the Rent Control Commission. 5. A definition of "vacancy" has been added as well as a provision for decontrol of rent when a vacancy occurs. Mr. Brown also discussed the Space Rent Agreement Exemption, as outlined on Page 5, Section 1.03 B., Exemptions From Coverage. Mr. Brown stated the Council may wish to exclude this section from the ordinance, as Mayor Gonzales has suggested. Mayor Gonzales stated the reason he felt this should be excluded was that this provision would not be of any help or assistance to the tenants, especially in one of the parks in particular. FEB 7 1989
