(a) 
Findings. The city council finds that:
(1) 
Mobile homes are an important form of affordable housing in the city, particularly for seniors and persons with moderate or lower incomes;
(2) 
Many mobile home owners have made a large financial investment in their mobile home and loss of this investment would limit their ability to find replacement housing;
(3) 
Vacant mobile home spaces in comparable mobile home parks are scarce in the city and in surrounding communities, and acceptance criteria often exclude older mobile homes; and
(4) 
Due to the reasons stated above, the conversion, closure or cessation of use of a mobile home park could have an adverse impact on the ability of displaced residents to find adequate replacement housing. The mitigation measures required by this chapter are found to be necessary and reasonable, consistent with state law, while recognizing the rights of park owners to pursue changes in land use.
(b) 
Purpose. This chapter establishes requirements to ensure that the adverse social and economic impacts of any mobile home park conversion on displaced residents are identified and mitigated through adequate notice, reasonable relocation and other assistance. These requirements are established under the authority granted by California Constitution, and Government Code Sections 65863.7 and 66427.4, and Civil Code Section 798.56.

(Ord. 2983-12 § 5)

Failure to Prepare a CIR. Failure of the park owner to submit a CIR within the required time frame is declared a public nuisance. This nuisance is due to the potential for severe adverse social and economic impacts on residents and mobile home owners by delaying the necessary analysis and provision of necessary relocation assistance. At that time, the director shall prepare the CIR and bill the cost to the park owner. The park owner shall reimburse the city for the cost within thirty days of receipt of the bill.

(B) 
Rent Subsidy for Senior, Disabled or Low Income Households. For eligible senior, disabled or low income households, relocation assistance may include payment of a rent subsidy of up to twenty-four months if needed to offset increased housing costs and secure comparable housing. The rent subsidy is the difference of rent paid by the resident in the park and any higher rent for either a space at another park if the mobile home is relocated, or rent for comparable housing if the resident moves to other rental housing. Mobile home owners who are eligible to sell their mobile home to the applicant at its in-place value may only receive the rent subsidy if the selling price is inadequate to secure comparable replacement housing for at least twenty-four months.
(C) 
Mobile Home Relocation Costs for Mobile Home Owners. For any eligible mobile home owner whose mobile home can be relocated, relocation assistance may include the lowest of three estimates obtained by the relocation specialist from licensed mobile home movers to physically relocate the mobile home to up to a maximum distance of one hundred miles. The mobile home owner is responsible for additional costs to move the mobile home to a location farther than one hundred miles. The estimates shall include the cost of disassembly of the mobile home, transportation to the new site, reinstallation, replacement or reconstruction of blocks, skirting, shiplap siding, porches, decks and awnings, earthquake bracing if necessary, insurance coverage during transport, and utility hook-ups.
(D) 
Sale at One Hundred Percent In-Place Value for Mobile Home Owners. For any eligible mobile home owner whose home cannot be relocated to a comparable park within twenty miles or another park chosen by the mobile home owner, the city council may require the applicant to purchase the mobile home at one hundred percent of its inplace value. The applicant shall hire a mobile home appraiser from a list provided by the director to determine the inplace value of the mobile home. If the mobile home owner disputes the appraised value of their mobile home, the mobile home owner may hire an appraiser from the director's list to obtain an appraisal. To be considered, the mobile home owner shall obtain the appraisal within one hundred eighty days of the approval date of the CIR. If a second appraisal is obtained, the mobile home owner is entitled to the average of the appraisals obtained by the applicant and the mobile home owner.
If the appraiser identifies lack of maintenance, deferred maintenance or deterioration of the subject park that negatively affects the value of a mobile home, the appraiser shall determine the value of the home with an upward adjustment in value if necessary to eliminate the negative effect in value caused by the lack of maintenance, deferred maintenance or deterioration, normal wear and tear excepted.
(E) 
Right of First Refusal for Residents. For all eligible residents, relocation assistance shall include the right of first refusal to purchase or rent new homes or apartments to be constructed on the park site. Income-eligible residents may have first priority to purchase or rent any below market rate (BMR) units which may be constructed on the park site, if they meet all eligibility requirements for the BMR housing program. In order to receive priority for BMR units, interested residents shall file a request with the housing division before vacating the park.
