SUBJECT: Review of Mobilehome Rent Stabilization
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATIONS) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
RECOMMENDATIONS
The Mobilehome Advisory Committee recommends that the Board
encourage mobilehome park owners to institute long term leases with
mobilehome park residents to discourage extraordinary rent increase
in the future.
FISCAL IMPACT
None.
BACKGROUND/REASONS FOR RECOMMENDATIONS
On May , 21, 1992 the Mobilehome Advisory Committee " at� their
regularly scheduled meeting invited all interested parties to
discuss the issue of rent stabilization as requested by the Board.
The Committee took testimony from members of the public in regards
to the amount of rent currently being paid and the increases over
the previous years. The residents were concerned that the rent
increase by the park owners were not tied to increased operating
cost in the parks and were unjustified. The Committee was
concerned over the inequity in rents within individual parks, and
the rent increase for new move-ins.
However, the Committee determined. through public testimony that the
real issue behind the request for rent stabilization was how, the
parks were being maintained. Many residents complained that the
owners/managers were not responding to their request for repairs 'in
the park. The .Committee indicated that they would be willing to `
investigate any complaints brought before them and 'work with the
residents and park owners to resolve the issues.
