Hi Mike,
I'd like my comments to be part of the public record.

Thanks,
....Rob
------------------------------
City Council Meeting: May 8, 2024, R.K. Koslowsky public comment 1.

A big thank you to Hector Galvan and his team in the parks and recreation department for their great job in keeping city facilities, both new ones and existing ones, in great shape. With all of the extra and ongoing maintenance required, I’d like City Council to consider adding additional funding from the surplus budget bucket to Hector’s department, unless, of course, this surplus is returned to residents in the form of a tax reduction.

With taxes on our minds, bond measures are nothing more than an increasing tax load on property owners. Bonds are funded by property owners through their yearly tax bills.

Proving that the close call on Prop. 1 hasn’t satisfied state and federal politicians’ appetite for more debt, an Oakland Assemblywoman, has introduced Assembly Bill 1657, which proposes another $10 billion bond to fund existing housing programs, including those funding rental and supportive developments, among other things. But this Assemblywoman’s bond demand isn’t the only bond proposal bouncing around Sacramento. New debt totaling additional billions is being proposed for campus modernization, climate change, and drug addiction. All of these new bond-costs will further burden homeowners and likely appear on the November ballot.

So, we have local bonds and state bonds, and now property owners are being asked to approve a regional bond to pay for someone else’s housing; another transfer of a homeowner’s wealth to house someone else, somewhere in the state.

I’m curious to hear about how another $20 billion bond can effectively be spent, when an auditor’s report said there continues to be rampant waste in spending these bond funds. Today’s regional bond proposal seeks to add almost $200 annually to a Cloverdale home owner’s property bill.

Thank you.

Agenda Section:

Presentation
Staff Contact:

Kevin Thompson, Assistant City Manager / Comm. Dev. Director Agenda Item Title: Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA) and 2024 Regional Affordable Housing Bond. ______________________________________________________________________________________ Recommended Council Action(s):

Receive a presentation by Michelle Whitman, Director of the Sonoma County Community Development Commission about the Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA) and 2024 Regional Affordable Housing Bond.
________________________________________________________________________________________ Background / Summary:

The San Francisco Bay Area Regional Housing Finance Act (California Government Code 64500, et. Esq) created the Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA) in 2019. BAHFA’s purpose is to raise, administer and allocate funding and provide technical assistance at a regional level for tenant protections, affordable housing preservation, and new affordable housing production, commonly referred to as the 3p’s. BAHFA’s jurisdiction is the entire area within the boundaries of the counties Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano and Sonoma and the city and county of San Francisco.

BAHFA is a joint effort of the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) and the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG). In 2021, BAHFA secured a $20 million allocation from the state budget to begin operation and implement pilot projects across the “3Ps”. BAHFA has since received or been awarded additional funds from the state’s Regional Early Action Planning (REAP) Grant funding 2.0 funding, philanthropic donations, as well as in-kind and financial support from private industry and from MTC. With these initial investments, BAHFA is poised to deliver over $50 million in financing, programs, and technical assistance to spur innovation and advance housing solutions across the nine-county Bay Area.

The 2024 Regional Housing Bond
In the summer of 2022, the BAHFA Board and the ABAG Executive Board began the process to consider placing a $10 to 20 billion general obligation bond on the November 2024 ballot. Both the ABAG Executive Board and the BAHFA Board must authorize the regional housing bond to be submitted to Bay Area voters; if they do so, counties are required to place the measure upon the ballot. The current threshold for passing the regional housing bond is a 2/3 supermajority of all Bay Area voters (not county-by-county). However, the State Legislature recently approved ACA 1, which will place a statewide constitutional amendment on the November 2024 ballot that would reduce the threshold to 55%. If ACA 1 is approved, the reduced threshold would apply to bond measures on the same ballot. If the regional housing bond passes, eighty percent (80%) of the net revenue will be returned to counties based on each county’s share of assessed property values.

This portion of the funds is referred to as “County Housing Revenue”.

The region’s large cities and the cities that have been assigned more than 30% of their county’s low income RHNA obligation can elect to receive a direct allocation from the County Housing Revenue. In 2024, the cities that could receive a direct allocation are Oakland, San Jose, Santa Rosa and the City of Napa. The remaining twenty percent (20%) of the net revenue, referred to as “Regional Housing Revenue”, will be available to 9 City Council/Successor Agency Agenda Item Summary
Meeting Date: May 8, 2024

Page 2 of 2 ends

BAHFA for distribution anywhere in the region. The City of Cloverdale is under the umbrella of Sonoma County’s funding. The City will also be eligible for funds from BAFHA’s regional pool.

BAHFA’s Regional Expenditure Planning BAHFA and localities receiving a direct allocation from a regional housing bond are required to adopt an expenditure plan for their share of the funds (Government Code Sections 64650-64652.) BAHFA’s regional expenditure plan is due in summer 2024 (prior to the election), whereas local expenditure plans will not be due until after the election (likely in early 2025). The BAHFA Board and the ABAG Executive Board are actively developing the regional expenditure plan in consultation with local governments, housing stakeholders, and members of the public. Staff will be working with the Sonoma County Community Development Commission on a local expenditure plan over the next few months. ________________________________________________________________________________________ Options:

1. Provide direction and feedback on proposed ballot initiative. ________________________________________________________________________________________ Subcommittee Recommendation:

The Planning & Sustainability Subcommittee received a presentation on BAHFA and recommended presenting it to the City Council for review.
________________________________________________________________________________________ Budget/Financial Impact:

If approved, staff time for administration of funding.

19 Regional Accountability
29 SONOMA COUNTY EXPENDITURE PLAN – KICK-OFF MEETING 20 Sonoma County Expenditure Plan PROCESS | Goals
Be Fair:

The County’s funds will be distributed among
the eight cities, as well as the unincorporated
county. Our goal will be to ensure that funding
is allocated fairly across the region (e.g.,
RHNA need, readiness to proceed, assessed
value, etc.)
Be Ready:

By beginning this process early, once GO
bond funds become available, Sonoma County
will be well-positioned to begin supporting
housing and housing-adjacent projects as
quickly as possible.

Create a Thoughtful Plan Based on

Hi Mike,
I'd like my comments to be part of the public record.

Thanks,
....Rob
------------------------------
City Council Meeting: May 8, 2024, R.K. Koslowsky public comment 2, during BAHFA presentation portion of agenda.

Thank you for your presentation, Michelle.

Bonds are funded by property owners through their yearly tax bills.

Enough bonds already!
For a typical $700,000 home, for which most Cloverdale residences are valued, the tax burden is approaching $10,000 annually.

Why would voters approve another series of bond measures proposed for the upcoming November election, when the $10 billion Prop 1. bond barely passed two months ago, and, coincidentally, it passed just before the state auditor released its report over the mismanagement and ineffectiveness of these bonds directed at homelessness for years?
As legendary basketball coach John Wooden said, “Never mistake activity for achievement.”
With respect to BAHFA’s bond proposal, I’m baffled. It seems to be one of many new bond proposals competing for voter approval in November. Plus 20 percent of the bond funds are kept by BAHFA to expand their oversight with results-based reporting. (This is a form of taxation applied to the proposed bond fund.) Bonds used to be approved for infrastructure such as schools and roads. Now, BAHFA, as an overlay governing authority of the MTC that started out dealing with Bay Area traffic problems, has expanded its mandate by moving residents into dense housing developments. This may explain why BAHFA says it has ‘No ability to affect city and county building code requirements.’
The suggestion that developers can be attracted with bond money is inaccurate. The biggest challenge for builders, especially for low-income housing, has been the inability to make a fair profit, in part, due to onerous building codes.

Instead of the county and the state cutting building costs significantly by reducing 36 unnecessary and burdensome regulation in order to lower the cost of new construction, bureaucracies like BAHFA shrug at residents’ regulatory burdens. They seek to take more money from existing homeowners in Cloverdale to the tune of at least $200 annually to fund dense housing developments that lead to a whole host of well-documented problems, including traffic congestion and limited parking spaces.

Enough bonds already; especially since results never seem to be presented, just lots of future plans and activity.

I look forward to hearing about how existing bond money can be used to help firsttime home buyers qualify for their own house. One of my daughters scrimped and saved for 20 years, just to buy her first house in Cloverdale. This is the way to go; people working hard and feeling good about buying their first home. We should avoid making habitual offerings of free or subsidized housing based on government largesse, a cost which is put on the backs of existing homeowners.

Thank you.

On April 10, the City Council considered a proposed ordinance to repeal and replace Chapter 5.36 to adopt new rent control regulations for mobile home parks in Cloverdale. Following public comment and discussion, the City Council provided direction to staff regarding two specific changes to the proposed ordinance.

Specifically, the Council decreased the maximum amount by which a park owner can increase the rent when an in-place sale of a mobile home occurs to a resident-to-be or current resident from ten percent (10%) to five percent (5%). No other edits were made as part of the Council’s introduction of the ordinance.

If the Council conducts the second reading and adoption of the ordinance, it will go into effect in thirty (30) days.

AN ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CLOVERDALE REPEALING AND REPLACING CLOVERDALE MUNICIPAL CODE CHAPTER 5.36,

RENT CONTROL IN MOBILE HOME PARKS, TO ADOPT NEW RENT CONTROL REGULATIONS FOR MOBILE HOME PARKS.

WHEREAS, the State of California recognizes, by the adoption of special legislation regulating tenancies of mobile home owners in mobile home parks, that there is a significant difference between homeowners in mobile home parks and other dwelling units; and

WHEREAS, the State likewise recognizes that homeowners in mobile home parks, unlike apartment tenants or residents of other rental housing stock, are in the unique position of having made a substantial investment in a residence, the space for which is rented or leased and not owned; and
WHEREAS, the City of Cloverdale has three (3) mobile home parks with a total of approximately one hundred eight three (183) spaces located within the City limits; and WHEREAS, mobile home spaces represent a significant portion of the affordable housing supply within the City; and
WHEREAS, mobile home parks are an important affordable housing resource for the Cloverdale’s seniors and low-income households; and

WHEREAS, it is often difficult to move mobile homes from one park to another due to the age and condition of some mobile homes and the limited availability of vacant spaces in mobile home parks; and

WHEREAS, it is often costly to move a mobile home and, in many instances, moving a mobile home requires separation of the mobile home from its appurtenances, which may create severe damage and depreciation in value to the mobile home; and WHEREAS, the City Council desires to adopt a new comprehensive mobile home rent control ordinance to help preserve mobile home parks as an affordable housing option and prevent displacement of mobile home park residents, many of whom are seniors, low-income, or otherwise potentially vulnerable to homelessness if displaced; and WHEREAS, the proposed ordinance would protect mobile home park residents from significant rent increases while ensuring that owners of mobile home parks continue to make a fair and reasonable return; and
WHEREAS, the Ordinance is intended to apply to all permanent residents of mobile home parks, regardless of whether the structure in which they reside meets the technical definition of a mobile home; and
51 WHEREAS, the City Council desires to adopt this Ordinance in order to protect and preserve the public health and welfare.

NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Cloverdale does ordain as follows:

Section 1. Recitals.

The above recitals are true and correct and are incorporated into this Ordinance by reference.

Section 2. Repeal and Replace Chapter 5.36.

Chapter 5.36, Rent Control in Mobile Home Parks, of the Cloverdale Municipal Code, is hereby repealed and replaced in its entirety to read as set forth in Exhibit A, attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

Section 3. CEQA.

The City Council hereby finds the approval of this Ordinance is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§ 21000 et seq., “CEQA,” and 14 Cal.

Code Reg. §§ 15000 et seq., “CEQA Guidelines”) under Section 15061(b)(3) of the CEQA Guidelines. This Ordinance established regulations prohibiting excessive space rent increases in mobile home parks. No new development will result from the proposed action, no new use is authorized, and there is no change in the regulations governing the physical development of mobile home parks. Accordingly, it can be seen with certainty that no impact on the physical environment will result.

Section 4. Severability.

If any section, sentence, clause, or phrase of this Ordinance or the application thereof to any entity, person, or circumstance is held for any reason to be invalid or unconstitutional, such invalidity or unconstitutionality shall not affect other provisions or applications of this Ordinance which can be given effect without the invalid provision or application, and to this end the provisions of this Ordinance are severable. The City Council hereby declares that it would have adopted this Ordinance and each section, sentence, clause, or phrase thereof, irrespective of the fact that anyone or more section, subsections, sentences, clauses, or phrases be declared invalid or unconstitutional.

Section 5. Effective Date.

The City Clerk shall certify to the adoption of this Ordinance and shall cause the same or a summary thereof to be published as required by law. This Ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days after its adoption.
52 INTRODUCED by the City Council of the City of Cloverdale on the 24th day of April 2024 and adopted on May 8, 2024, by the following roll call vote:

5.36.010 Findings and purpose.

A. Mobile Home Spaces represent a significant portion of the affordable housing supply within the City of Cloverdale. This ordinance is a comprehensive Mobile Home rent control ordinance intended to help preserve Mobile Home Parks as an affordable housing option and prevent displacement of Mobile Home Park residents, many of whom are seniors, low income or otherwise potentially vulnerable to Homelessness if displaced.

B. The purpose of this Chapter is to establish an efficient method for regulating Space rent increases in Mobile Home Parks in order to protect Mobile Home Owners from arbitrary, capricious or unreasonable rent adjustments while enabling Park Owners and/or operators and investors to earn a fair and reasonable return on their investment in their Mobile Home Parks.

C. The Ordinance provides Space rent stabilization protection to residents of recreational vehicles occupying Spaces in Mobile Home Parks for more than nine (9) months in recognition of the special status conferred by the recreational vehicle Park occupancy laws to such long-term residencies under Civil Code Section 799.45(b) and their similarity to Mobile Home tenancies.

1. The amount of the Rent increase both in dollars and as a percentage of existing rent and documentation supporting the level of increase desired, including at a minimum: a summary of the unavoidable increases in maintenance and operating expenses; a statement of the cost, nature, amortization, and allocation among Mobile Home Spaces of any substantial rehabilitation or capital improvement; a summary of the Owner's net operating income of the preceding twenty-four (24) months and other relevant information that supports the level of rent increase desired;

documentation supporting the level of increase desired, including at a minimum: a summary of the unavoidable increases in maintenance and operating expenses; a statement of the cost, nature, amortization, and allocation among Mobile Home Spaces of any substantial rehabilitation or capital improvement; a summary of the increased cost of the Owner's debt service and the date and nature of the sale or refinancing transaction; a summary of the Owner's net operating income of the preceding twenty-four (24) months and other relevant information that supports the level of rent increase desired. These documents will be available for inspection at City Hall; 59 6. If applicable, notification that the proposed Rent increase exceeds three hundred percent (300%) of the change in the CPI, and that arbitration is deemed automatically required by the provisions of this Chapter, without any need to file an arbitration petition. Such notices shall bear the following language: "Arbitration of the proposed increase is automatically required in this matter by operation of law." Erroneous use of this notice shall be regarded as an irrevocable stipulation to the jurisdiction of the arbitrator.

C. An Owner failing to provide an Affected Mobile Home Owner with the information, documents, and notices required by this section shall not be entitled to collect any rent increase otherwise authorized by this Chapter from that Mobile Home Owner nor to any rent increase that might otherwise be awarded by an Arbitrator. Such failure by the Owner shall be a defense in any action brought by the Mobile Home Owner to recover possession of a Mobile Home Space or to collect any rent increase from the resident.

5.36.080 Special Rent Increases – Rent Dispute Process
A. Mandatory meet-and-confer meeting. Whenever the Park Owner desires to increase the Rent by more than the amount authorized by Section 5.36.060, the Residents and Park Owner must meet and confer with each other (or their authorized representatives) at a location in the Mobile Home Park or otherwise accessible within the City of Cloverdale. Such meeting shall occur at least seven (7) days, but not longer than fourteen (14) after the notice is sent. Written notice of the time, place and date of the meeting should be provided by the Park Owner to all affected Mobile Home Owners at least seventy-two (72) hours before the meeting. If the Park Owners or residents fail to agree on the time, place and date of the hearing within seventy-two (72) hours of when the rent increase notice is sent, the Park Owner shall notify the Administrator, who shall set the time, date, and place of the meeting.

B. At the meeting, representatives of the parties should exchange documentary evidence that the parties in good faith then know will be used to support their respective positions in an arbitration and discuss the issues in dispute. In the case of a Park Owner, all financial data upon which any proposed increase is claimed shall be supplied to resident representatives at the time of the meet-and-confer meeting. The Arbitrator may deny an application based on the applicant's failure to participate in good faith in the meet and confer process.

C. The Park Owner has a duty to provide adequate information to the residents regarding the Park's net operating income sufficient for a reasonably sophisticated inquiry into the financial status of the Park Owner's business. This will consist of true and accurate book entries or other competent evidence of gross income including, but not limited to, gross rents, interest upon security and cleaning deposits, income from ancillary services (submetering of utilities, laundry facilities, etc.) and true and accurate book entries or other competent evidence of operating expenses including, but not limited to, license fees, property taxes, utilities, insurance, management expenses, landlord performed labor, building and grounds maintenance, legal fees, auto and truck expenses, employee benefits, permits, refuse removal, ground lease payments, and similar additional expenses. 60 D. If discussions between Park Owner and Residents do not resolve the dispute between them, the Residents or their representative may file with the Administrator a petition for Arbitration a copy of the notice of rent increase, within thirty (30) days after the date upon which the rent increase notice is received. The petition must be signed by individuals representing greater than fifty percent (51%) of all Mobile Home Spaces affected by the proposed Rent Increase.

Upon the filing of a petition, the Rent increase is not effective and may not be collected until and to the extent it is awarded by an arbitrator or until the petition is abandoned. As used herein, the term "abandoned" refers to lack of prosecution of the arbitration by the Mobile Home residents' representative(s). An automatic arbitration based upon a three hundred percent (300%) CPI increase will not require active resident prosecution, although such prosecution will not be prohibited. The term "prosecution" refers to actively pursuing necessary steps toward preparing the residents' case for the arbitration hearing.

E. Contents of Petition for Arbitration.

1. The petition for arbitration shall set forth the total number of affected rented Spaces in the Mobile Home Park, shall identify the Space occupied by each resident and shall state the date upon which the notice of the rent increase was received by the resident(s).

2. After obtaining the required signatures, the resident(s) shall deliver the petition or mail it by registered or certified mail to the Administrator at Cloverdale City Hall. No petition shall be accepted unless it is accompanied by the requisite number of signatures and is received in the office of the Administrator within the required period set forth above. The Administrator shall provide a copy of the completed petition form to both parties as soon as practicable.

F. Within five (5) business days of notification of the completed petition form, or upon providing the Administrator with notice of a Rent increase of greater than three hundred percent (300%) of CPI, the Park Owner shall pay the Rent Control Arbitration Fee, if one has been established by the City Council, to the Administrator. The amount of such fee shall be an operating expense to be considered by the arbitrator during any required arbitration.

G. Information questionnaire. After the Administrator has accepted a petition for Space rent review, the Administrator may remit to the Owner and residents an information questionnaire in such form as the Administrator may prescribe. The completed information questionnaire must be returned to the Administrator at least five (5) working days prior to the date scheduled for hearing of the petition by the arbitrator. Copies of the completed information questionnaire shall be provided to the arbitrator and the opposing party.

H. A Park Owner's failure to provide the minimum information required by this Chapter or attend the hearing shall require the Administrator to suspend further proceedings under this article. This determination may also be made by the Arbitrator during the Arbitration process. The Park Owner's application for a rent increase under such circumstances shall be deemed defective, without force or effect, and deemed withdrawn. Renoticing of the increase shall be required to reinitiate an application for rent increase.

5.36.090 Special Rent Increases – Arbitration Process
61 A. Upon the receipt of a valid petition pursuant to Section 5.36.080, or notification from the Park Owner of a rent increase requiring mandatory arbitration, the Administrator shall, within ten (10) working days, assign an arbitrator. The arbitrator may, but is not required be associated with the Sonoma County Community Development Commission.

B. After the Administrator assigns an arbitrator, the arbitrator shall schedule the arbitration hearing for a date at least fifteen (15) days, but no more than thirty (30) days after the date of selection, unless the Parties agree otherwise. The arbitrator shall notify the Administrator, who shall immediately notify the Park Owner and affected Mobile Home Owners of the date, time and place of the hearing and this notice shall be served either in person or by ordinary mail.

2. The hearing need not be conducted according to technical rules relating to evidence and witnesses. The arbitrator may establish such rules and procedures regarding the conduct of the hearing, and the introduction of evidence, as long as such rules and procedures comply with this Ordinance.

3. The arbitrator shall, within fourteen (14) days of the hearing, submit by mail a written statement of decision and the reasons for the decision to the Administrator who shall forthwith distribute by mail copies of the decision to the Owner and resident(s). The arbitrator shall determine the amount of rent increase, if any, which is reasonable based upon all the provisions of this article.
4 The arbitrator shall not allow more than one (1) rent increase per Park per twelve-month period.

7. Any procedural or jurisdictional dispute regarding the processes set forth herein may be decided by the arbitrator.

8. The legislative authority of the City Council to modify this ordinance or otherwise regulate rents in Mobile Home Parks shall not be limited or abridged by any decision of the arbitrator.

9. The Administrator shall provide administrative assistance to the arbitrator as necessary. 62 10. Failure of the Park Owner to attend the arbitration hearing, without good cause as determined by the arbitrator, shall be considered an abandonment of the rent increase.

11. Failure of the Park Owner to provide any documents reasonable requested by the Mobile Home Park Owners, or their representatives as part of this arbitration hearing, may be considered by the arbitrator in making a decision.

5.36.100 Standards of Review for Determining a Fair Return The Park Owner shall be entitled to charge rents sufficient to earn a fair and reasonable return. It is presumed that a Park’s Net Operating Income, as defined in Section 5.36.110, in the calendar year immediately proceeding the enactment of this Ordinance (2023) provide a fair and reasonable return to the Park Owner. Furthermore, it is presumed that Net Operating Income adjusted by the percentage increase in the CPI since 2023 will continue to provided a fair and reasonable return to the park owner. The Park Owner may rebut this presumption by demonstrating unusual expenses or other circumstances during the 2023, or subsequent years.

In evaluating the Space increase proposed by the Owner, the following factors may be considered in evaluating whether the increase in the rent Proposed by the Owner is justified:

A. Beneficial increases in maintenance and operating expenses, including but not limited to the reasonable value of the Owner's labor and any increased costs for services provided by a public agency, public utility, or quasi-public agency or utility; B. The substantial rehabilitation or the addition of capital improvements, including the reasonable value of the Owner's labor, as long as such rehabilitation or improvement has been completed and is:

1. Distinguished from ordinary repair or maintenance,

2. For the primary benefit, use and enjoyment of the residents,

3. Permanently fixed in place or relatively immobile and dedicated to the use of the property,

4. Not one for which a "use fee" or other charge is imposed on residents for its use,

5. Cost-factored and amortized over the good faith estimate of the remaining useful life of the rehabilitation or improvement, and

6. Does not constitute maintenance of the infrastructure of gas or electrical lines within the Mobile Home Park for which the public utility has permitted the ParkOwner a special premium with the intent that it be used to replace or otherwise maintain the system within the Mobile Home Park;
C. The rental history of the Space or the Park of which it is a part, including:

1. The presence, or absence of past increases,

2. The frequency of past rent increases, and

3. The occupancy rate of the Park in comparison to comparable Parks in the same general area;
63 D. The physical condition of the Mobile Home Space or Park of which it is a part, including the quantity and quality of maintenance and repairs performed during the preceding twelve (12) months;
E. Any increase or reduction of housing services since the last rent increase; F. Existing Space rents for comparable Spaces in comparable Parks; G. Other financial information which the Owner is willing to provide; H. Any costs incurred as a result of a natural disaster and only to the extent such costs have not been reimbursed to the Owner by insurance or other sources; and I. Any increase or decrease in the net operating income for the Park.

5.36.110 Net Operating income
In evaluating a Space rent increase sought by an Owner to maintain the Owner's net operating income from the Park, the following definitions and provisions shall apply:

A. "Net operating income" of a Mobile Home Park means the gross income of the Park less the operating expenses of the Park.

B. "Gross income" means the sum of the following:

1. Gross Space rents, computed as gross Space rental income at one hundred percent (100%) occupancy (including any Spaced exempt from the Ordinance); plus

2. Other income generated as a result of the operation of the Park, including, but not limited to, fees for services actually rendered; plus

3. Revenue received by the Park Owner from the sale of utilities to Park residents where such utilities are billed individually to the Park residents by the Park Owner. This revenue shall equal the total cost of the utilities to the residents minus the amount paid by the Park Owner for such utilities to the utility provider; minus

4. Uncollected Space rents due to vacancy and bad debts to the extent that the same are beyond the Park Owner's control. Uncollected Space rents in excess of three percent (3%) of gross Space rent shall be presumed to be unreasonable unless established otherwise and shall not be included in computing gross income. Where uncollected Space rents must be estimated, the average of the preceding three (3) years' experience shall be used.

C. "Operating expenses" means:

1. Real property taxes and assessments;

2. Utility costs to the extent that they are included in Space rent;

3. Management expenses including the compensation of administrative personnel, including the value of any Mobile Home Space offered as part of compensation for such services, reasonable and necessary advertising to ensure occupancy only, legal and accounting services as permitted herein, and other managerial expenses. Management expenses are 64 presumed to be not more than five percent (5%) of gross income, unless established otherwise;

4. Normal repair and maintenance expenses for the grounds and common facilities including but not limited to landscaping, cleaning and repair of equipment and facilities;

5. Owner-performed labor in operating or maintaining the Park. In addition to the management expenses listed above, where the Owner performs managerial or maintenance services which are uncompensated, the Owner may include the reasonable value of such services. Owner-performed labor shall be limited to five percent (5%) of gross income unless the arbitrator finds that such a limitation would be substantially unfair in a given case. A Park Owner must devote substantially all of their time, that is, at least forty (40) hours per week, to performing such managerial or maintenance services in order to warrant the full five percent (5%) credit of their labor as an operating expense.

No credit for such services shall be authorized unless a Park Owner documents the hours utilized in performing such services and the nature of the services provided;

6. Operating supplies such as janitorial supplies, gardening supplies, stationery, and so forth;

7. Insurance premiums prorated over the life of the policy;

8. Other taxes, fees and permits.

9. Capital improvement costs. Expenditures for capital improvements to upgrade existing facilities shall be an allowable operating expense only if the Park Owner has:
i. Established upon written verification, or by other competent evidence to the satisfaction of the arbitrator, that the cost of the capital improvements provided to the Park residents, for their general use, are factually correct as claimed, ii. Such capital improvements are wholly compensable to the Park Owner upon appropriate amortization of their cost, together with a reasonable return upon the capital improvement investment made by the Park Owner,
iii. Any capital improvement expenses shall be amortized over the reasonable life of the improvement or such other period as may be deemed reasonable by the arbitrator under the circumstances. In the event that the capital improvement expenditure is necessitated as a result of an accident, disaster or other event for which the Park Owner received insurance benefits, only those capital improvement costs otherwise allowable exceeding the insurance benefits may be calculated as operating expenses. d. Operating expenses shall not include the following:

1. Mortgage principal, interest payments or other debt service expenses;

2. Depreciation;

3. Any expense for which the Park Owner is reimbursed;

4. Expenses attributable to unreasonable delays in performing necessary maintenance or repair work or the failure to complete necessary replacements.

5. Political contributions and payments to organizations which are substantially devoted to legislative lobbying purposes;

6. Penalties, fees or interest assessed or awarded for violation of any provision of this Chapter or other provisions of law;

7. Attorneys' fees and costs, except printing costs and documentation as required by this Chapter, incurred in proceedings before an arbitrator or in connection with legal 65 proceedings challenging the decision of an arbitrator or the validity or applicability of this article.
e. All operating expenses must be reasonable. Whenever a particular expense exceeds the normal industry or other comparable standard, or increases significantly in a particular year, the Park Owner shall bear the burden of proving the reasonableness of the expense, To the extent that an arbitrator finds any such expense to be unreasonable, the arbitrator shall adjust the expense to reflect the normal industry or other comparable standard.

5.36.120 Implementation of Special Rent Increase.

A. During the pendency of the arbitration hearing, the Park Owner may implement the amount of Rent increase authorized by Section 5.36.060.

B. If a final decision by an arbitrator finds that the Park Owner is entitled to a rent increase above the amount otherwise allowed by Section 5.36.060, the Park Owner may implement such rent increase upon providing required notice to all affected Mobile Home Park Owners.

Such increase may be in addition to the rent increase imposed pursuant to Subsection A, above.

5.36.130 Disclosures to Prospective Mobile Home Owner.

Park Owner shall disclose to each prospective Mobile Home Owner the proposed Base Rent for the Mobile Home Space, any rental agreement options, provide each prospective Mobile Home Owner a copy of this Chapter, and that if the prospective Mobile Home Owner signs a lease with a term of more than one year, that lease will be exempt from rent stabilization, in addition to any notice required by the Mobile Home Residency Law or any other applicable state law. The Park Owner shall give the required disclosure and provide a copy of this Chapter to the prospective Mobile Home Owner at the time that the Park Owner, or Owner’s representative, receives the prospective Mobile Home Owner’s application for tenancy. The Park Owner shall obtain a signature of the prospective Mobile Home Owner on the disclosure form acknowledging receipt of the disclosures. The Park Owner shall retain the signed disclosure form throughout the entire tenancy of the Mobile Home Owner. This signed form shall be made available to the Administrator upon reasonable written notice.

5.36.140 Translated Notices
Any notices required to be provided by the Park Owner pursuant to this chapter shall be provided in both English and Spanish.

5.36.150 Refusal of Mobile Home Owner to pay illegal rent.

It shall be unlawful for a Park Owner to demand, accept, receive, or retain Rent in excess of the amounts authorized by this Article. An affected Mobile Home Owner may refuse to pay any Rent in excess of the maximum Rent permitted by this Chapter. The fact that such unpaid Rent is 66 in excess of the maximum Rent shall be a defense in any action brought to recover possession of a Mobile Home Space for nonpayment of Rent or to collect the illegal Rent.

5.36.160 Retaliation Prohibited
A. It shall be unlawful for a Park Owner to evict a Mobile Home Owner, or otherwise retaliate against a resident or prospective resident for the resident's or prospective resident’s assertion or exercise of rights under this Changer in any manner, including:

2. Engaging in any form of harassment that causes the Mobile Home Owner to quit the premises.

4. Unlawfully increasing Rent.

5. Imposing or increasing a security deposit or other charge payable by the Mobile Home Owner
B. The residents have a right to organize a resident's association without hindrance from the Park Owner to exercise the rights provided under this Ordinance.

5.36.170 Rent stabilization administration fees.

All or any portion of the costs to administer this Chapter may be collected by the imposition of an annual rent stabilization administration fee, which may be established by the City Council by resolution. The fee, if any, shall be chargeable against every Mobile Home Space in the City subject to rent stabilization. The Park Owner shall remit any adopted rent stabilization administration fee by September 1 of each year. The fee is intended to cover the full cost of administration and the fee assessment amount may be amended from time to time by resolution of the City Council. The City Council may adopt by resolution additional fees as necessary to reimburse the City for its costs to implement this Chapter, and may allocate specified charges to the respective Parties.

5.36.180 Violation
Every person who violates any provision of this chapter is guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be subject to the provisions of Title I of this code.

• Unassigned fund balance - is the residual classification for the government’s general fund and includes all spendable amounts not contained in the other classifications. ________________________________________________________________________________________ Summary:

The City Council has a General Fund Surplus Policy which dictates how any surplus derived from the Annual Financial Audit should be dedicated and the priority order. Based on the criteria in the policy the first two steps were taken with the surplus of $42,000 from the 2022-23 Audit.

1. Reserve Policy and General Fund Surplus Policy
71 RESERVE POLICY
The purpose of this policy is to provide guidance on maintaining reasonable levels of reserves in the City’s General, Water, and Sewer Funds.

The General Fund Balance in the City’s financial statements is comprised of five categories:
 Non-spendable Funds (non-cash items such as prepaid expenses and inventories)  Restricted Funds (externally enforceable legal restrictions)  Committed Funds (limitations imposed by the City Council)  Assigned Funds (intended to provide a source of funds for various needs)  Unassigned Funds (net resources in excess of what is classified in one of the other categories) This policy incorporates all previous City Council policies regarding General Fund reserves and the requirements of Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 54. It will help guide current and future allocation levels to various reserve categories in the General Fund by setting out specific target amounts for the Committed and Assigned categories of the General Fund balance.

Committed Fund Balances
Emergency Reserve Fund: The City of Cloverdale shall maintain an Emergency Reserve Fund for any of the unforeseen and non-recurring events listed below that create significant financial difficulty for the City:
a. Sudden and unexpected significant facility or infrastructure failures that pose a safety risk to staff or the community;

c. Unanticipated expenditures or reduction in revenues as a result of legislative changes from State/Federal governments in the current fiscal year;
d. Acts of Terrorism declared by the Governor or the President of the United States; e. Acts of Nature which are infrequent in occurrence;
f. Other catastrophic events which are infrequent in occurrence.

The target maximum reserve amount to be carried in the Emergency Reserve account shall be equal 8% of annual General Fund expenditures.

Emergency Reserve Funds shall only be used upon approval of the City Council by a simple majority vote.
72 Contingency Reserve Fund: The City of Cloverdale shall maintain a Contingency Reserve Fund equal to 17% of expenditures in the General Fund. For purposes of this section, expenditures shall include transfers out but not anticipated litigation expenses, reimbursed developer expenses or routine capital outlays which are all discretionary. Reserves of 17% are considered by to be a good level at which to maintain the City's credit worthiness, based on widely used and accepted best practices. The purposed of these reserves is to provide for:
a. Cash flow requirements
b. Legal requirements as part of debt financing
c. Economic uncertainties including downturns in the local or national economy Assigned Fund Balances

Additional increments of 10% will be set aside each year until 50% of the non-current compensated balance is reached.
73 GENERAL FUND SURPLUS POLICY
It is in the best interest of the citizens of the City of Cloverdale who rely upon the City for public access and services that the City should prioritize allocation of General Fund resources towards critical, core municipal services that are in alignment with the City Council’s goals.

This policy shall be defined by the General Fund’s Fiscal Year audited, final results and shall begin with Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2016. Allocation of any annual General Fund surplus shall be made in the following priority order:
1) 30% of any surplus, up to $100,000 per year, shall be set aside into the Emergency Reserve Fund, up to the target level of 8% of annual General Fund expenditures. 2) Any remaining General Fund surpluses shall first be used to maintain the Contingency Reserve, up to the target level of 17% of annual General Fund expenditures. 3) Any remaining surplus in excess of the amounts stated above shall be allocated as follows:
a. Equipment Replacement Reserves. The annual contribution to these reserves will be equal to the annual depreciation expense plus 5% to provide sufficient replacement funding for equipment capital items costing greater than $10,000.
