S,Cferk-orig. From: Penny �` Wil GYM'_/ -_� Re.: Measure D - Creekside Lease , El With the passage of Measure D, park owners and tenants were encouraged to work together for long term leases . Unfortunately the new ordinance is very vague on the process to bring about these leases . one requirement is that if 2/3 of the tenants agree to a lease, the entire park is out from under rent control . QUESTION: How is the number of tenants signing a lease verified? Should the new ordinance spell out a process? It appears from the information attached that at Creekside, several leases/amendments have been under consideration recently. There appears to be some confusion as to who signed which lease . It also appears that the "Homeowners Assn.. " has agreed to some revisions . QUESTION: Should we have a process to clarify presentation/acceptance of lease agreements? What stipulations should be required to give authority to a Homeowners Assn. to sign for the majority? Should all tenants be members? I don' t believe this is the case at Creekside . Lastly, should the ordinance establish a process for the pass-through of expenses? I 'm requesting that the Council direct staff to clarify the above issues . This is the first application I 'm aware of under the new ordinance . I think it is extremely important to establish a process which is equitable to all parties . cc: John Roger RECEIVED JA% 30 tga9 OTr CLERK SAN LU150MSPO C" s Mobilohe"Coimno.iq 3961 SOUTH HIGULRA • SAN LUIS OBISPO • CALIFORNIA 93401 • PHONE 805/543-7113 Board of Directors Creekside Homeowners Association 3960 South Higuera Street San Luis Obispo, California 93401 Re: ILZTTER OF UNDERSTANDING Dear Board Members: This is a letter of understanding clarifying an interpretation of the lease executed by residents at Creekside Mobilehome Park. Pursuant to Paragraph 16 of the lease, the Board of Directors of the Creekside Homeowners Association shall meet and confer in good faith with Creekside Mobilehome Park ("Park") to resolve disputes regarding calculation of rent increases allowed under the lease. The. Park has submitted to you its calculations for rent increases allowed pursuant to Paragraph 6 of the lease. You raised a question regarding the calculation of rent increases resulting from increased water rates. After Park representatives met with you, the following was resolved. Increased expenses resulting from increased water rates are permitted as a pass-througn expense, pursuant to Parsa_aph a despite the language in Paragraph 9 which states that water will be included in the base rent for a maximum monthly allowance of 800 cubic feet. Charges for water consumed in excess of 800 cubic feet are listed as a separate itemized amount pursuant to Paragarph 9 . Increases in expenses resulting from an increased water rate for water used in common areas and for water supplied to tenants and included in base rent up to 800 cubic feet are allowed as a pass- through pursuant to Paragraph 6. The Park has indicated that this was the intention of the agreement when originally negotiated, and that it will not accept the leases signed by- residents unless this interpretation is clarified. With respect to the method of calculating allowable rent increases' resulting from expense pass-throughs pursuant to Paragraph 6, a clarification to the lease was required. Paragraph 6 states that CPI increases, calculated under Section 4 , shall be deducted from allowable expense pass-throughs. The question was Board of Directors I Creekside Homeowners Association Page Two , raised as to which period of time CPI increases would be calculated. It was resolved that the CPI increases recieved by the park shall be calculated for the time period between the date of the last increase in the relevant expense and the date of the most recent increase in the relevant expense . By way of example, if the last increase in water rates occurred in June of 1983, and the most current increase in water rates occurred in June of 1988, then the Park would be allowed an expense pass-through for the increase in water rates, less the percentage change in the rents calculated for the period from. June 1983 to June 1988 . With respect to new expenses that did not previously exist, there would be no deduction for CPI . I appreciate the Board' s cooperation in helping to resolve these matters, and the Park looks forward to a good relationship in the future under the terms of the lease . Very truly yours, CREEKCIDE MOBILEHOMEE DAR By: The aforementioned letter of understanding is hereby agreed to .

For Purposes of clarity, the Lessor is referred to as Park and the Lessee as Resident. The California Civil Code Section 798.17 authorizes this notice; this lease will be exempt from any ordinance, rule, regulation or initiative measure adopted by any local government entity, which establishes a maximum amount that the Park may charge Resident for rent during the term of this lease. Park and Resident recognize the Creekside Homeowners Association as the Resident representative on specified issues described herein. The Association will be formed and exist pursuant to Section 798 of the California Civil Code. 1. DESCRIPTION OF THE PREMISES AND FACILITIES: Park leases to the Resident and Resident hires from Park the space indicated above within above mobile home park which is to be used as a residence by Resident and for no other purpose during the term of this lease. Park and Resident may mutually agree on other purposes. Park is responsible for providing and maintaining the existing services and physical improvements in good working order and condition. The following is a description of the physical facilities, which Park will continue to provide: A. Recreation building: features include meeting room, kitchen, card room (ping pong) and pool room, including furniture and equipment. B. Heated swimming pool and jacuzzi, including furniture. C. Common Areas: includes streets, guest parking, street lights, park area, lawn areas, driveways and perimeter fences. D. Laundry Facilities. E. All underground utilities but not limited to: gas system, electric system, sewer system, water system, fire hydrants and associated water valves and cable TV. F. Park shall promptly restore any of the services articulated in paragraphs A, B, C, D and E above in the event of a failure. In addition, Resident shall have the right to use common area facilities including swimming pool, clubhouse and laundry facilities, at reasonable hours as may be posted at the facility. Also, subject to availability, the Park provides storage facility in the Park for Residents. Use of this storage area is governed by a separate agreement and fees for such use are not included in space rent. 2. TERM: The term of this Lease shall be for the period indicated in the space provided below, commencing on the first day of January 1988 and ending: Initial December 31, 1993 December 31, 1998 The term of this Lease may be extended pursuant to the AUTOMATIC RENEWAL PROVISIONS in Section 25 of this Lease. The Lease Anniversary Date will be January 1st of each year during the term of this Lease, including any extensions per section 25. Beginning on Resident's 1989 Lease Anniversary Date, the then current rent will be adjusted each year based on increases or decreases in the Consumer Price Index and the pass throughs noted in sections 4 through 8 below. 3. RENT: Resident shall pAy to Park S 204. 32 per calendar month as the new base rent. The rent shall be payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month commencing on the first day of October, 1988. All rent shall be paid at the office located within the Park without any offset or deduction whatsoever. Should the rent not be paid by the 5th day of the month, a late charge of 510.00 may be charged to cover Park's costs for additional accounting, office and collection expenses. Additionally, a handling charge of 55.00 may be required for all checks returned by the bank due to insufficient funds in the Resident's account or for any other reason. This provision shall not be construed as a waiver by the Park should the Park fail to enforce any provision hereof after any default on the part of the Resident. Furthermore, the acceptance of payments shall not constitute a waiver of any breach of rule, regulation or any covenant of this Lease agreement or Park regulations, nor shall such acceptance affect any notice, demand or suit hereunder, where the Resident is already in default. It is the intent of this Lease to provide a formula that allows rents to maintain a level that keeps up with inflation without putting undue financial burden on the Resident. Should rent be increased in excess of the percentage increase of the Social Security Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) benefits, Park will at its sole option, upon individual application by those persons receiving Social Security benefits or eligible for Section 8 Rental Assistance on a case by case basis, extend hardship consideration based upon evidence of such need. c 4. ADJUSTMENT OF REKI BY CONSUMER PRICE INDEX: Each year on the Lease Anniversary date, the then current rent will be adjusted by the following formula: 1004 of the Consumer Price Index (CPI) from 0% to 5% and 75% of any increase over 5%. If the rent in effect on January 1, 1988, for example, was S200.00 and the CPI increase was 7%, this portion of Resident's rent adjustment would be 5% plus 1.5% (75`>. of the excess 2%), or 6.5%--making a total rent of S213.00 in this inscancc. Fhe CPI used will be the one published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics, All Urban Consumers, Los Angeles, Anaheim and Riverside (1982-84=100). On the Lease Anniversary dates fur 1989, 1090, 199L and L992 there will be an additional rent adjustment equal to 2% of the rent in effect on .January 1, 1988. If that rent was $200.00, an additional S4,00 would be added to the rent. In the example above, the rent on January 1, L9H9 would then be 5217,00. In calculating the additional 21, the L9,ii8 base figure would be used, limiting the increase in the example above to S4.U0 in each of the years ,epccified. Should the CPI (not including Chu additional e . facturi adjustment allowed under this section exceed 8%, the full increase will be permitted n, lung as the percentage of increase above 8% does not exceed the percentage increase of the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for Social Security benefits during the most recent COLA period. In other words, if the CPI rent adjustment allowed by this section were 10% and the most recent increase in COLA were 8 1/24 the maxitnm: rent increase would be .S 1/Ta plus, if applicable, the additional 2%. Decreases in the CPI will result in rent decreases using the same formula for rent increases provided in this section. In the event of a national. catastrophic economic event the parties may mutually agree to renegotiate this lease. The percentage increase or decrease in the CPI will be calculated by comparing the most recent month of August with the CP1 for Chu August of the previous year. 1f the Index is discounted or revised during the term of this Aginuumvnt, such other governmental indices or computations with which it is replaced shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as would be obtained if the index had not been discounted or revised. In the event a local San Luis Uhisp o index were to be established by the Bureau of labor Statistics, Resident and Park may mutually agree to amend this section. 5. ADJUSTMENT OF RENT FOR REAL PROPERTY TAXES: If the cost of property taxes increases or decreases by an amount equal to or less than the actual percentage increase or decrease in the CPI, which is designated in section 4 above, no amount will be added to the current rent. To determine if property taxes have increased, the most recent property tax bill actually received by Lessor will be used (i .e., it will be compared with the property tax bill for the immediately preceding property tax year to determine if property taxes have increased from one property tax year to the other.) If the cost of property taxes increases or decreases by an amount greater than the actual percentage increase or decrease i.n the CPI , then the rent shall be adjusted based on the increase or decrease in the Park's property CaL\es. This adjustment shall be prorated equally to each space. For example, if real property taxes increase by S2=00 in excess of the amount allowed by the above CPI limitation, and if there aro 2Pn spaces in the park, each space would he charged 51.00 additional rent for the following lease year. Property taxes are defined as all general and special real estate taxes; personal property taxes, bonds, fees charges and surcharges and assessments or ether charges made in lieu of real property taxes (whether actually paid or unpaid at tihe time of Cho rrnt increose.) levied upon or payable in connection with the land, fixtures and improvumencs cvnstituti.an 1-n nubilv!hoMu park. They also include any tax or excise on rents or any other tax, (however it may by descri.hvd, which is levied or assessed against the Park as direct substitution, in whole or in part, fear any real pruperty LONUS. 6. ADJUSTMENT OF Rm FOR (MVERNMENT SERVICES AND IMPROVEMENTS: Examples of such items are utilities, lire prutccCiuu, parrnwdic s ;viers a:;d ,Milt';' services and new or changed services or improvements. Resident's rent will also be incrvasvd , r dccl—vas,d because of increases or decruases in existing, the requirement for new or changed, improvements, services or ices charged to the Park or required by government bodies or others. Increase or decreases under this sccci.un will he billed separately as additional rent on your monthly rent statement so that the CPI Increases in section 4 herein do not apply. Any added cost incurred by the Park for improvements shall be reimbursed by tho Resident Co the Park on a prorated basis or equal allocation for each space ab provided under uninsured IOSSUS in ::ten ons MY and 7(b). If the cost of government .services and improvements increases or decreahsus by an amount equal to or less than the actual percentage increase in the CPI referred L in ni.Ctiun llblvc. email no IUIb"Uniwi I I he added CO oi' subtracted from the rent. . AIMUSTYENT OF RIiVsT FOR (JNIXSURW IsSSES: I f LK Park Ila, suf fercd a property loss not actually compensated by insurance and not caused by Uho torti,us conduct of Park or its agents or employees, the Park may increase rent in addition to ulh,•r adiusumun Cx to runt provlcleu herein, Any increase in rent based on uninsured losses shall be calculated as follows: (a) The uninsured Loss shal I be spread over a number of years based on the amount of the loss. The number of years shall be comlwtcd in nec,rd:urcc with the following schedule: UNINSURED LUSS YEARS 0 -S 5,000 - .. ,— 1 0 - 1.0,000 3 0 - 50,000 8 U - i 50HU) LU 575,000 and .Ner 15 > 06/88 (b) the' uninsured loss shall be divided by the number of years in the schedule set forth above and the quotient of that computation shall be divided by the total number of spaces in the Park, which quotient shall in turn be divided by 12, and the total shall reflect the dollar increase in the monthly rent payment. (c) The uninsured loss is defined as the total restored to "prior design and function condition" repair or replacement of any property loss for which the Park is not actually compensated by insurance. In addition, if the Park finances repair and replacement of such uninsured losses, the cost of financing shall also be considered an "uninsured loss." (d) The "uninsured loss" provisions shall be applicable only to those losses not covered in section (e) below or for which there is no insurance available to the Park at competitive prices from companies rated A-X or better authorized to do business in the State of California and listed in the most recent edition of Best Key Rating Guide to Insurance. Park will use due diligence in attempting to locate such insurance. Resident shall not be subject to any increases in rent as a result of any insured losses. (e) Park will maintain subject to availability as provided in section (d) above the following insurance coverage for the benefit of Creekside: Basic Park Package: *Broad form and Comprehensive General Liability. *Property Coverage--All Risk/Replacement Cost excluding flood and earthquake. *Flood and Earthquake (DIC). Difference in Conditions Policy including earthquake and flood with S1,000,000 stop loss limit on property and loss of rents. The property coverage will be maintained at current replacement values used for the Parks 1987 insurance policies as adjusted for inflation by the full amount of the CPI. Park will be responsible for the deductible portion of all insured losses or the first 5% or $20,000 of all uninsured losses, whichever is greater. Loss of rents is not included in losses under this section. (f) Increases under this section will be billed separately as additional rent on your monthly rent statement, so that the CPI increases in section 4 herein do not apply. Once the cost of an uninsured loss has been completely recovered from Resident by payment of increased rents, the additional rent charged for that uninsured loss will be discontinued. Uninsured losses are not subject to prior approval by Resident(s). Park shall provide Resident information regarding any rent increase allowed under this section. (g) An example of the computation or uninsured losses is as follows: Uninsured Loss Example Assume a flood occurred during the year. If it cost the Park $31,750.00, including financing, to remove mud and rocks from streets the cost to be passed through to the Residents would be calculated as follows: 531,750.00 less (5%) S1,750 - $30,000.00 S30,000.0U divided by 8 years = $3,750.00 $3,750.00 divided by 300 spaces = $12.50 $12.50 divided by 12 months = S1.04 per space (monthly share of repair cost) for 8 years (h) Insurance policies included in subsection (e) above shall be made available to residents or Creekside Homeowner's Association Board of Directors for review to assure residents that adequate coverage is maintained to minimize any uninsured losses. 8. CAPITAL IIQ ROVEMENTS ADJUSTmExT: "Capital Improvement" means those improvements in the park that materially add to the value of the property and appreciably prolong its useful life or adapt it to new uses, and which may be amortized over the useful life of the improvement provided in accordance with the Internal Revenue Code and regulations. Rent may be increased for any capital improvements made by Park, only if made in accordance with this section. The total effective cost to Park for capital improvements will be verified by a statement from Park's accountant that these are the total costs. The "cost" of capital improvements shall consist of the actual cost of the improvement, including legal and engineering fees related to said improvements, plus all interest, points, and other costs and charges relating to the borrowing of any sums by Park to make such capital improvements. All capital improvement costs over $10,000.00 shall be subject to a majority vote of Residents (one vote per space) who have signed this Lease or the approval of Creekside Homeowners Association. Charges to Residents shall be made equally to Residents int accordance with allocations provided in Sections 7(a) and 7 (b). The cost of any item of improvement up to S10,000.00 shall be at the sole expense of Park under this section. Improvements required by government under section 6 of this Lease will not be subject to a vote. Park agrees that rehabilitation and preservation of streets and driveways will occur within two years of the original date of this Lease. Park further agrees to redecorate the clubhouse, repair jacuzzi roof and rebuild the carwash. The costs of such rehabilitation and redecorating will be paid by Park and will not be passed through to Residents. 9. UTILITIES AND OTHER CHARGES: Utilities and other charges are additional rent. Resident shall pay utility charges at the prevailing rates set by the serving utility companies which the Park is authorized 'to charge Residents for the following utilities: natural gas, electricity and sewer. Water will be included in the base rent for a maximum monthly allowance of 800 cubic feet. Resident will pay monthly the prevailing rates for all water used in excess of 800 cubic feet. Should the government require metering of water, rents will be reduced on a prorata basis by averaging the Creekside historical annual metered usage for all single and double spaces over the prior three years' period. Resident will then, after the reduction in rent,,pay for the actual metered water used based upon the then prevailing commodity charge. In addition, Park shall furnish trash (3) 06/88 r.. disposal. Resident shall pay the Park directly for cable television: the charge shall not exceed the residential consumer charges of the "servicing" cable company in the San Luis Obispo area.

In the event the dispute is not resolved the Park and the Creekside Homeowners Association shall submit to arbitration using an arbitrator and the rules propounded by the American Arbitration Association.. The provision shall in no way be construed as a waiver of Park's right to enforce the agreement in unlawful detainer proceedings where the law would otherwise allow. 17. WAIVER: The waiver by Park of the failure of Park to take action in any respect by any breach of any term, covenant or condition herein contained, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition or subsequent breach of same, or any other term, covenant or condition herein contained.. The subsequent acceptance of rent by Park shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any proceeding by Resident of any term, covenant or condition of this lease other than the failure of Resident to pay the particular rent so accepted, regardless of Park's knowledge of such proceeding breach at the time of accepting such rent. 18. ASSIGNMENT AND SUBLETTING: Resident shall have neither the right nor power to sublet the leased premises, or any portion thereof, or any mobilehome located thereon and any such subleasing shall be void. Resident shall not assign this lease without first obtaining the approval of the Park.

Further, any and all buyers/transferees of the mobilehome shall execute an assignment of this Lease and, failing to do so, shall have no rights of tenancy. Because the beginning rent in this lease to existing Residents is below reasonable market levels, Park may increase rents upon the sale or other transfer of the mobilehome or subletting, should subletting ever become allowed, to a level which reflects a more reasonable value of the space, services and amenities the Park provides. This value is the New Lease Rent, which at the commencement of this Lease is S 233. 33 per month. Only one such adjustment shall occur during the initial term of this Lease.

The minimum reasonable market rents will be the New Lease Rent as adjusted annually under the terms of this Lease. Transfers to spouses, children, parents or the purchase by Resident of another mobilehome in Creekside which is to be used as their primary residence are exempt from such increase. 19. RESPONSIBILITY OF PARK: The Park shall have the responsibility to provide and maintain the physical improvements in the common facilities, described in section 1, in good working order and condition. A reduction in the level of services or facilities provided by the Park will be offset by a reduction in rents. Any reduction in service will require the approval of the majority of residents (one vote per space) or the approval of the Homeowner's Association. 20. NOTICE OF CHANGE IN RULES AND REGULATIONS: Park management shall, after having been provided by Resident with at least 10 days prior written notice of the matter to be discussed, meet and consult with Resident either individually or collectively on the following matters regarding general operations of the Park: 20.1 Amendments to the Park Community Guidelines, which are the rules and regulations attached hereto. 20.2 Standards for maintenance and construction of physical improvements in the Park. 20.3 Additions, alterations or deletions of services, equipment and physical improvements. 20.4 Rental agreements of Leases offered per California Civil code section 798.17.

TERM: The term of this lease shall be for the number of months indicated in the space provided below, commencing on the first day of January 1988 and ending not later than the 31 Stday of _DECEMBER 19-j unless extended under the AUTOMATIC RENEWAL PROVISIONS in Paragraph 7.5 of this lease. Initial Term Resident Initial 60 months _ 120 months The Lease Anniversary Date will be JANUARY _1st ,of each year during the term of this Lease, lnciudiu, any extensions per paragraph 25. Beginning on Resident's 1999 Lease Anniversary Date, the then current ren will be adjusted each year based on increases or decreases in the Consumer Price Index .and the pass through noted in paragraphs 4 through 8 below. 3. RUT: Resident shall pay to Park $ 2.07. 37_ Per calendar month as the new base rent. The ren shall be payable in advance on the first day of each calendar month commencing cin the first day o MAY , 19 88 . All rent shall be paid at the office located within the Park without any offset o deduction whatsoever.. Should the rent not be paid by the 5th day of the month, a late charge of $10.00 may b charged to cover Park's costs for additional accounting, office and collection. expens-±s. Additionally, handling charge of $5.00 may be required for all checks returned by the bank due to insu:fficient funds in th Resident's account or for any other reason. This provision shall not be construed as it waiver by the Par should the Park fail to enforce any provision hereof after any default on the part of the Resident. Furthermore, the acceptance of payments shall not constitute a waiver of any breaclu of rule, regulatlo or any covenant of this Lease agreement or Park regulations, nor shall such acceptance affe-:t any notice, deman or suit hereunder, where the Resident is already in default. It is the intent of this Lease to provide a formula that allows rents to maintain it level that keeps u with inflation without putting undue financial burden on the Resident. Should rent be Itu:rcased in excess o the percentage increase of the Social Security Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) benefits, P.3rk will at its sol option, upon individual application by those persons receiving Social Security benefits anti eligible for Sectio 8 Rental Assistance on a case by case basis, extend hardship consideration based upon evide:nt:e of such need. 4. ADJUSM ENT OF RF11T BY CONSUMER PRICE INDEX: The then current rent will be adjusted each year on th Lease Anniversary date based upon 100% of the Consumer Price Index (CFI) Increase from 016 to 5% and 75% of th increase in the CPI for that increase over 5e. For example, if the CPI increased 7%, the increase to be use �- for the rent adjustment would only be 6.5'x. The CPI which shall be used is the one publlsht,.d by the Bureau o Labor Statistics, All Urban Consumers, Los Angeles, Anaheim ar,d Riverside (1967-100). On the Lease Anniversary dates for 1989, 1990, 1991 and 1992, there will be an additional rent adjustment. This adjustment will be equal to 2% of the rent In effect for Resident on .January 1, 1988. For example, if the rent in effect for January 1, 1988, was $700.00 and the CPI increase applicable to the 1985 Lease. Anniversary adjustment was 7%, this portion of Resident's rent adjustment would be computed as follows: Since the CPI had increased by more than 5%, only 750 of the excess 7e can be used. This means that the CPI adjustment would be 6.5'6 times the $200.00 rent for n total of 5713.00. To this amount would be added S4.00 which is the January 1, 1988, S200.00 rent multiplied by 2'L,. Mien the 1990 rent ndjustment was calculated, the extra 2% would continue to be multiplied by S200.00, not the then-current rent of 5217.00. Should the CPI (not including the additional 2% factor) adjustment allowed under this section exceed 8%, the full increase will be permitted so long as the percentage of increase above 6% does not exceed the percentage increase of the Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for Social Security benefits during the most recent COLA period. In other words, if the CPI rent adjustment allowed by this section were 10% and the most recent increase in COLA were 8 1/216 the maximum rent increase would be R LM plus, if applicable, the additional 2%. Decreases in the CPI will result in rent decreases using the same formula for rent increases provided in this section. The percentage increase or decrease in the CPI will lie calculated by comparing the most recent month of August with the CPI for the August of the previous year. If the Index is discounted or revised during the term of this Agreement, such other governmental indices or computations with which It is replaced shall be used in order to obtain substantially the same result as would be obtaLncd Lr the index had not been discounted or revised. 5. ADJUSTMENT OF RENT FOR REAL PROPERTY TAXES: The rent shall also be adjusted on each Lease Anniversary date based on the increase or decrease in the. Park's property taxes. To determine if property taxes have increased, the most recent property tax bill actually received by Lessor will be used (i.e., It will be compared with the property tax bill for the immediately preceding property tax year to determine if property taxes have increased from one property tax year to the other.) If the cost of property taxes increases or decreases by an amount equal to or less than the actual percentage increase or decrease in the CPI, which is designated in paragraph 4 above, no amount will be added to the current rent. This adjustment shall be prorated equally to each space. For example, if real property taxes increase. by S200.00 in excess of the amount allowed by the above CPI limitation, and if there are 200 spaces in the Park, each space would be charged S1.00 additional rent for the following Lease year. Property taxes are defined as all general and special real estate taxes; personal property taxes, bonds, fees charges and surcharges and assessments or other charges made in lieu of real property taxes (whether actually paid or'unpaid at the time of the rent increase) levied upon or payable In connection with the land, fixtures and improvements constituting the mobilehome. Park. 11iey also Include any tax or excise on rents or any other tax, however it may be described, which is levied or assessed against the Park as direct substitution, in whole .or in part, for any real property taxes. 6. ADJUSTMENT OF RENT FOR GOVERNMENT SERVICES AND IMPROVEMENTS: Resident's rent will also he increased or decreased because of increases or decreases in existing, the requirement for new or changed, improvements, services or fees charged to the Park or required by government bodies or others_ Examples of such Items arc common area utilities,• fire protection, paramedic services and other services and new or changed services or improvements. Increase or decreases under this section will be hilled separately as additional rent on your monthly rent statement so that the CPI increases in paragraph 4 herein do not apply. Any added cost incurred by the Park for improvements shall be reimbursed by the Resident to the Park on a prorated basis or equal allocation for each space as provided under uninsured losses in paragraphs 7(a) and '7(b). If the cost of government services and improvements increases or decreases by an amount equal to or less than the actual percentage increase in the CPI referred to in paragraph 4 above, then no amount will be added to or subtracted from the rent. 7. ADJUSTMENT OF RENT FOR UNINSURED LOSSES: the Park may increase rent in addition to other adjustments to rent provided herein, provided it has suffered a property loss not actually compensated by insurance. Any increase in rent based on uninsured losses shall be calculated as follows: (a) The uninsured lees shall be spread over a number of yenra based on the amount of the lass. IIIc number of years shall be computed in accordance with the following schedule: UNINSURED LOSS YEARS 0 -S 5,000 2 0 - 10,000 l 0 - 25,000 5 0 - 50,000 8 0 - 75,000 10 575,000 and over 15 (b) the uninsured loss shall be divided by the number of years in the schedule set forth above and the quotient of that computation shall be divided by the total number of spaces In the Park, which quotient shall in turn be divided by 12, and the total shall reflect the dollar increase in the monthly rent payment.. (c) The rminsured loss is defined as the total restored to "as new condi.tLon" repair or replacement of any property 10:3s for which the Park is not actually compensated by insurance. In addition, if the Park finances repair and replacement of such uninsured losses, the cost of financing shall also be considered an "uninsured loss. " (2) _�� (d) the "uninsured loss" provisions shall be applicable,only to those losses not covered in paragraph (e) below or for which there is no insurance available to the Park at competitive prices from companies rated A-% nr better authorized to do business in the State of California and listed in the most recent edition of Best Key Rating Gude to Insurance. (e) Park will maintain subject to availability as provided in paragraph (d) above the following insurance coverage for the benefit of Creekside: Basic Park Package: *Broad form and Comprehensive Ceneral I,hability. *Property Coverage--All Risk/Replacement Cost excluding flood and earthquake. *Flood and Earthquake (DIC). Difference in Conditions Policy including earthquake and flood with $1,000,000 stop loss limit on property and loss of rents. The property coverage will be maintained at current replacement values used for the Parks 1987 Insurance policies as adjusted for inflation by the frill amount of the CPI. Park will be responsible for the first 51, or $20,000, whichever is less, of each uninsured loss, (f) Increases under this section will he billed separately ns additional rent on your monthly rent statement, so that the CPI increases in paragraph 4 Herein do not apply. Dice the cost of an uninsured loss has been completely recovered from Resident by payment or increased rents, the additional rent charged for that uninsured loss will be discontinued. Uninsured losses are not subject to prior approval by Resident(s). (g) An example of the computation or uninsured losses is as follows: Uninsured Loss Example Assume a flood occurred during the year. If it cost the Pnrk 531,750.00, including financing, to remove mud and rocks. from streets the cost to be passed through to the Residents would be calculated as follows: $31,750.00 less (5%) 51,750 = $30,000.00 530,000.00 divided by 8 years = $3,750,00 53,750.00 divided by 300 spaces - 512.50 $12.50'divided by 12 months = 51.04 per space (monthly share of repair cost) for 8 years 8. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS ADJUSTMENT: Rent may be increased for any capital improvements made by Park, it made in accordance with this paragraph. The term "capital improvements" is defined to include all items whicl the Park reports or treats for State or Federal income tax purposes as a capitalized expense. 111e total effective cost to Park for capital improvements will be verified by a statement from Park's accountant that these are the total costs.
