many years, or he could say otherwise and trigger the provisions of Section 66427.5 at the time of the conversion date, which would be the date of the first sale of the unit. He added that at that point, the City’s ordinance ceases to be effective. Commissioner Olson asked if staff tried to determine why so many residents did not respond to the survey. Mr. Roush replied that staff did not follow up with those who did not respond to the survey. He added that staff felt 120 responses out of 208 residents was not a bad return. Commissioner Narum inquired if the documents provide language that, somewhere along the line, the park could not be converted from senior housing to a regular mobile home. Mr. Roush replied that the rent stabilization agreement includes a provision that identifies it as a senior park; therefore, contractually, it could not be converted to a family park. He noted that when the lots within the park go up for sale, a similar provision restricting the park to senior residents will be included in the CC&R’s. Commissioner Narum inquired what would happen in 2017 when the rent stabilization agreement expires and is not renewed and if it is 100 percent certain that it will be still be for seniors once conversion occurs. Mr. Roush replied that if an agreement cannot be reached, an ordinance would be put in place that the park be age-restricted, which he felt would be reasonably defensible; however, there are also Federal housing laws that need to be considered. He noted that the owner has indicated that his intent is to keep the park age-restricted, which would be part of the conversion process, although the conversion has not been expressly conditioned as such. Commissioner Narum inquired if it were possible to condition the park to remain age-restricted. Mr. Roush replied that he did not believe the owner would have any objection to that. Commissioner Narum noted that the tenant impact report and the minutes from January 8, 2009 quoted Ms. Forbath in several places as stating that the rent structure will change. Commissioner Narum added that she did not see a discussion in the impact report of what that means and inquired if it needs to be included. Mr. Roush replied that he believed Ms. Forbath was referring to the fact that residents would no longer be operating under the rent stabilization agreement but under State law instead, which has a different formula for how rents are calculated. He noted that this is addressed in the tenant impact report in Section 4, page 3 PLANNING COMMISSION MINUTES, February 25, 2009 Page 13 of 29
