MASTER FEE SCHEDULE AND SETTING THE
ADMINISTRATIVE FEE FOR RENT CONTROL SERVICES AT

WHEREAS, California State Mobilehome Residency Law allows local jurisdictions to establish rent control; and
WHEREAS, in 1982, the City adopted Chula Vista Municipal Code (CVMC”) Chapter
9.50, “Mobilehome Park Space Rent Review," as allowed by Mobilehome Residency Law, and amended it to its current state on July 19, 2011; and
WHEREAS, these amendments took effect August 18, 2011 and established an administrative fee to provide a limited segment of the public, specifically mobilehome residents, per CVMC Section 9.50.030, the ability to obtain unique services and benefits available to them only under Chapter 9.50, including, but not limited to, a rent calculation (via the annual permissive rent increase and exceeding the annual permissive) which results in reduced rents and related ombudsman services; and
WHEREAS, on February 14, 2012 the City adopted “Mobilehome Park Space - Rent Review Administrative Fee Regulations” establishing a process for determining and collecting such fee; and
WHEREAS, the proposed fee does not exceed the estimated reasonable cost of providing the associated services and the fund balance of the fee and estimated revenues for fiscal year 2023- 24 are sufficient to warrant reducing the fee to $10 for the 2023-2024 fiscal year; and
WHEREAS, Article XIII C of the California Constitution requires a vote of the electorate to increase any levy, charge, or exaction imposed by a local government, unless specifically exempted; and
WHEREAS, pursuant to the provisions of Article XII C, the proposed fees are exempt from the vote requirement; and
WHEREAS, the proposed amendment to the Master Fee Schedule Chapter 18 (Mobilehomes) shall become effective upon adoption of this Resolution by the City Council.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Chula Vista does hereby amend Chapter 18 (Mobilehomes) of the City's Master Fee Schedule as reflected on Exhibit 1 to this Resolution and adopts the fee at $10 for Fiscal Year 2023-24.
