MOBILEHOME RENT REVIEW BOARD
FEBRUARY 13, 1986
to WELCOME/INTRODUCTIONS
Chairperson Thomas Swem called the meeting of the Mobilehome Rent
Review Board to order at 1:50 p.m., with the following in attendance:
Boardmembers: Barlow, Benson, Wheeler, Wright
Staff: Henderson
II. APPROVAL OF MINUTES
MOTION: (Wheeler, Benson) To approve the minutes as submitted, noting
typing errors needing correction. PASSED
III. AD HOC COMMITTEE ON RESOURCE CONSERVATION/METERING
Steve Henderson gave an overall view of the progress of the committee
in its meeting. It was clarified that although the committee had
focused on the metering situation at Creekside, its intention was
to develop a formula or policy for use if and when other parks were
also to meter.
Charles Long, Ward Spencer and Paul Beauvais outlined the areas of
discussion:
Allowance for water usage
Average usage figures
"Decrease in services" concept
Consistent charges (i.e., meter installation, readiness to serve fee)
and whose responsibility those would be
Rent reduction vs. submetering for usage beyond allowance
Differentials between singlewide and doublewide coaches
Allowance for common areas
The concept of metering was not objected to by the group at large,
however, several areas warrant further discussion for agreement:
methods for determining average usage, metering and rent reductions, or
submetering and billing for over average usage are the main areas.
There was suggestion that representatives from other parks ought to
be included so that their interests were represented.

IV. CREEKSIDE TENANTS' APPLICATION
Steve Henderson highlighted and commented on each grievance in
the packet. He reported on his mediation activities between
tenants and the park owner, noting that while there was
agreement on a couple of issues, there was a substantial
difference of opinion on others, and further mediation was
needed before a recommendation could be produced.
Steve commented on the fact that the Sotos, the couple who
had not received a copy of the ordinance, and signed a lease
at Creedside were negotiating for a new lease with a possible
rent reduction.
Silver City has issued a rent increase that covers the period
of the last two calendar years, as there was no increase in
the previous calendar years. The City Attorney and the
park's attorney are discussing their varying interpretations
of whether or not the ordinance allows for this.
V. ADJOURN
The meeting was adjourned at 3:55. The next meeting is scheduled
for March 6, 1986, 1:30 p.m.
Respectfully submitted,
