3 Attachment 1 24 Jesse Arreguín City Councilmember, District 4 CONSENT CALENDAR January 19, 2016 To: From: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Councilmember Jesse Arreguín Subject: Tenant Buyout Agreement Ordinance RECOMMENDATION Refer to the City Manager and the Rent Stabilization Board to draft an ordinance regulating situations where a tenant agrees to vacate a rent-controlled unit in exchange for a sum of money, known as a buyout. BACKGROUND As rents continue to rise, and the disparity between market-rate and rent controlled rents increases, landlords have a greater incentive to offer buyouts to tenants of rent controlled units in order to greatly increase the rents of that unit. Buyouts are an alternative to evictions that are currently unregulated, allowing landlords to circumvent restrictions that apply in an eviction process. This can cause some landlords to employ high-pressure tactics and intimidation on tenants who often agree to such buyouts without understanding their rights. The Berkeley Rent Board recently prevailed in an appellate case that has been certified for publication (Mak v. City of Berkeley Rent Stabilization Board). The Court upheld a Rent Board Regulation designed to protect tenants from landlords acting in bad faith by serving owner move-in eviction notices upon which they never intend to act and then negotiating terms of a buy out in order to displace mostly long-term tenants so they can significantly increase rents. The Court held that the City has an interest in protecting tenants from this type of subterfuge and these regulations are fair, reasonable, and necessary. In January 2015, Santa Monica passed an ordinance relating to the regulation of buyouts. Before making a buyout offer, landlords must provide a written notice to the tenants of their rights pertaining to buyout agreements including: The right not to enter into a buyout agreement; The right to consult with an attorney and/or the Rent Board before signing an agreements; and The right to cancel the agreement at any time up to 30 days after all parties have signed it.

4 Tenant Buyout Agreement Ordinance CONSENT CALENDAR January 19, 2016 Additionally, the buyout agreement must be in writing and provide a list of the tenant s rights as listed above. Any buyout agreement that does not satisfy all of the requirements is not effective and may be rescinded by the tenant at any time. San Francisco has passed a similar ordinance, with tenants having the right to cancel the agreement up to 45 days after the agreement has been signed. FINANCIAL IMPLICATIONS Staff time. ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY No adverse effects to the environment.
