Case 1082 - 2485 Shoreline Dr., Apt. 103 Tenant: Jason Gonsalves and Shannon Landlords: Johanna Leonard, Randall Kessler, Michael St. John, Andrew Fisher, Asia Hawkins Proposed rent increase: $326.99 (23.5%), effective October 1, 2018 Mr. Gonsalves stated that he is under severe financial hardship, including $100,000 of student loans that are coming due soon, which would be a new bill coming into the household. Shannon said they were taking care of their mother. Mr. Gonsalves said his work is of a seasonal nature making a steady stream of income difficult. They also expressed security concerns and said they felt a $100 increase at the most would be fair. Shannon said she worked at a help desk and had very few pay increases, adding that without Mr. Gonsalves' income, she would not be able to afford to live in the unit. Mr. Gonsalves brought up the CIP resolution's restrictions on the landlords' ability to request an increase. City Attorney staff clarified that this rent increase was not being asked under the CIP resolution, but the Committee could still consider the landlords' expenses from their capital improvements under Ordinance 3148. The participants took their seats and the Committee began deliberations. Member Griffiths said that he thought a $100 increase would be reasonable. Motion and second for a $100 increase (Members Griffiths and Sullivan-Cheah). Motion passed 4-0. 7-F. Case 1078 - 2485 Shoreline Dr., Apt. 202 No Committee review. The Committee was unable to hear this case due to time constraints. The case will be heard by the Committee at a later date. Page 6 of 8 | RentReviewAdvisoryCommittee/2018-09-17.pdf |
