Goldberg' s concerns had been addressed by the City.
Mayor stated that the substance of his concerns have
been addressed, including some by the mayor, personally;
that the entire Council tries to be responsive and hold
employees accountable; that his complaints concerning
the mayor have been totally false data; that antagonism
is not a form of good communication; and that he only

7. WELWOOD MURRAY LIBRARY - EXPANDED SERVICES
Recommendation: That the Council approve use of Community
Promotions Fund monies to expand library and library
"reference/visitor" information services on a test basis
at the Welwood Murray branch.
Director of Community Services & Promotions reported that
the Council indicated it would be open to expanding the
services at the library, and the proposal will permit two
part-time employees in the Library Division to receive
training in visitor services, and provide downtown visitor
information; that information signage would be at the Library,
and the effort could be tried for four months, or up to
one year.
Councilmember Foster• stated that he was concerned that the
Chamber of Commerce, the VPB and the Library Board are going (099--
in different directions, and moved to request the VPB 005)
Executive Director, the City Librarian, and the Chamber
to meet during the next two weeks, and try to resolve the
issue together.
Mayor stated that the issues focus on the VPB providing
visitor information, the Chamber viewing it as a duplication
of service, and the use of the Welwood Murray Library.
Councilmember Foster stated that Community Promotion funds
are being proposed to fund the effort, which the Chamber
feels is within its role of responsibility, and the VPB
does not want to use the funds for that purpose.
Councilmember Apfelbaum stated that last year the $1 million
was set aside in order to have the best in visitor services,
and she thought the primary issue is whether the Library
is the site to be used for a visitor information center.
Council Minutes
1-3-90 Page 5
Mayor stated that in addition to the funding, the VPB is
in place, and a director appointed that everyone has confi-
dence in, and things should not now become scrambled otherwise
duplication will occur; that too many people are trying
to do the same thing; and that he thought the Council had
zeroed in on the VPB to concentrate on city-only visitor
and promotion efforts.
I City Manager noted that visitors will go wherever they choose
to get information, and the Library currently responds to
visitor requests for information, which will not change;
that part of the issue is providing service at the least
cost; that the view that only one source is to provide the
information is not realistic; that there is a need for
providing better visitor information service, which is
recognized by the VPB Executive Director, as well as the
former CVB Executive Director; and that it may take all
of the entities involved to accomplish it.
Councilmember Broich stated that visitors want information,
and the librarians can give it, or learn to give it; that
he considered it a good use of the library, and one that
may enhance the library's use; that duplication of services
does not have to be seen as a conflict; that the library
is appropriate for receiving community history and reference
material ; and that everyone should work together to make
it a nice center.

10. 1990 MUNICIPAL ELECTION - ALTERNATIVE RENT CCNTROL MEASURE
Consideration of alternative rent control measure to be
placed on the April , 1990 municipal election ballot.
City Attorney reported that the proposed initiative ordinance
was reviewed, and determination made that there would be
substantial exposure to city liability; that there is a (083-
lawsuit pending based on the Santa Barbara case; that at
the Council 's request, an alternative ordinance was prepared
which avoids the problems which were identified in that I
case, and he believes it provides full protection of the
tenant; that it includes language to smooth areas of the
existing ordinance, but maintains much of the format that
was workable; that it was reviewed at the study session;
that it is a better, draft ordinance for all parties concerned,
including the City; that 'the owners of the El Dorado
Mobilehome Park have sued the City, but does not relate
to the validity of the initiative ordinance; and that he
feels firms in his defense of the lawsuit.
Scott Lyle, 2190 Nicole Road, Chairman of the Board of
Realtors Rent Control Committee, stated that they have met
regularly with the City Attorney' s Office in the development
of the alternative ordinance; that he believes it is fair
to all parties; that the Council needs to follow-through
with letting the voters decide which ordinance they want;
and that there are organizations and other who support the
alternative ordinance and want to see it passed.
Stan Serasky, 205 Cameo, stated that the Council may still
adopt the ordinance, and he considered it unfair to those
who spent the time and effort to secure the petition not
to have it approved by the Council ; and he asked that the
Council do so at this time.
Craig Hage, Regional Director of the Western Mobilehome
Owners Association, spoke in support of placing the
alternative ordinance on the ballot; that the Association
realizes there needs to be rent control in Palm Springs;
and commented concerning a court case in New York which
had similar restrictive language on the conversion of
mobilehome parks.

10. 1990 GENERAL MUNICIPAL ELECTION (Continued)
Peter Shapiro, 344 San Domingo, stated that the Santa Barbara
case was based on a "cap" which is not true in the Palm
Springs ordinance; that neither proposed ordinance will
stop the city from defending the lawsuit; that eighteen
cases based on the Santa Barbara case were thrown out of
court recently; that the City should not be litigant, since
the ordinance was approved by the electorate; that the El
Dorado tenants intend to continue in their litigation; and
that 60 homes are for sale at El Dorado, but they are unable
to sell them.
Lucille Volley, 1099 Tachevah, C.V. Apartment Association,
urged that the Council place the alternative ordinance on
the ballot.
George Kaden stated that the alternative ordinance contains
vacancy decontrol , which further eliminates the opportunity
to sell mobilehomes because the park owner can raise the
rent to any amount he desire, leaving the mobilehome owner
a prisoner; and that the tenants have an aggregate worth
in excess of the value of the park.
Allen Perrier, Attorney, 801 Tahquitz, stated that he did
not believe the Council had much alternative regarding the
Santa Barbara case, and he believed that vacancy decontrol
is the law for mobilehome parks, and if the Council does
not place the alternative ordinance on the ballot, it faces
serious consequences; that the liability under the initiative
is born by the City, not the State, and any damages awarded
would be paid by the City; that the alternative is not an
"owners initiative" ; that landlords continue to receive
less than the CPI ; that rent control is intended to prevent
gauging where there is a shortage of available units, which
is not the case in Palm Springs; that owners are required
to pay registration fees; purchase money interest should
be recognized in some manner and considered an expense to
be passed through to tenants; that other, areas should be
included in the alternative, e.g. , including the $100 per
item per unit rule, on which he commented at length.
George Mellman, 189 Figuero Drive, stated that the $100
per item per unit rule is not intended as an aggregate amount,
and once recovered, landlords fail to remove the increased
rent amount.
Irving Bellicka, 238 Los Benos, El Dorado, expressed his
opinion that the alternative ordinance will create a welfare
or subsidy at the homeowner' s expense; but the initiative
measures gives protection.
Basil Chapman, Attorney, Best Best & Krieger, stated opposi-
tion to any ordinance which prohibits an owner from receiving
100% of the CPI increase; that the alternative ordinance
inherently favors the tenant, and does not allow increases
in expenses that increase with inflation; that if an owner
does not receive a fair-market return, properties will not
be maintained, and slum conditions will result; that the
remainder of the community is not involved in rent control ,
and the Council must act to protect its interest in terms
of potential taxpayer liability; that purchased money interest
is a real expense to an owner and should be allowed; that
the amortization schedules are not realistic; that the $100
per item per unit rule should be maintained; and that he
favored mandatory hearing examiners to reduce the processing
time.

10. ELECTION (continued)
Katrina Heinrich, 471 Monte Vista, stated that she does
not own and apartment building, or mobilelhome park, nor
does she represent anyone who does ; that she sympathizes
with the tenant, however, the existing rent control ordinance
has had a negative impact on potential investors in the
city, in terms of being able to receive a minimum 5% return
on investment; that she believed the alternative ordinance
is fair to both parties; that economics and the potential
negative fallout muss; be considered; that the existing ordi-
nance affects a small number of owners, but indlirectly affects
every owner of real property in the city.
Al Erdy, President of the Golden State Mobilehome Owners
Association, El Dorado Chapter, stated that people on fixed
incomes are the most hurt without rent control ; that mobile-
home owners invest in their home, maintenance of it, pay
utilities, and taxes, and questioned what they get in return
for high rent of a 50'x62' parcel on which to place the
unit; and commented on the particular situation of El Dorado.
City Attorney stated) that the existing ordiinance contains
provision to allow purchase money interest as an expense
in a hardship increase hearing, in terms of the increased
amount of interest that must be paid because of a variable
rate mortgage, if that rate has increased since the base
rent was determined, and is likewise included in the alterna-
tive ordinance; that consideration was given to a cap on
vacancy decontrol , however, in the Santa Barbara case, the
court said that any limitation less than a raise to market
value would still have the affect of transfer of value that
the case addressed; that the alternative ordinance does
not have such a limit; and that there has not been a great
deal of difficulty selling mobilehomes in parks which are
not under rent control in Palm Springs.
In answer to question by Council , City Attorney stated that
'laws must be drafted to all situations, and not designed
for one situation; and that the alternative ordinance would
result in eliminating most, or all , continual recurring
hardship increases because of the vacancy decontrol which
results in an occasional increase as new tenants arrive,
and gradually results in an overall average increase in
the level of rent, but protects the tenants currently in
place through the 3/4 of CPI increase. He stated that an
invitation was sent to tenants, attorneys, landlords and
others to attend a meeting last Fall for input on the alterna-
tive ordinance; that written materials have been sent since
that time as the draft evolved; and that there was not signif-
icant participation from tenant groups.
Councilmember Apfelbaum stated that rent control is the
law of the city, and she felt that everyone was in favor
of rent control and affordable housing; that the Council
has worked hard at keeping it on the books, but it must
also act responsibly to all parties, including all homeowners
in the city; that if an ordinance is found unconstitutional ,
everyone will pay - either through reducer.) services, or
in other monetary ways; that the alternative ordinance seems
more helpful to tenants than the existing ordinance, elimi-
nates the potential for litigation, and long hardship
hearings, clarifies language, eliminates waivers, requires
owners to pay registration fees, eliminates the $100 rule,
establishes vacancy decontrol which will not: hurt existing
tenants, and in the Yong term, be helpful .
Council Minutes

10. ELECTION (Continued)
Councilmember Broich stated that the tenants chose not to
participate in the alternative ordinance because they had
signed the initiative measure, which he felt the Council
should have adopted; that the Council does not have to place
the alternative on the ballot, which he considered to be
I a smoke screen; and he moved that the alternative not be
placed on the ballot. Said motion failed for lack of a
second.
Councilmember Foster stated that the Council was sincere
when it said that the initiative had flaws and it wanted
input in putting together an alternative ordinance to be
placed on the ballot; that all legal experts have said that
the initiative is flawed; that others have waited until
now to pick apart the alternative, instead of doing so when
they had an opportunity; that the Council must rely on legal
counsel ; and that it may take 2-3 years to realize what
the benefits will be to the people.
Councilmember Broich stated that the Assistant City Attorney
at one point held a different opinion, in that the situation
in Palm Springs was not the same as the Santa Barbara case.
City Attorney stated that there are split opinions; that
the City Attorney' s Office supports one opinion ; that there
are 30 court cases pending which involve the Santa Barbara
case issues.
In answer to question by Council , Mr. Shapiro stated that
I the initiative was prepared by Kenneth Barr; that the
initiative proponents did not bring their attorney to meeting
in September with the City Attorney because they did not
receive an invitation.
Mayor stated that he did not understand all of the legal
interpretations, nor the clarity purported in the alternative
ordinance.
Councilmember Apfelbaum stated that the Council is not a
legal expert, and the voters should decide which ordinance
is the best for them.
Councilmember Broich stated that the alternative ordinance
is not necessary, because if the people do not want the
initiative, they will vote against it.
Councilmember Foster stated that the existing ordinance
needs to be corrected, and the alternative offers a second
choice.
It was moved by Apfelbaum, seconded by Neel , and carried
by the following vote, that Resolution 16988 calling the

Recommendation: That the Council adopt various actions
in connection with the 1990 General Municipal Election,
including designating any or all of the Councilmembers to
file ballot arguments - either in favor, or in opposition,
to the ballot measures.
City Clerk stated that the proponents of the initiative
would have preference in filing an argument in favor of (083
the initiative, and the Council would be given preference
in filing an argument in opposition to it, provided it had
previously authorized any or all of its members to do so;
and that the same would be true in terms of the argument
in favor of the alternative ordinance; that any or all members
purporting to represent the Council , even as a minority
view, would still be required to be so authorized.
Councilmember Broich stated that he did not wish his name
to appear in favor of the alternative ordinance, nor did
he support having an argument signed only by the mayor.

on the ballot, he would be willing to sign the argument
on behalf of the Council .

Palm Springs City Council to file a ballot argument in favor

lighting is installed at locations where traffic problems
have been demonstrated; that Ralph Hitchcock, SCE, advised
him that there is no shield fixtures available for the
proposed light standard although SCE would be willing to
research it further, but because the design of the fixture
would reduce the spread of light, SCE would ask for a hold
harmless from the City because of it.
