REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION Date: October17, 2022 Item No.:7.b Department ApprovalCity Manager Approval Item Description:Discuss draft Tenant Notification ordinance 1 B ACKGROUND 2 City staff, under the direction of the Roseville Economic Development Authority (REDA) and City 3 Council, have been working on drafting a Tenant Notification Ordinance since the fourth quarter of 4 2021. The legislative history for the proposed Tenant Notification ordinance is as follows: 5 September 20, 2021: The REDA held a meeting and discussed information related to Just 6 Cause, Inclusionary Housing, and Tenant Notification ordinances. Staff was provided 7 direction to pursue a Tenant Notification ordinance in 2022. 8 May 16, 2022: The REDAheld a meeting and received information regarding a process that 9 was to be followed in order to engage with the public in advance of formal ordinance 10 consideration. The process was defined based on completion of the City’s Racial Equity 11 Toolkit. This discussion also noted that future ordinance considerationwould occur at the City 12 Council. Since that meeting, City staff drafted and executed anengagement plan. 13 From mid-August through September,City staff implemented aTenant Notification Engagement Plan 14(Attachment A)that was drafted following the May 16, 2022 EDA meeting/discussion. A total of 15 eight events were held to inform various stakeholders of the proposed Tenant Notification ordinance 16 and to obtain feedback. Results of the engagement efforts are provided in the Tenant Notification 17 Engagement Summary (Attachment B). Additionally, two emails were received (Attachment D). In 18 total, the effortsresulted in 104 contacts with stakeholders. While this number doesnot reflect the 19 goal of engaging with 5% of the rental population in Roseville, or 250 persons, the 104 engagements 20 that did occur resultedin meaningful conversations with Roseville renters. It’s also important to note 21 the Tenant Notification EngagementPlan included notifying every rental unit in the City that the 22 proposed ordinance was in-process, which resulted in mailing over 4,500 postcards. This greatly 23 exceeds the goal of engaging 250 persons, at least on the “inform”levelof the IAP2 spectrum. Website 24 and social media engagement occurred, as well as the distribution of 200 door hangers throughouttwo 25 majorapartment complexes (McCarrons View andPalisades) in the City prior to the last engagement 26 event. 27 In terms of ordinance feedback, the followingcomments werereceived: 28 General appreciation from renters of the additional tenant protections the proposed ordinance 29 would offer. 30 Requestby ownersto remove the Notice to the City of Proposed Salerequirement (Section 31 910.03).
