CC - Item 7A -Proposed Mobilehome Park Conversion OrdinanceROSEMEAD CITY COUNCIL
STAFF REPORT
TO: THE HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
FROM: JEFF ALLRED, CITY MANAGER
DATE: OCTOBER 27, 2009
SUBJECT: PROPOSED MOBILEHOME PARK CONVERSION ORDINANCE
SUMMARY
Over the last few years, the City has been approached by mobilehome park owners in
Rosemead with plans to redevelop their sites into other uses. While the current
economy has slowed this interest, it is anticipated that as the economic times get better,
these inquiries will resurface. Without a conversion/relocation ordinance in place, the
City must utilize the regulations set by the State of California.
In an effort to gain local control over this issue, a mobilehome park
conversion/relocation ordinance has been drafted for the City Council's consideration.
A copy of this ordinance is attached to this report (Attachment A).
The proposed ordinance not only complies with State regulations, but gives the City
Council authority to provide for additional protection and compensation to tenants being
relocated. These conditions include conducting a public hearing prior to the eviction of
a tenant, fair market value compensation for the units and relocation, and a 12-month
rent subsidy.
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council introduce Ordinance No. 882 for first reading
approving a mobilehome park relocation ordinance and find that the Ordinance is
exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Section 15061(b)(3).
ANALYSIS
The State Government Code establishes basic requirements for the conversion of
mobilehome parks to resident ownership (Sections 66427.4 and 66427.5) or its
closure/conversion to another use (Section 65863.7). The intent of the Code is to
provide reasonable safeguards to current residents of mobilehome parks, since these
parks are often an important source of affordable housing within communities. This is
certainly true within the City of Rosemead. State law also gives local agencies some
discretion in regards to both the content of required reports, relocation
criteria/assistance, and procedural review of conversion applications. In order to be
ITEM NO. A
APPROVED FOR CITY COUNCIL AGENDA:
City Council Meeting

able to exercise this discretion, the City must establish through ordinance, these
requirements.
The proposed ordinance will ensure reasonable protection of existing mobilehome park
residents and that applications for conversions are reviewed and treated in a consistent
and equitable manner. It will require that a public hearing be held prior to the eviction of
any mobilehome park tenant and will give the City the discretion to impose certain
conditions upon the closure. These include but are not limited to, costs for relocating
the mobilehome to a comparable park, compensating the owner for the fair market
value of the unit, and providing for a 12-month rent subsidy for a comparable housing
site when displaced.
LEGAL REVIEW
The attached Ordinance has been reviewed and approved by the City Attorney.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The proposed ordinance is exempt from CEQA per Section 15061 (b)(3) of the CEQA
guidelines. A Notice of Exemption will be filed with the Los Angeles County Clerk if the
ordinance is adopted by the City Council.

ORDINANCE NO. 882
AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ROSEMEAD,
CALIFORNIA RELATING ADDING CHAPTER 17.98 "MOBILEHOME PARK
CONVERSION" TO THE ROSEMEAD MUNICIPAL CODE PERTAINING TO THE
CONVERSION, CLOSURE, AND CESSATION OF USE OF MOBILEHOME PARKS
The City Council of the City of Rosemead, State of California, does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. Intent. The City's General Plan identifies mobilehomes as an important
segment of the city's affordable housing inventory. The mobilehomes in the parks are
predominately owner-occupied units which cannot be readily relocated due to the age of the units
and the cost of moving and relocation. When a mobilehome in an existing park is sold, it is sold
in place; rarely is a mobilehome in an existing park moved from its location once it has been
placed in a park. There are virtually no vacant spaces in the mobilehome parks in the City, and
the number of vacant spaces in the county is very small. Under the General Plan and State law
the City has an affirmative duty to protect and preserve affordable housing.
The intent of this Ordinance is to ensure that any proposed conversion of an existing
mobilehome park to any other use is preceded by adequate notice, that impacts of the proposed
conversion are adequately defined prior to consideration of a proposed conversion and that
relocation costs are provided park residents, consistent with the provisions of this Ordinance,
Sections 65863.7 and 65863.8 of the California Government Code, and Section 798.56 of the
California Civil Code.
This Ordinance does not apply to mobilehome owner/residents who move into a mobilehome
park where the park owner has provided said mobilehome owner/resident with written
notification at the time they move in of intention to discontinue the Mobilehome Park on a
specific date within three (3) years of that written notification.
SECTION 2. Chapter 17.98 is hereby added to the Rosemead Municipal Code to

financing or sale. "Fair Market Value" means the probable price which a
mobilehome would bring in a competitive and open market under all conditions
requisite to a sale, the buyer and seller each acting prudently and knowledgeably,
and assuming the price is not affected by any undue stimulus. "Fair Market

shall have appraisals prepared by separate qualified appraisers of mobilehomes
with experience in establishing the value of mobilehomes for the purpose of
financing or sale. The cost for both appraisals shall be paid for by the mobilehome
park owner. The Fair Market Value shall be based upon the average of the
appraisals submitted by the Applicant and mobilehome owner.

requirements of this section the mobilehome owner and mobilehome park owner
may agree to mutually satisfactory conditions. Compliance with said agreement
by the mobilehome park owner shall constitute compliance with his section. To
be valid, however, such an agreement shall be in writing, shall include a provision
stating that the resident is aware of the provisions of this Chapter, shall include a
copy of this Chapter as an attachment, shall include a provision in at least twelve-
point type which clearly informs the resident that they have the right to seek the
advice of an attorney of their choice prior to signing the agreement with regard to
their rights under such agreement and shall be drafted in the form and content
otherwise required by applicable state law.

advisory body on the Conversion Impact Report prior to the eviction of any Mobilehome
Resident pursuant to this Chapter. (If the Council designates an advisory body, all
responsibilities of the Council with respect to the public hearing shall be the responsibility of the
advisory body.) At this hearing, the City Council shall review the application documentation as
required by Section 4. At the conclusion of the hearing, the City Council shall either accept the
Conversion Impact Report as complete or add additional mitigation measures pursuant to
California Government Code Section 65863.7(e) provided those measures do not exceed the
reasonable cost of relocation. The public hearing shall be held not later than 90 days prior to the
date provided in the notice of closure to the residents of the Mobilehome Park.

mobilehome owners and residents.
B. Subject to paragraph C below, the City Council may impose conditions in connection
with its approval of a Conversion Impact Report. Such conditions may include, but
are not limited to, payments to affected mobilehome owners and residents to mitigate
the following expenses as applicable to each particular mobilehome owner having a
mobilehome in the Mobilehome Park:

tear-down and set-up costs. Moving costs include the cost of moving the
mobilehome and the cost of moving associated relocatable mobilehome
improvements. Set-up costs include the cost of connecting utilities at the
replacement Mobilehome Park and the cost of any upgrades required to
comply with applicable laws.

(ii) first month's rent, last month's rent and security deposit at the

(iii) differential between rental rates at the Mobilehome Park being converted
and the replacement Mobilehome Park during the first year of relocation
(12-months).

such payment shall be based upon consideration of:
(i) moving costs;
