16.84.350 - Special leases.¶
At the time of the notice of right to purchase tenants over age sixty-two (62) wishing to purchase a residential unit shall be offered lifetime leases on the same terms under which the unit is currently rented. Tenants with school age children not wishing to purchase their units shall have their leases extended at least until one month after the end of the school year, at the tenant's discretion. Tenant households which are lower income shall be offered two-year leases. Handicapped tenants shall be offered at least three-year leases. Special leases shall be binding on future owners of said units, shall prohibit subleasing, and shall be terminable at the option of the tenant upon sixty (60) days' notice to the owner. Rent increases on special leases shall be limited to the rent increase limitations provided in Section 16.84.360. (CCCC§ 926-14.202)
16.84.360 - Rent limitation.¶
Upon filing an application for conversion, a tenant's residential rent shall not be raised by more than the amount of one hundred (100) percent of the change in the Consumer Price Index-rental component for the San Francisco-Oakland SMSA for the previous twelve (12) month period prior to filing. The rental increase limitation is cumulative within each successive twelve (12) month period and shall apply to subleased units. (CCCC§ 926-14.204)
16.84.370 - Applicability.¶
Sections 16.84.350 and 16.84.360 shall apply only to tenants who were residents as of the date of notice of intent to convert. (CCCC§ 926-14.206)
16.84.380 - Discounts and moving assistance.¶
A. Unit Purchase Discount. The applicant (subdivider) shall offer to those parties who are residents as of the date of notification of intent to convert the project, and are still residents as of the date sale commences, a discount in the amount of at least ten percent of the price at which the unit will be offered to the public. B. Moving Expense Assistance. The applicant (subdivider) shall offer moving expense assistance to displace rental housing tenants who are residents at the time of delivery of the notice of intent, the amount of which
shall not be less than two times the monthly rental rate of the unit in effect at time of vacation of the unit. The moving expense payment shall be made to the tenant within ten days of, but not later than, the date of vacation of the tenant's apartment unit. C. Temporary Relocation. In the event that any tenant of a unit enters into a written agreement with the developer to purchase their unit and is thereafter required to temporarily vacate the unit because renovation or required repairs cause the unit to become temporarily unlivable, the developer shall be responsible for finding suitable, temporary, furnished replacement housing for such tenant. If the replacement housing prorated daily rent is higher than the prorated daily rent for the vacated unit, then the developer shall pay the difference. (CCCC§§ 926-16.202 — 926-16.206)
