torney to prepare an ordinance requiring an annual inspection of

nance to the Council for consideration not later than August 15,

7/18/83
The Chairman of the Mobile Home Park Ad Hoc Committee stated
that the Committee recommended against implementing a moratorium
on mobile home park rents or approving a rent control ordinance
for mobile home parks.
Council Member Quiel made a motion, seconded by Council Mem-
ber Reilly, that the proposed rent control ordinance, including a
proposed moratorium on mobile home park rents, be denied.
Mr. Jack Kaplan of Rancho Meridian Mobile Home Estates, 2686
West Mill Street, urged the Council to adopt a moratorium ordi-
nance.
Attorney John Tindall, Star Route 89, Forest Falls, Califor-
nia, stated that he is the San Bernardino Citizens for Fair Rent
Chairperson and urged the Council to place a measure on the ballot
or pass an ordinance to institute rent control.
Mayor Holcomb stated that in his opinion, rental increases
beyond the consumer price index would be prima facie evidence of
rent gouging and suggested that the proposed ordinance be con-
tinued for 30 days to ask the mobile home park owners to agree
that they will not go beyond the cost of living on rent increases
without first coming to the Council.
Mr. Harold Anderson who has been the owner of Arrow Lane
Mobile Home Park at 2640 West Rialto Avenue since 1964, explained
why he felt that limiting rent increases to the consumer price in-
dex was not fair.
Mr. John Stubblefield, owner of Mountain Shadows Mobile Home
Community at 4040 East piedmont Drive, stated that at one time,
cost of rent increases based on cost of living had been rejected
by all tenants when at that time the consumer price index was
increasing rapidly. Now the situation is reversed. It would,
therefore, be unfair to hold increases down to the consumer price
index level.
Mr. Richard Taylor of Vogue Mobile Home Park, 24696 Second
Street, spoke in favor of a rent moratorium.
Mr. Jerry Jacobson, co-owner of Acacia Villa Mobile Home
Park. 2865 West Rialto Avenue, spoke.
Mr. Williams, owner of Rancho Meridian Mobile Home Park,
2686 West Mill Street, explained that rent control would have the
most negative effect on those who have voluntarily kept their
rental rates low.
Council Member Marks made a substitute motion, seconded by
Council Member Hernandez, that the proposed ordinance be con-
tinued to August 1, 1983 and the City Attorney be requested to
present the Council with all viable legal alternatives on the
question of assuring fair rents.

Mr. Allen Forsythe from San Antonio, Texas, a representative
of La Quinta Motor Inns, explained the impact that the ten per-
cent transient occupancy tax would have on La Quinta's revenue.
Ms. Kathy Wagner, Market Director of San Bernardino Hilton,
stated that their main competition is the Red Lion in ontario and
that the ten percent transient occupancy tax, which is two percent
higher than Ontario's tax, would create a ten percent loss of the
Hilton's business to the Red Lion.
Council Member Quiel made a motion to reduce the City of San
Bernardino's transient occupancy tax to eight percent and complete
a study to be brought back to the Council in 60 days to see if in
fact by raising transient occupancy tax to ten percent, there will
be a significant impact on hotels and motels operated in the community.
Warren Knudson, Finance Director, stated that a reduction in
transient occupancy tax from ten percent to eight percent would
cost the City $170,000 over a twelve month period.
The owner of the Super 8 Motel spoke in opposition to the
ten percent transient occupancy tax.
Council Member Quiel withdrew his motion and made the follow-
ing substitute motion, seconded by Council Member Strickler, that
the issue of transient occupancy tax be continued to an adjourned
regular Council meeting to be held during the next two weeks.
Don Morganstein, controller for the San Bernardino Hilton,
answered questions regarding the length of time the Hilton would
need to notify its offices of a change in the amount of transient
