F. Matter of Report of the City Council Mobile Home Committee. Council Member Glaze said he and Council Members Perry and Faria serve on the Mobile Home Committee. He said they met with staff and had three community meetings in the south and north parts of town and at City Hall . He said the thrust of the meetings was to obtain input from residents and park owners and to listen to problems and develop solutions. He said they looked at a number of different parks. He said there was a need for relief for residents that could not addressed through rent control . He said there are many people having a hard time paying rent. He said it became very clear that not all parks are the same and any ordinance needs to meet the needs of each specific park. He said one ordinance will not meet the needs of the entire City. He said the City needs to look into the vacancy de-control issue. He said at this point the Committee recommended a rent-control ordinance, but only after determination is made on a case-by-case analysis of each park as a result of petitions submitted by the residents. He said an independent mediator who determines if an ordinance is needed should look into the matter and then report back to the City Council to enact the ordinance. He said the ordinance should incorporate vacancy de- control with limits on what can be charged after a coach is sold. He said the Committee suggested that the City Attorney prepare the framework for such an ordinance and the City Manager prepare a full fiscal analysis and that this be discussed with the full City Council .
