I am the Director of Property Management for Sands Mobile Estates located at 323 N. Euclid <br />Avenue, Santa Ana. <br />JR Enterprises is the original owner of the Sands Mobile Estates. We've had positive relations with our tenants since its <br />inception in 1975! <br />For the past 20 years, the ownership has voluntarily participated in its our own form of rental assistance program for its <br />tenants who qualify under HUD guidelines. <br />Rent Control causes the values of the mobile homes to skyrocket making them less affordable to people to buy. So, <br />buyers have to pay much more for the mobile homes in order to live there. With no rent control, there is a delicate <br />balance of value of the homes and value of the space rent to new buyers. Rent Control interferes with that balance <br />and the purchase price of the homes increases dramatically. <br />The proposed rent control ordinance is so strict and it will mean park owners cannot afford to put the extra money into <br />making improvements. <br />You are making a broad sweep and punishing the landlords who value their tenants and work with their tenants and it <br />will have a negative affect that you do not see coming down the road. The City wants nice, clean, affordable rental <br />housing but you are tying the hands of those who want to provide this. <br />Sands ownership ASKS that you VOTE NO on passing the rent control ordinance. <br />Lisa SiiIbeII <br />Diireclor of Property Managerne nt <br />JR Enterprises, !.P <br />4299 Main: Arthur &Iw.i, Suite :11.04 <br />Nevrlport Bean:lh, CA 92660 <br />(949) 852..9000 Ext 226 <br />Iksibel @! rentemr!ses. net <br />
