Thompson, City Administrato 4f I Prepared by: Development Services Department Subject: J URGENCY ORDINANCE IMPOSING A FOUR-MONTH MORATORIUM ON THE CONVERSION OF MOBILE HOME PARKS TO OTHER USES Statement of Issue, Recommendation,Analysis, Funding Source, Alternative Actions, Attachments: STATEMENT OF ISSUE: At the June 15, 1981 meeting of the City Council, direction was given to prepare an emergency ordinance for the City of Huntington Beach declaring a moratorium on the conversion of mobile home parks to other uses. The attached urgency ordinance imposing a four-month moratorium on the conversion of mobile home parks to other uses was drafted by the City , Attorney' s office in response to C©uncil' s direction. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt the attached urgency ordinance imposing a four-month moratorium on the conversion of mobile home parks to other uses. ANALYSIS: It has recently become apparent that the conversion of mobile home parks to other uses is rapidly becoming an important issue in Huntington Beach as well as Orange County. Random displacement of low-income and elderly tenants is a common result in unreg- ulated mobile home park conversions. Adoption of the proposed four-month conversion moratorium will temporarily prohibit such conversions in the City and allow staff time to investigate the issues involved with regulation of mobile home park conversions to other uses. Staff will report to Council within four months on the feasibility of setting guidelines for the orderly conversion of mobile home parks in the City to other uses. The attached urgency ordinance is an interim measure which cannot be extended beyond four months without additional Council direction.

AMW:bt CC: Jim Palin, Development Services Director REQUEA FOR CITY COUNCIL- ACTION Date September 14, 1981 Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and City Council Submitted by: Charles W. Thompson, City Administrate e Prepared by: James W. Palin, Director of Development' Services • Subject: URGENCY ORDINANCE - MOBILE HOME PARK CONVERSION ORATORIUM �®4 Statement of Issue, Recommendation,Analysis, Funding Source,Alternative Actions,Attachments: STATEMENT OF ISSUES: Pursuant to Council direction given at the August 17, 1981 City Council meeting., an urgency ordinance imposing an eight-month moratorium on the conversion of mobile home parks to other uses has been prepared. The purpose of the ordinance is to provide additional time for the Department of Development Services and. the Planning Commission to consider effective means for the order- ly conversion of mobile home parks to other uses. RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Ordinance No. 2509 to impose an eight-month moratorium on the conversion of mobile home parks to other uses. ANALYSIS• On June 29, 1981, the City Council adopted Urgency Ordinance No. 2496 which established a four-month moratorium on the conver- sion of mobile home parks to other uses. The intent of the origi- nal moratorium was to allow staff time to study the issue and report back on the feasibility of developing a permanent ordinance regulating conversions. Upon review of staff ' s report, which was presented at the August 3, 1981 City Council meeting, it was de- termined that mobile home park conversions constitute a complex issue which will require further study and direction by Council - before a decision on a permanent ordinance can be reached. A follow-up memo on mobile home park zoning was forwarded to Council in September. Because the original moratorium will expire on October 29, 1981, Council determined that an extension of the moratorium will be necessary to ensure the public welfare while further consideration is given to the issue of mobile home park conversions. As directed by Council at the August 17, 1981 City Council meeting, the attached urgency ordinance extending the moratorium for an additional eight PIO 4/81 ORB. MOBILE HOME PARK,',- Sept. 14, 1981 Page 2 months has been prepared.. If this ordinance is adopted on October 5, 1981, it will expire on June 5., 1982.. In the ensuing time, staff will keep abreast of the mobile home park conversion issue and await further Council direction.. If additional time is needed beyond June 5, 1982, Government Code Section 65858 will permit one additional extension of the moratorium not to exceed twelve months. ALTERNATIVE ACTION: Do not adopt Urgency Ordinance No. 2509 to establish an eight- month moratorium on the conversion of mobile home parks to other uses. This will allow the current four-month moratorium to expire on October 29, 1981 with no new moratorium taking effect. FUNDING SOURCE• No funds .required. SUPPORTING INFORMATION: 1.

The matter to be introduced is to urge an ordinance be passed to es- tablish a Rent Review Board, or Committee, for Mobile Home Parks in Huntington Beach. Also, to pass immediately a moratorium on rents on Mobile Home sites not to exceed those in effect as of December 4 1980. This moratorium to be in effect until the Rent Review Board, or Committee, is formed and ready to function.

A mediation proceeding under this Resolution shall be com- menced by the filing with GSMOL, WMA and the owner of a mobile home park within the unincorporated area of the County of Sacramento -a written petition signed by not less than the tenants of a majority of the spaces within that mobile home park which are rented on the date j of the petition, asserting that there has been a rental increase with i respect to some or all of the spaces within that mobile home park which has commenced since December 31, 1979, and is unreasonable. Signature of the petition by one tenant of a space is sufficient , even if there is more than one tenant of that space. In addition, the petition shall contain the following: a. The date of the petition; b. The name and address of each person filing, the petition; C. The name and address of the mobile home park involved in the petition; d. The number of mobile home spaces in the park; e. The number of mobile home spaces represented by the petition; f. The number of spaces within the mobile home park I which on the date of the petition are being rented; g. The number of mobile homes , if any, within the mobile home park known to be offered for sale on the date of the petition; h. The rent charged for the mobile home spaces , together with a schedule of all other services charged to the tenants and the period of time that such rent and charges were in effect ; i . The increase or increase of rent and the proposed date of such increase ; I' j . A description of the major capital or physical im- provements made at the mobile home park since the last rent increase, together with any additional services provided to tenants during said period and other amenities provided for . the tenants , including recreational facilities , if any; k. The facts relied upon to support the claim that the increase, or proposed increase, of rent is unreasonable, together with supporting documents; and 1. The name, mailing address , and telephone number of the owner of the mobile home park, the name, mailing address , and telephone number of the manager of the mobile home park (if the park is operated by a non-resident owner) , and the names , mailing addresses and telephone numbers of the designated re- presentative or representatives of the petitioners . Not more than three designated representatives of the petitioners shall be so named or authorized to act in behalf of the petitioners . Representatives so designated in the petition shall be fully authorized to represent the petitioners in the mediation process and agree in their behalf to such solutions to grievances as result therefrom, 2.

GSMQL and W1,1A shall develop a cooperative working arrangement to the end that mediators are appointed and- act expeditiously. If the mediators appointed by GSMQL and WYA are unable to agree on the third mediator within 15 days after their appointment, the Mobile Home Rent Review Conmission shall be empowered to appoint the third mediator of the mediation panel. 4, Each mediation panel shall, as a panel or through one of its members acting as an agent, meet individually with the designated representatives of the petitioners and the owner, manager or a re- presentative thereof.

As many meetings shall'be held as are necessary to complete the mediation process . Owners, managers or representatives thereof shall provide such information to the mediation panel or its agent member as is necessary to support the basis for the justification which the owner asserts respecting the contested rental increase. With the assistance of the mediation panel, designated representatives of the petitioners and the owner, manager, or their representatives shall make .a good faith effort to find a mutually agreeable basis for resolution of the disagreement to which the petition relates . In the event that either the petitioner or the owner shall fail to appear , cooperate , or fail to present such information as the mediation panel deems necessary, then the mediation panel shall still consider such evidence as is presented and make such recommendation as it deems appropriate as if both parties were present or were participating in the mediation -4- I process . 5.

A copy of the petition and of the written announcement shall be filed with the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors . r 6. If a mediation panel determines that a disagreement P g presented by a petition is irreconcilable, the panel shall prepare a written decision which contains findings of material facts and recommendations to the parties as to how to specifically resolve the disagreement .

The Board of Supervisors finds and determines that : (a) There is presently , within the unincorporated area of the County of Santa Cruz , and the surrounding areas , a shortage of spaces for the location of mobile homes , resulting in a low vacancy rate and rising space rents . (b) Mobile home owners have invested substantial sums in their mobile homes and appurtenances . ,I (c) Alternative sites for the relocation of mobile homes are dif- ficult to find and moving and installation of mobile homes is ex- pensive , with possibilities of damage to the units . This Board does , accordingly , find and declare that it is necessary to protect the residents of mobile homes from unreasonable space rent increases and/or assessments and unreasonable rules and regulations , recognizing the need of mobile home park owners to receive a "fair return" on their investment and revenue sufficient to cover any in- creased costs of repairs , maintenance , insurance , upkeep and additional amenities . 13 . 13 . 020 DEFINITIONS . For purposes of this Chapter, the following words are defined asfollows : (a) "Commission" means the Mobile Home Park Rent Review Commission established by Chapter 3 . 63 of the Santa Cruz County Code . (b) "Park" means a mobile home park which rents spaces for mobile home dwelling units . (c). "Owner" means the owner , lessor , or designated agent of the park. I (d) "Resident" means any person entitled to occupy a mobile home dwelling unit pursuant to ownership thereof or by a rent or lease arrangement with the owner of the subject dwelling unit . ' (e) "Ke11t" me<'Ins L. co�nsidcral i can , includinp, -,iny benefits or fees , in connection with Llic use .ind Occulmn,cy of a mobile home space in a park , or the transfer of a le,::.e• or rental 4greement for park spice , services and amenities , or sublc Ling , but exclusive of any amounts paid for the use of the mobile home dwelling unit . (f) "Assessment" means the unit allocation of the cost of installing , improving , repairing or maintaining any capital improvements bene- fitting the residents . (g) "Base Rent" means the rents of a park which were in effect on July 1 , 1979 , or any rent in effect subsequent to such date if less than the rent in effect on July 1 , 1979 . 13 . 13 . 030 MAXIMUM RENT. Commencing January 1 , 1980 , no rent charged y any owner ol a p—a—FT may exceed the base rent for the mobile home space , except as adjusted pursuant to Sections 13 . 13. 040 and 13 . 13 . 050 . Notwithstanding the foregoing , any owner who files a petition pursuant to Section 13 . 13 . 050 may continue to collect those rents in effect on January 1 , 1980 , provided that all amounts so collected which are in excess of the above described base rents shall be placed in a special trust account which shall be open to inspection by .officials of the County of Santa Cruz . For any mobile home spaces created after July 1 , 1979 , for which no rent was then in effect , . the base rents shall be established by the Commission based on the generally prevailing rates for comparable mobile home space rentals in the County of Santa Cruz . 13 . 13 . 040 SPACE RENT INCREASES WITHOUT PUBLIC HEAPING. Commencing January 1 , 1980 , upon receiving a petition concerning a space rent increase pursuant to Section 13. 13 . 050 herein , the Commission shall make a preliminary investigation to determine if the space rent in- crease exceeds the cost of living increase for the average of the immediately preceding four yearly quarters for which figures are avail- able. If the subject space rental increase does not exceed either 8% of the existing maximum rent or 100% of the cost of living increase for said period, the Commission may approve the Petition and need not hold a public hearing hereon. If the subject space rent increase ex- ceeds 8% of the existing maximum rent or 100% of the cost of living; increase for said period , the Commission shall schedule a public hearing as provided in Section 13 . 13 . 050 . Determinations pursuant to this Sec- tion shall be based upon the subject park' s gross space rent multiplied by the cost of living increase (Department of Labor Cost of Living Index for the San Francisco Bay Area) divided by the number of spaces . There shall be no more than one increase in space rents during any twelve month period . The provisions of this section shall not apply to any park which has had an increase in assessments during said period , which has diminished services available to residents during said period , or concerning which a petition has been filed by residents pursuant to Section 13 . 13 . 050 . -2- 13 . 13 . 050 REVIEW, ADJUSTMENT AND ITEMIZING PROCESS . (a) Upon the written petition of any owner , or of residents re- presenting more than 50% of the spaces within a park , excluding management space , concerning space rents , the Commission shall hold a public hearing on the petition. Any petition shall be limited to the subject of the rents which may be charged under this Chapter. (b) Hearings need not be conducted according to formal rules of evidence. The Commission shall make its decision no later than ten (10) days after the conclusion of the hearing and of the sub- mission of any additional information requested at the hearing by the Commission . (c) In evaluating rent increases proposed by the Park owner , the Commission shall consider increases and decreases of the costs to the owner attributable to utility rates , property taxes , insurance , advertising , governmental assessments , costs ' attributable to inciden- tal services , normal repair and maintenance , capital improvements , upgrading or addition of amenities or services , any change in the area of the space provided, and finally , a fair rate of return on investment and increase of property values . However, nothing in this Chapter shall be construed to automatically justify a rent increase where the mere sale of the park results in the new owner of the park having a higher capital investment than the former owner. (d) In addition to the factors listed in the preceeding paragraph, any increase proposed by a petition may be denied in full or in part for the following : 1 . Substantial evidence that punitive actions have been taken against any residents because of the resident ' s attempts to seek,_ the remedies available under this Chapter ; or substantial evidence of attempts by the owner to create vacancies (other than by natural attrition) for the purpose of having a space once occupied by a resident occupied directly, or indirectly by the owners . "Puni- tive Action" as used herein, includes , but is not limited to any change in rules and regulations , the provision of amenities , the provision of services , or significant changes in the lease- hold agreement which either : (i) impose an additional burden upon the residents , or (ii) decrease the quality of life available to the resident and cannot be shown to be based upon a reasonable business justification and which is likely to deter or punish resi- dents from availing; themselves of the provisions of this Chapter. "Business justifications" refers to situations in which a more economic arrangement is made which is generally satisfactory to the residents because a corresponding savings has been passed onto them in the form of rents decreased from what would otherwise be set pursuant to this Chapter. -3- (e) Any space rein increases 1,ii i ch leave been collected by an owner pursuant to an increase which is the subject of petition for hearing and which is later determined by the Commission to have been excessive shall be either returned to the residents or credited to future space rents , provided that no increase which has been collected prior to the effective date of this Chapter shall be returned. (f) The granting or denial of a rent increase shall be effective on the fifth business day following the date of decision unless an appeal has been filed with the Board of Supervisors in accordance with the procedure prescribed in this Chapter. 13 . 13 . 050. APPEALS . Any affected party (i .e . an owner or resident) may appeal any act or determination of the Commission to the Board of Supervisors in accordance with Sections 13 . 04 . 450 through 13 . 04 . 456 of the County Code in the same manner as provided for appeals from acts or determinations of the Planning Commission under Chapter 13 . 04 of the County Code . For this purpose the procedure therein set forth is incorporated herein and made a part of this Chapter. SECTION II This Ordinance shall take effect 30 days after final passage.

Cook � Department lic Works Date Prepared March 6 , 1980 Backup Material Attached a Yes No Subject Staff Recommendations to Improve Drainage Around the Beach View Mobile Home Park on Gnt-hard St-_ City Administrator's Comments � I ( ol�U Statement of Issue, Recommendation, Analysis, Funding Source,Alternative Actions: Statement of Issue: The Beach View Mobile Home Park located on Gothard St. south of Warner Ave. has experienced severe flooding problems during the last several years. Recommended Action: 1. Authorize staff to construct a berm along the south side of the Ocean View High School property to create a retention basin which will reduce the intensity of storm runoff on the north side of the Mobile Home Park. This will be accomplished with the assistance of the Huntington Beach Union High School District. 2. Authorize staff to prepare contract plans and specifications to deepen a swale in Huntington Central Park from Slater Ave. to the Slater Channel at Goldenwest St. in order to increase the capacity and velocity of flea in the existing shallow swale. Analysis: There are two major reasons why the Beach View Mobile Home Park has experienced flooding problems in recent years. They are as follows: 1. Develognent has occurred all around the Park, contributing large amounts of runoff to the existing drainage system. Previously the area surrounding the Park was swampy and absorbed most storm water. 2. The slope of the drainage system from the north side of the Mobile Home Park to its inlet to the Slater Channel in Central Park is extremely flat, dropping only about eight inches over a length of nearly three-quarters of a mile. The lack of slope causes runoff to move very slowly through the systen. A meeting was held with residents of the Beach View Mobile Home Park on March 4, 1980. In attendance were three City Councilmen, five Public Works staff, one High School District board member, two High School District staff and about thirty residents of the Mobile Hone Park. After considerable discussion by all parties, it was determined that the two above recommendations were the only feasible actions to be taken which could alleviate future drainage problems in the Park. The School District staff also promised to remove all grass clippings from the area as soon as possible. When this report was written, staff did not have sufficient time to prepare exhibits and cost estimates for the recommended actions. They will be available for presentation at the City Council meeting of March 10, 1980. PIo 3l7a r Request for Council Action March 6, 1980 Page 2 Alternatives: There are alternatives of approving either one recommendation or the other. However, both are needed to relieve the flooding problem. Funding Sources: These will be discussed at the City Council meeting of March 10, 1980 when cost estimates are available.

We reside in the city of Huntington Beach, specifically at Pacific Park, 80 Huntington Street which, as you know is a Mobile Home Park. This Park is adjacent to the service road for access to the Parks & Beaches facility. The road has a drainage ditch on either side of it which overflows into the South end of our park, causing serious flooding. The last rainstorm during the latter part of January 1979 this parka and the mobilehome owners suffered severe damage to the mobilehomes. The water level stood at 12-14 inches. The residents were unable to leave their homes. Most of our residents are Senior Citizens who require daily medical attention, and because of this flooding condition cannot secure this attention. The flooding ,and standing water is causing damage to the "skirting" around the homes, and undermining the foundations of :these homes. We have made previous requests to the city to correct this hazardous condition to no avail. We hereby demand that the City of Huntington Beach take immediate corrective measures and intend to hold 'the city responsible for any further damage to property and threat to human life. We thank you in advance for your immediate attention. Yours truly., NAME ADDRESS �.

April 1, 19?8, the rent increase was $25.00 per month. On December 28, 1978, an increase of $19.00 per month is being assessed. With no reason given for either increase . We feel this is unjustified due to the following reasons: 1. Property tax; The 1977-78 taxes were $70, 140.00. The 1978-79 taxes are $31,699.34. Where is the justification for the above rent increase? 2. Improvements ; No improvements during this current year. The streets are in horrible condition. 3 . Conditions ; Only one approximately 25' acce:.•: road to park creates a hazardous condition. 4 . Comparative rents= In the last ten years the rents .have. increased from $50.00 per month, t, the assessed $199.00 per month. These rents are higher than any comparable Mobile Home Park in Huntington Beach. We are :faced with these .problems which we have found to solve without your help.

There is presently within the City of Vacaville and the surrrounding areas, a shortage of spaces for the location of mobile homes. Because of the shortage, there is a low vacancy rate, and rents have been for several years, and are presently, rising rapidly and causing concern amongst a substantial number of Vacaville residents. Because of the high cost of moving mobile homes, the potential for damage, resulting therefrom, the requirements relating to the installation of mobile homes, including permits , landscaping ' and site preparation, the lack of alternative homesites for mobile home resi- dents and the substantial investment of mobile homeowners in such homes, the city council finds and declares it necessary to protect the owners and occupiers of mobile homes from unreasonable rent increases while at the same time, recog- nizing the need of the park owners to receive a "fair return" on their invest- ment and rental increases sufficient to cover the increased cost of repairs, maintenance, insurance, upkeep and additional ammenities. SECTION 2. Definitions. (a) "Board". The Mobile Home Rent Review Commission board established by Section-4 of this ordinance. (b) "Commissioners". Commissioners'of the Mobile Home Rent Review Commission. (c) "Space Rent".

JFB/vl attachment .JAI ' CITY OF HUNTINGTON BEACH • INTER-DEPARTMENT COMMUNICATION HUNTINGTON BEACH CITY OF HUIV I IIVG I OI4J BtACII MINISTRAtIVE OFFICE To Bud Belsito From Ed Selich �� City Administrator Planning Director Subject CITY COUNCIL INQUIRY CONCERNING Date June 14, 1977ww MOBILE HOME SUBDIVISIONS AND a— MOBILE HOME PARKS FOR FAMILIES In response to an informal petition submitted June 6 , 1977 , concerning establishment of family mobile home communities, the City Council requested the Planning Department to report on the following matters: 1. Subdividing of mobile home parks for private ownership 2. Mobile home parks for families Each issue must be explained as to how current provisions of law treat these entitlements and what approaches are available to encourage such arrangements. SUBDIVIDING OF MOBILE HOME PARKS FOR PRIVATE OWNERSHIP Mobile home subdivisions are not uncommon in Southern California cities. Several outlying areas of Orange County have for years provided for fee conveyance of mobile home lots - most notably the City and County of Riverside. Those jurisdictions allow for the subdivision of mobile home parks or in certain areas individual mobile home lots similar in fashion to a single family dwelling subdivision may be permitted. This is accomplished through zoning in which mobile homes are exclusively allowed and other dwelling types are prohibited. Interspersement of mobile home lots with other building types, such as single family dwellings, is allowed only in areas where housing is very old and the area is in a period of transition. It is readily apparent that developers have opted for establishment of one-owner adult mobile home parks. While Huntington Beach does not prohibit mobile home subdivisions, it should be noted that in a coastal area where land prices are at a premium the likelihood of a developer establishing a mobile home subdivision is dim in view of fees and the land and development costs which would be necessary. Indirectly as a result of not specifically providing development standards designed for such lots under the provisions of a mobile home district, such develop- ments have not been encouraged in the past. Potential profits accruing from mobile home lot sales would be sub- stantially less than that which is gained from the sale of -conventional housing or apartment rentals. The allowable density for mobile home parks is nine units per acre under current ordinances. N / Page 2 MOBILE HOME PARKS FOR FAMILIES According to several mobile home park operators contacted, the primary reason mobile home parks are established for adults only is that the typical inhabitant is at or nearing retirement age and that the inclusion of children and adolescents within such a facility would create an incompatible environment. In addition, the typical mobile home park site layout was cited as not conducive to accommodating children, e.g. , lack of substantial yard area. A general survey in mobile home parks in the City indicates that the median age of mobile home residents is approximately 60 years . Municipalities cannot regulate private development to insure that pro- visions are made for inclusion of families as a percentage of the mobile home park population. METHODS OF ENCOURAGING FAMILY MOBILE HOME OWNERSHIP AND OCCUPANCY One feasible method of encouraging mobile home development with family accommodations would be to pursue incentive zoning vis-a-vis permitting a higher density of mobile homes where such family arrangements would be offered. The staff believes, however, that such developments would have to be designed. substantially different than existing mobile home parks to provide for the family needs. This incentive, however, may not prompt developers to risk trying some- thing different than the proven and profitable adult mobile home park concept. Another avenue of pursuit to encourage family mobile home communities would be to allow for mobile home lot subdivisions similar in fashion to a single family tract or to allow placement of mobile homes on existing lots within other residential zones . The staff believes, however, that allowing the siting of mobile homes within areas other than mobile home parks is not conducive to achieving a goal of compatible lot types, site designs, and aesthetics within residential zones of the City. Government subsidization to purchase land and/or build family mobile home communities is one possibility where the City could actively take a part in encouraging such a living environment. However, we know of no such programs currently available. CONCLUSION: In order to encourage family mobile home communities in Huntington Beach, it is likely that a subsidy to the developer (incentive zoning) or a government subsidy is necessary to promote this arrangement. Again, however, this may not overcome the developers ' inclination to construct the commodity which has proven to be successful in the past. r Page 3 Mobile home park subdivisions can be more actively encouraged by adoption of development standards to address such designs. However, this arrangement may not spur development of mobile home subdivisions because of the previously mentioned economic atmosphere under which the competition with other building and lot types is intense.

The provisions on masonry walls is deleted because there is a conflict in that the regulations require utilization of the city standards exclusively whereas the building code permits alternate designs subject only to the requirements of the code. It appears that the original chapter was drafted to apply to perimeter walls for our own public property. The deletion in no way affects the public works department's ability to regulate such walls. The present section on trailer parks contains some conflicts with both the State Health and Safety Code and Division 9 of the Huntington Beach Ordinance Code. This amendment eliminates those conflicts and makes these various regulations compatible.

The City Council directed staff to seek reactions from the State to this proposal. We have since been advised that the State Department of Transportation is now both the owner and operator of the Cabrillo Mobile Home Park and that the City of Huntington Beach has no jurisdiction. The Depart- ment 'of Housing and Community Development will work with the Department of Transportation in operating the Cabrillo Mobile Home Park. I have been advised that the Department of Transportation will proceed with the installation of the backflow prevention device on the city water supply as required by State and local laws. In view of this latest information, Resolution No. 4144 is no longer necessary. The City' s Building and Community Development Department will continue to enforce regulations in the other mobile home parks throughout the city.

Mr. Adams has served notice of termination of his lease with the State of California dated August 14 , 1975 . It appears that he will be relieved of these obligations effective October 14 , 1975 . Therefore , according to the Building and Community Development Department, any criminal proceedings for misdemeanor vio- lations at this time would be meaningless since after October 14 , 1975 , the State of California will be the operators of the trailer park and the conditions will remain unchanged. It appears that we have only two courses of action to pursue now that the State of California will be responsible for the operations of the Cabrillo Trailer Park: 1 . Proceed with the enforcement of the Health .and" Safety Code and institute appropriate action to enforce the original notice of Feb- ruary, 1975, naming both the Department of Transportation and the operator and seek the appropriate court order to cease the continuing operation of the park since it does not have the required actual per- mit to operate. 2. Since it would be extremely difficult to require the State to comply with the Health and Safety Code , the City should act to return juris- diction over mobile home parks in the city of Huntington Beach to the State of California. Based on this alternative , a resolution has been prepared which would constitute the written notice provided for in S. 18300 of the Health and Safety Code cancelling the City ' s assumption of responsibility for enforcement of Title 25 , California Administrative Code, relating to mobile homes and mobile home parks . The City of Huntington Beach receives an estimated annual revenue of $7 , 000 from mobile home parks based on a State established fee of $25 per park plus $2 per space . As of January, 1976 , this revenue will be reduced based upon a new State established fee of $25 per park and $1 per space. Since there .are approximately 3 , 259 mobile home spaces in the city, the City would realize a reduction in revenue of approximately $3 , 259 . Therefore, by relinquishing the jurisdiction to the State , it would result in an estimated reduction in revenue of approximately $3 , 800 . The City is expending more than that in staff time in attempting to obtain compliance with the Health and Safety Code. p - �,Tt David D.

Rowlands From William S . Amsbary City Administrator Acting City Attorney Subject Mobile Home Enforcement Date October 17 , 1975 Jurisdiction As you. are aware , the City Council expressed some reluc- tance over the adoption of Resolution No. 4144 which would return jurisdiction over mobile home parks within the city to the state. Several questions were raised by the Council. First, the liability, if any, .the city m.ay .have incurred by assuming a duty to supervise these parks which may, survive the abdication of the enforcement function .- I have assigned this to one of our staff for a legal opinion, however, that opinion will not be available by the agenda deadline . Next , the Council requested staff members communicate with the state with the view toward working out a compromise of the enforcement problems at Cabrillo Mobile Home Park area. Our recent experience has-been entirely negative . The State ' s attitude seems to be that if we cause their tenant to abandon the lease and the State, itself, becomes. the operator, the problems at the park will worsen, and the State does not intend to assist the City in enforcing even basic health and safety regulations in the park. John Behrens has reported similarly. We will be pleased to re-contact Cal Trans for a more current reading at your request, however. The last concern of Council was that the complying operators would suffer from state regulation enforcement and loss of local control merely because we have one bad apple in our barrel. Because the City is enforcing the state law, we do not feel our complying parks should- be affected one way or the other. Because we cannot possibly meet the Friday, October 17 , 1975, deadline for the Thursday, October 23, 1975 Council meeting with the obligations we have assumed, we are suggesting the item be deferred for action on the next upcoming agenda in November.

Chapter 5 of Title 5 of that code sets forth the procedures and requirements for the installation of such facilities . Contained within the code is the authorization for the local enforcement agency to establish appropriate fees for the processing of applications , the review of plans and the making of subsequent inspections . The code establishes the fee schedule in those instances where the State is the enforcement agency. Attached is a resolution which, in accordance with the authority granted under the law, will establish the fee structure for these purposes . The suggested schedule is identical to that adopted by the State. It is our feeling that the fees are reasonable and reflect the costs to the City of performing these functions . RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the Council adopt the attached resolution establishing fees for permits authorizing the installation of mobile homes in mobile home parks . Respectfully submitted, David D. Rowlands City Administrator DDR:k j 7-21-71 Dear Mr. Jones: AB 2294 is out for print with a technical amendment. As soon as they are in print I will send you a copy.

QUIMBY MEMBER OF ASSEMBLY,SEVENTY-SECOND DISTRICT MEMBER ASSEMBLY RULES COMMITTEE June 25, 1971 MEMORANDUM TO: MEMBERS OF THE ASSEMBLY FROM: JOHN P. QUIMBY SUBJECT: ASSEMBLY BILL NO. 2294 --------------------------------------------------------------- I. Present Law: Mobilehome parks are regulated by Division 13, Part 2.1 of the Health and Safety Code. This is a lengthy statute composed of many lengthy sections. In addition some 60 pages of California Administrative Code supplement the statutes. Section 18501 of the Health and Safety Code provides that all mobilehome parks (recreation vehicle parks) must comply with local zoning, health, and fire ordinances. Case Law provides that a city or county may not arbitrarily prohibit a particular type of housing since it thereby prohibits the people requiring that housing. State statute can authorize such local prohibitions. Health and Safety Code Section 18300 permits cities and counties to arbitrarily prohibit mobilehomes and mobilehome parks Page 2 (and recreation vehicle parks) it also authorizes local government to thoroughly regulate land use standards by providing design criteria applicable to the total mobilehome park. This has resulted in excessive local ' standards which require the development of very expensive mobilehome parks with a low lot density. This means that people who wish to J ive in parks cannot afford the rents which must be charged. II. Effect of AB 2294: Mobilehome park development will still be subject to local zoning, health, and fire' ordinances. It is entirely possible that no mobilehome park can be constructed within a given community because of the above health and safety standards. Local government cannot arbitrarily prohibit mobilehome parks. The design criteria contained in local zoning ordinances would not apply to interior lot arrangement and density. Local government can specify the zoning in which construction can occur; parcel size for development; and perimeter property line setback of said parks, landscaping, and access, etc. III. The cities in California have been provided with erroneous information which leads them to believe that they will not be able to regulate mobilehome park locations. To overcome . this objection the bill will be amended by inserting a new subsection (a) to Section 18300 as follows : P. 2, line 22: " (a) From prohibiting mobilehome parks within zones where multiple dwellings are not permitted provided further that local authorities may determine within which such zones mobile parks may be located. " P. 2, line 22 Change " (a) " to " (b) " line 22 P. 2, line 33 Change " (b) " to " (c) " line 33 y4 4 Page 3 P. 2, line 42 Change " (c) " to " (d) " line 42 P. 3, line 1 Change " (d) " to " (e) " line 1 1 July 19, 1971 The Honorable Alfred H.

Huntington Beach, California NUN Dear Sirs: 29 p� 1 • 4 1 1971� We, on the undersigned petition request that the pedestrian gate at the foot of Newland Street and Pacific Coast Highway be left unlocked for free access to the Beach State Park. We feel that since we are all tax payers that help maintain this Beach we should have accessibility for walking and pleasure activities on the beach. There is a desirability of access for other enjoyment other than swimming, such as walking on the beach, beautiful view of the water, boats out on the water passing by, fresh air and sunsets. Restricting access to the beach for such activities is certainly a distortion of the purpose of public parks, not only for the residents of Huntington Beach but also for out of state residents who come here to see our beautiful beach and city that you advertise so greatly and nationally. The past arguments with park and city personnel was their opinion that life-guards, security, attendants and other personnel must be present whenever the gate is opened which is certainly unjustified. There are other beaches accessible, completely opened without all this said personnel, are operated without argumented society problems. Pedestrians may go through the main entrance at Beach Boulevard, other accessible openings for residents at other locations along the beach at any given time or they climb over or under the fences and walk up and down the beaches at their hearts content, why shouldn!t we all! There may be some who do not drive vehicles but can walk, those who enjoy walking or need to walk. Why should we be forced to walk five or six miles along with the congested dangerous speeding vehicles on Pacific Coast Highway when we can enter onto the beach from within 500 yards to h mile and continue a full five or six miles healthful walk on a safe beautiful beach. By the time onewalks the un-necessary distance to an accessible entrance one cannot enjoy the walk and sights on the beach due to nervousness or exhaustion from jeopardizing ones life among the speeding motorist. We do respect your fence and do not climb over or under however we might have the desire to do so but we do not intend to damage your property or fence so we stay home denied of our rights to enjoy our State Beach by a non-accessible entrance. ! r' 1 � • BY-THE-SEA MOBILE VILLAGE AND TRAVEL TRAILER AREA 21831 NEWLAND STREET AT PACIFIC COAST HIGHWAY - HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA 92628 - 17141 586-8916 Only opening this pedestrian gate when the park is full does not provide ample access during normal or cool days as residents do walk and in all kinds of weather not just holidays or vacations. As a yearly accessible unlocked gate onto the beach at this point will eliminate needless excess vehicle parking and traffic. Why should we need to drive our vehicles miles to the main entrance to the beach when we can walk only a few blocks from home leaving our vehicles home thus leaving parking spaces available for one that cannot walk and for long distance travelers. If your parking facilities are full of nearby walking residents with their vehicles then that makes it necessary for others not within walking distance to park along Pacific Coast Highway near the beach and creates more problems. Due to the heavy and excessive speeding of motorist from 65 to 85 miles per mile on Pacific Coast Highway and the accidents at Newland Avenue and Pacific Coast Highway we also request a light signal or a crosswalk at the foot of Newland Avenue. If you check all other street entrances in our fair city as well as other cities along the coast onto Pacific Coast Highway you will find signal lights have been installed for safety and convenience. In the past a crosswalk or signal light was not so imperative but due to the heavily populated area of the Mobi.lehome Parks, homes and apartments on Newland Avenue, Alanta, Hamilton and Indianapolis, it is imperative now that one is needed for the safety of pedestrians/- We the undersigned feel we have been neglected and have had no consideration of being residents of Huntington Beach or our lives protected in neglect of a signal light or crosswalk for pedestrians as well as passengers in in vehicles turning at this dangerous intersection. We hope and pray that your department will consider, valuate, take action and honor our request on these very important matters on an immediate . future date. Thank you, i cerely Y V C M. A.

Further, Mr. McIntosh assures me that they do not propose to operate this park as a "closed" park, but that they are required under conditions set by the Planning Commission to sell certain types of trailers on the perimeter of the park.

These losses have been reported to the police at the time they occurred. After cleaning up our yard and improving the looks of our property, about three months ago we moved a trailer onto the_-.property and now have a night watchman staying there and a large dog. Nothing has been stolen since. The trailer is on wheels and can be moved off at any time, but we would like permission to continue this arrangement to see if it prevents further burglaries .

The trailer will provide working space for our office personnel. We are hopeful that the first phase of construction of the new SS.

BUSINESS MANAGER Telephone: Kimberly 7-5101 DIRECTOR, PUBLIC HEALTH LABORATORY August 23, 1961 Huntington Beach City Council City Hall Huntington Beach, California Gentlemen: The California Legislature has recently enacted Assembly Bill 2126 Chapter 2176, pertaining to trailers and trailer parks, which becomes effect- ive September 15, 1961. The Act applies throughout the State and supersedes all local ordinances on this subject. It contains requirements relating to permits and fee schedules, lot areas, building construction, plumbing, toilet facilities, electrical systems, trailers, maintenance and sanitation, liquified petroleum gas and general provisions. The Act states that " . . . .Upon written notice to the Division of Housing, and city, county, or city and county may assume the responsibility for the en- forcement of this part. . . .". Since we, as your Health Department, would be called upon to enforce the provisions of the Act relating to maintenance, sanitation and toilet facilities, should you decide on local enforcement, we will appreciate being advised of your wishes and intentions in this matter. The Health Department is prepared to assume any responsibilities you may wish to delegate, and we will be happy to arrange for the enforcement of those provisions of the Act within our field of interest. In this respect we feel that, since we are responsible for the supervision of sanitation matters in related types of housing, commercial establishments and other premises, the enforcement of sanitation requirements in trailer parks by the Health 1)4parktment is desirable from the standpoint of uniformity and continuity of approach. We will await your instructions and, should you desire, will be happy to discuss this matter with you at�' your convenience. ,1 Very truly yours, DW.I P D.

(COPY OF A REPORT SUBMITTED AT 1959 ANNUAL MEETING OF THREE ARCH BAY ASSOCIATION. THE MEETING ORDERED COPIES DISTRIBUTED TO ALL MEMBERS. ) Madam Chairman and Fellow Members: At the request of our President, an investigation has been made of certain aspects of the plan of Mr. George A. Gade to put a so-called "mobile homes park" on the land immediately adjoining Three Arch Bay. The undersigned and Mr. Ralph Pringle carried out this invest- igation,, going to numerous sources of official information. The facts here reported may not be of interest to the County Planning Commission, who must decide whether Mr. Gade's plan can be carried out, but all of the following items are pertinent to the pocketbooks of all persons who live in or own property in Three Arch Bay. Mr. Gade has stated, through his attorney, that he has secured a 55 year lease from the Moulton interests covering fifty acres of land beginning at the southern boundary line of Three Arch Bay, running from the highway to the ocean, and extending about two-thirds of the way to Salt Creek. On this fifty acres Mr. Gade proposes to rent spaces to 350 house trailers. No other details of the lease are available because inquiry at the County Recorder's office indicates that the lease has not yet been recorded. This land, like the land on all sides of it, is presently zoned R-1, restricting its use to single family residences, according to Mr. Harry Bergh, County Planning Commission Director. The lessee must obtain a variance from the County Planning Commission after notice and hearing. At the outset, we must all realize that we have no right to expect adjacent ranch land to be occupied forever by only wild flowers and cattle. What we do have a right to expect is use of such land in strict accordance with county zoning which protects the property rights and value of every resident or owner in Three Arch Bay and also those owners of R-1 property to the south of this parcel and across the road to the southeast. With this in mind your committee investigated the comparative effects of using this land for a trailer camp instead of developing it as a c-ommunity of single family residences as contemplated by the zoning. This effect could be measured best in terms of whether such neigh- bors would bear a fair proportionate share of commom burdens. The . proposed trailer park is within the South Coast Sanitation District and also our water district. It is not in the Laguna Beach Unified School District, but the San Juan Capistrano district. These districts and others that serve us, such as cemetery, flood, harbor, library districts, constitute the biggest part of our tax bill. Our trailer neighbors would benefit from and get use of all these district services and it is of interest to see how they would participate in the tax burdens therefor. As you know, our tax bills are based on assessed valuation of three basic items: land, buildings and personal property or furnishings of the buildings. h Home owners, like ourselves have title to both house and lot and furnishings and all are taxable directly by the county and the money is distributed to all of the -local districts that serve us. The situation with a trailer camp is quite different. The owner of the trailer park pays the tax on the land and the few buildings that are used in common by all the trailer owners. For example, the Dana Strand Club, owners of the trailer park down near Dana Point, which trailer park comprises 24.68 acres of ocean front land, pay taxes on land assessed at $52,380.00 or an average of $2,125.00 per acre. Mr. Gade owns a trailer park in Anaheim called LaPaz, comprising 26 acres. The land there is assessed at $76,690.00 or an average $2,949.06 per acre. For comparison, a tax official told us that if the Moulton parcel next to us were developed according to its zoning, with single family houses, four to the acre, those home owners would bear a land assessed evaluation of about $8,000 per acre. That last figure is comparable to the assessed value of much of the acreage in Three Arch Bay. Thus we find that use of the adjoining land as a trailer park would produce in taxes on land somewhere between 26% and 37% of what it would if it were developed with houses. The Assistant County Assessor stated to us that land used for trailer parks is generally assessed lower than land used for single family houses. The calculations above show just how great the difference is. .Of course, the trailer park owner would pay taxes on his buildings (not the trailers) . In the ultra fine Dana Strand Club the assessed value of improvements belonging to the club is $49,870 or an average of only $2,000 per acre. In the LaPaz Anaheim location owned by Mr. Gade, the assessed valuation of improvements is $66,250.00 or an average of $2,550.00 per acre. Against those figures, the tax man above referred to estimated that the Moulton 50 acres developed in accordance with its zoning would carry an assessed valuation on buildings of about $5,000 per dwelling, four to the acre or an average of $20,000.00 per acre. Thus we find that the adjoining property used for a trailer park would produce in taxes on so-called park or community buildings only somewhere between one-tenth and one-eighth the amount of improvement taxes that home owners would pay on R-1 houses built on this land. Then comes the question about the tax paid on the trailers themselves. That is the most interesting angle of all. Of course, the trailer owner pays a tax, but how much and where the money goes was an eye opener. The Assessor says that a trailer itself is immune from taxation by the county. Legally, it is a vehicle and is taxable only by the State which collects in the form of annual license plate fee. That fee is based on the age and cost of the trailer when new - just like an automobile. Actually, there is very little wear and tear on a trailer because there are. some around that are fifteen. years old and look as good as new, but they enjoy, for tax purposes, the fast depreciation that is applied to automobiles. -2- e The state fee, according to the Department of Motor Vehicles, per $19000 of original cost when new is as follows: 1st year $19 5th year $7 2nd " 15 6th " 5 3rd t° . 12 7th " 3 4th " 9 8th " 2 9th & older 1 Applying this schedule to an actual case, if you buy a big, fancy $8,000 trailer your license fee the first year would be $152 plus an item of $8 or a total of $160. But everyone does not buy either the largest trailers nor new trailers. Certainly every trailer in a given trailer park is neither brand new nor 15 years old. The average is somewhere in-between. As a liberal average lets consider a trailer that costs $69000 when new and that is now four years old. On such a trailer the owner pays the State $9 x 6 which equals $54 plus $8 or a total of $62 per year. Now, what happens to that money? Does it wind up helping you pay for sewers, water, flood control, etc? Let us see how the County Auditor's office handles it. The State retains the $8 and returns the other $54 to the County Auditor in the county where the trailer. was located at time of registration. We asked the County Auditor's office what they do with the $54. The answer was that one-half or $27 is immediately buried in the County General Fund. The other half or $27 is paid to the unified school district in which the trailer was located. Here the Auditor' s office made a significant statement. None of that relatively small sum paid by the trailer owner goes to our Sanitation District, our 'later District, our Flood Control District, our Harbor District, our Library District nor even to our Mosquito Control District, all of which services are enjoyed by the trailer owner and which items make up the bulk of the taxes paid by house owners. As to the matter of personal property tax, that is on house furnishings, the Tax Assessor said that it was not worth mentioning because the assessed value of the furniture in the average trailer did not exceed the $100 household exemption which the trailer owner claimed. Taking the actual land improvement assessments on the two top grade trailer parks cited before and added the total received by the county from our hypothetical trailer owner, multiplied by seven trailers per acre, we come up with these figures on the total tax money avail- able to the county from one acre in a trailer camp: Assessed value per acre of trailer park - Real Estate $29949 Improvements 2,550 Total 5, 99 Take, for example, a tax rate of 6.4 and multiply X 6.4 $351.93 8.00 Total tax money from one acre of trailer park $729.93 Compare that to taxes that would be paid by four R-1 houses on that acre, each assessed at $$7,000 for land, improve- ments and personal property, multiplied by the same tax rate of $6.4 per hundred $7,000 X 4 Assessed value $M,000 X tax rate 6.4 $1,792.00 -3- (At no point in this report have we mentioned nor considered our own special Three Arch Bay Improvement District taxes) . The preceding calculations indicate that home owners in single family houses on the property in question would pay two and one-half times as much in taxes as do trailer parks, but bear in mind that better than one-half of the total estimated taxes we have said the trailer ark and trailers would pay (i.e. , the taxes paid on the trailers does not ever reach our Sanitation District, Water District and other services that they would enjoy and that we pay for. We would be forced to let trailer owners use our sewers but what they would pay for sewers is only the relatively small assessment against the trailer park owner (which is only about one-forth the assessment for houses on comparable acreage) plus just $1 per. trailer per month. In Three Arch Bay there are many little five room houses that pay for sewers $175 per year special assessment plus 82 per month service charge. In the above figures we have taken into account the statement of Sanitation District officials that their district tax is. based on assessed value of land, improvements and personal property. To compare with the foregoing figures we have a survey and study made by the office of the Orange County Superintendent of Schools at the request of the County Planning Commission to determine whether people living in trailers bear their fair share of taxes. That report analyzed all taxes paid by trailer owners and park owners in twelve trailer parks of average wealth in Orange County. That report concludes with this statement: "Each trailer, plus trailer space, pays 1/6 or 1/5 as much in takes as does each residential dwelling". There are many other aspects of this matter in its effect on Three Arch Bay but your committee is convinced that a trailer court next to us would not pay anywhere near its fair share of local govern- mental services, including payment of our large sewer bond debt, and that this would place an undue financial burden on the shoulders of house owners and land owners in Three Arch Bay.
