Subject:Allow Property Rental located at 384 Karelian Street in Danville
BACKGROUND: (CONT'D)
• The homes must be sold at a restricted price to an income eligible buyer (“Eligible Purchaser”); and
• The units must be owner occupied for 20 years
The owner of 384 Karelian Street, Robert and Melissa Rockefeller, purchased their property in September, 2007, at
which time they signed the resale agreement. A Rockefeller household member has health issues and the family needs
to relocate on a temporary basis to care for the ill member. The family intends to move back into 384 Karelian Street
within two years. In view of the applicable deed restrictions, the owner is seeking authorization from the County to
rent the unit.
The term of this temporary rental shall be for up to two (2) years. Monthly rents shall not exceed current mortgage
payments, including taxes and insurance. The new tenant shall not be entitled to relocation expenses when the lease
terminates.
Due to the family’s temporary relocation, staff recommends that the County allow them to rent their home.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
Should this not be approved, the property owner would not be allowed to rent this unit.
