RELATING TO MOBILEHOME SPACES AND
AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 470U, AS AMENDED
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CARSON DOES ORDAIN AS
FOLLOWS:
Section 1 . The moratorium on rent increases and
certain evictions relating to mobilehome spaces imposed by
Ordinance No. 470U as amended by Ordinance No. 79-477U is
hereby extended to and including November 19 , 1979 .
Section 2. Section 6 of Ordinance No. 470U as
amended by Ordinance No. 79-477U is hereby amended to read:
This ordinance shall expire and terminate on
November 20 , 1979 .
Section 3. There exists in the City of Carson
and the surrounding area a shortage of mobilehome spaces
which has resulted in a low vacancy rate and rapidly
rising space rents. The purchase of a mobilehome involves
a substantial investment, and their relocation is expensive
and difficult. Due to the foregoing, the City Council is
reviewing and considering a proposed ordinance which would
regulate the rents charged for mobilehome spaces and the
permissible reasons for terminating or refusing to renew
a tenancy in a mobilehome park. The existing moratorium
on rent increases and certain evictions relating to
mobilehome spaces will expire on August 21 , 1979 , The
City Council needs additional time to carefully review
and consider the proposed ordinance. Unless the moratorium
is extended, substantial rent increases are likely to
occur . Such increases would defeat the intent and purpose
of the proposed ordinance and substantially impair its
effective implementation.
This ordinance affects the public peace, health,
and safety and shall take effect immediately.
PASSED, APPROVED AND ADOPTED this 30th day of
JULY 1979 .
