Richter Signature f�V Fnrm Nn PC1P Q7nR7 REQUEST FOR CITY COUNCIL ACTION Date May 23, 1984 Submitted to: Honorable Mayor and City Council Submitted by: Charles W. Thompson, City Administrat r . Prepared by: I+C� /�,J4-° James W. Palin, Director, Development Services6 Subject: CODE AMENDMENT NO. 84-10 - ARTICLE 927 - "MOBILEHOME OVERLAY ZONES/REMOVAL/eREZONING/CHANGE OF USE" Statement of Issue, Recommendation,Analysis, Funding Source, Alternative Actions, Attachments: STATEMENT OF ISSUE: Code Amendment No. 84-10 would modify the buy-out formula for mobilehomes by terminating depreciation of coaches on the date of issuance of the Notice of Intent to Change Use. This code amendment was prepared at the direction of the City Council. RECOMMENDATION: Planning Commission Action and Recommendation: The Planning Commission recommends that the City Council adopt Code Amendment No. 84-10 through the approval of the attached ordinance. Staff Recommendation: Staff recommends that the City Council adopt Code Amendment No. 84-10 through the approval of the attached ordinance. ANALYSIS: PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION ON MAY 15, 1984 : ON MOTION BY LIVENGOOD AND SECOND BY HIGGINS CODE AMENDMENT NO. 84-10 WAS APPROVED AND RECOMMENDED TO THE CITY COUNCIL FOR ADOPTION , BY THE FOLLOWING VOTE: AYES: Higgins, Winchell, Livengood, Porter, Erskine, Schumacher, Mirjahangir NOES : None ABSENT: None ABSTAIN : None The proposed code amendment is intended to modify the buy-out formula for mobilehomes as contained in Section 9270 .5 ( b) , paragraph four. The existing formula depreciates coaches at a PIO 4/81 rate of 4. 7 percent per year from date of purchase to date of park closure. The proposed code amendment would terminate depreciation of coaches on the date of issuance of the Notice of Intent to Change Use, rather than on the date of park closure. The effect of the proposed code amendment will be to slightly increase the buy-out value of mobilehomes. Since the ordinance requires a minimum 18 month notification and allows a six-month extension, the proposed formula modification could remove two years of depreciation (or more) from the depreciated value of coaches. For example, a coach which was originally purchased for $30 ,000 and which was 10 years old on the date of issuance of the Notice of Intent to Change Use would depreciate $1,702 during the two year notification period, for a buy-out value of $16,835. If depreciation were terminated on the date of issuance of the Notice of Intent (as proposed) , the buy-out value would be $18 ,537 . A longer notification period will result in even a greater savings in value to the coach owners. The proposed code amendment will, therefore, achieve the objective of the City Council by increasing buy-out value if the minimum notification period is given. ENVIRONMENTAL STATUS: Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act, Code Amendment No. 84-10 is categorically exempt and no environmental review is necessary. FUNDING SOURCE : No funds required. ALTERNATIVE ACTION: The City Council may deny Code Amendment No. 84-10 and retain the existing buy-out formula, or the City Council may direct staff to propose additional buy-out formulas.
