CityCouncil | 2018-06-05 | 17 | The Community Development Director stated that she is assuming the amount captures conversations with both tenants and landlords. Vice Mayor Vella stated that she would like the matter clarified. The City Attorney stated the relocation formula is in the ordinance. Vice Mayor Vella stated there have been issues with information from the landlord, such as actual rent rate; inquired whether the City would also be working with the tenant to verify the information. The Community Development Director stated staff would have the opportunity to work with the tenant; stated Appendix C of the fee study provides detail on the CIP cases; outlined the process. Vice Mayor Vella stated that she is not questioning the process; she is questioning the label on page 13. The Community Development Director stated it may just be a labeling issue; the Administrator works with both parties; the table can be revised. Vice Mayor Vella stated that she just wants staff to confirm the work is not just with the landlord and is also with the renters to ensure everything is being captured and the fee is not being reduced. The Community Development Director responded staff would do so. Stated Citywide data collection is needed; the database should be searchable; a database of all the buildings in the City exists; the City is getting new financial software; the systems need to be able to talk to each other; expressed concern over Airbnb and condominium conversions; stated that she knows of three evictions for owner move-ins that did not go through the system; some savings came from not having a director for six months; there is a lack of education, training and coordination; she would not use the system because it would create an adversarial relationship with her landlord; the system is not working, not limiting evictions and not creating sustainable rents; funds remaining should be used to get an adequate data system: Catherine Pauling, Alameda.
