I voted YES on 98 and NO on 99. Rent control in this state is burdensome and over-regulated and most cities don’t allow for vacancy decontrol. Vacancy decontrol allows you to finally raise a rent up to market value when the person who was under rent control moves out. As long as the person stays in the place for rent, or in the case of mobile homes a relative who takes over upon the death of the family member, the rent can only be raised a very small amount each year. In San Bernardino county that is 80% of the CPI-U, which averages about 3-4% per year.
Long have the cities and municipalities forced rent control on mobile home park owners in an effort to meet their federally mandated targets for providing low-income housing. Hopefully that ends with Prop 98!

June 3, 2008 at 9:06 PM #216416CAwiremanParticipantI too agree with Esmith.
I did the same research and did the absentee ballot several weeks ago.
But any prop that rubs agaisnt the grain of seniors (rent control is a holy grain) might be destined for failure. Why the heck did they attach abolishing rent control as a rider?
It might have handily passed otherwise..June 3, 2008 at 9:06 PM #216500CAwiremanParticipantI too agree with Esmith.
