Land Acknowledgement Statement: The City of Berkeley recognizes that the community we live in was built on the territory of xučyun (Huchiun (Hooch-yoon)), the ancestral and unceded land of the Chochenyo (Cho-chen-yo)-speaking Ohlone (Oh-low-nee) people, the ancestors and descendants of the sovereign Verona Band of Alameda County. This land was and continues to be of great importance to all of the Ohlone Tribes and descendants of the Verona Band. As we begin our meeting tonight, we acknowledge and honor the original inhabitants of Berkeley, the documented 5,000 -year history of a vibrant community at the West Berkeley Shellmound, and the Ohlone people who continue to reside in the East Bay. We recognize that Berkeley’s residents have and continue to benefit from the use and occupation of this unceded stolen land since the City of Berkeley’s incorporation in 1878. As stewards of the laws regulating the City of Berkeley, it is not only vital that we recognize the history of this land, but also recognize that the Ohlone people are present members of Berkeley and other East Bay communities today. The City of Berkeley will continue to build relationships with the Lisjan Tribe and to create meaningful actions that uphold the intention of this land acknowledgement.

18. Referral to City Manager and City Attorney: Removing On-Site Manager Exemption Loophole for Certain Multi-Family Properties that are Adjacent and/or Share the Same Common Area (Reviewed by the Land Use, Housing & Economic Development Committee)
From: Councilmember Tregub (Author), Councilmember Bartlett (Co-Sponsor), Councilmember Taplin (Co-Sponsor)
Recommendation: Refer to the City Manager and City Attorney a proposal related to the removal of an on-site manager exemption loophole, which is currently used by certain Berkeley properties to circumvent California Code Regulation, Title 25, Paragraph 42, for certain multi-family properties that are adjacent and/or share the same common area. If the recommended regulation is enacted, it is the intent of the referral to apply it to subject properties in a prospective manner that ensures that the rights of sitting tenants continue to be fully protected (i.e., a fully occupied property will not be required to rent to an on-site manager until at least one unit becomes vacant in accordance to all applicable state and local laws governing good cause eviction protections). The referral further requests that the 4 x 4 Committee discuss and provide recommendations as to: - Any parameters that may limit the scope of this referral, including but not limited to situations in which one or more of the subject properties are owned by limited liability corporations (LLCs) and/or owners that own multiple other properties in Berkeley, California and/or beyond, with a total number of units or properties under ownership to be determined; - Any exemptions to the on- site manager requirement for certain circumstances, such as for hardship of the property owner and/or LLC and/or other circumstances in which the interest of justice may supersede the public interest of this requirement; and - Any other provisions pertinent to the efficient, just, and fair administration of the recommended regulation.
Policy Committee Recommendation: Send the item to the City Council with a qualified positive recommendation with the following amendments: 1. Reflect in the recommendation that the item is a referral to the City Manager and the City Attorney.
2. Clarify that the Rent Board’s administration of the program is unchanged from the existing arrangement. 3. Provide additional information regarding the budgetary implications and how many properties are affected.
Financial Implications: See report
Contact: Igor Tregub, Councilmember, District 4, (510) 981-7140 Action: Approved recommendation as recommended by the Land Use, Housing & Economic Development Committee with revised material in Supplemental Communications Packet #2 to remove the 4x4 Committee from the recommendation.
