Until recently we have <br />Erik Boardman <br />had an excellent working relationship with the city in resolving mobile home park issues <br />Thomas Casparian <br />Betsy Gibson <br />and in providing rental assistance for residents of our Parks. Unfortunately, rent control <br />Daniel Rudderow <br />Dave Thomas <br />was adopted over our strong objections and the submittal of substantial evidence that rent <br />Past Presidents <br />control or rent stabilization was not an appropriate action. <br />Ed Evans <br />J. R. Phillips <br />William L. Miller <br />Robert Olander Sr. <br />We have now had time to deal with the implementation of the ordinance and it is <br />Paul Bostwick <br />blatantly clear that there is not a balanced approach to dealing with rental property <br />Janet Gilbert <br />Clarke Fairbrother <br />owners and the tenants. Based on our experience, I suppose we should not be surprised <br />Boyce Jones <br />Chelu Travieso-Earhart <br />with the proposal before you to change how the ordinance can be modified to require a <br />Larz <br />JammessJones <br />super majority of five council members vote to make amendments to the existing rent <br />C-enh <br />CraigHouser ser <br />Craig Houser <br />control and just cause eviction ordinance. <br />Robert Olander II <br />Stanley Magill, Jr. <br />Wynn Hornburg <br />Wynnornb <br />I am aware that several attorneys are responding on behalf of their rental property owner <br />Y p g p p Y <br />Natalie CostagAnderson <br />Ander Rodney <br />clients. I will not repeat all that they have brought forward for the record, but encourage <br />son <br />William L. Miller <br />you to please read and consider those communications thoroughly. This proposal is at <br />Lifetime Achievement <br />best an ill-conceived political to that is in complete violation of the Ci 's own charter, <br />p ploy p ty <br />Award Recipients <br />eci <br />Norm McAdoo <br />Section 410, as well as the California Government Code Section 36936. <br />John Crean <br />R.J.
