In approving a relocation impact report, the city council may attach reasonable conditions in order to mitigate the impacts associated with the conversion, closure or cessation of use. The specific conditions of approval of a particular application shall be determined on an application-by-application basis with regard to the acts and circumstances of the application, but shall not exceed the reasonable cost of relocation, as documented in the relocation impact report. The city council shall require the applicant to enter into a written agreement with the city to ensure compliance with and fulfillment of the conditions of approval, which may include but are not limited to the following matters:

A. Payment of relocation assistance to each resident who resides in the mobilehome park as of and after the date the application is filed or the date a closure, conversion or cessation of use is deemed by the city council to have commenced.

B. Payment of the cost of physically moving the mobilehome to a new site, including teardown and setup of movable improvements such as patios, carports and porches; packing, moving and unpacking all personal property; and in-transit costs for meals, lodging and gas.

C. Payment of a lump sum to compensate for payment of the first and last month rent and any security deposit at the new mobilehome park.

D. Payment of a lump sum to compensate for any differential between rental rates at the closing mobilehome park and the new mobilehome park during the first year of the new tenancy.

E. For tenants the costs may include all reasonable expenses incurred in moving to a new location, up to a maximum distance of fifty miles.

F. For homeowners who are unable to reasonably relocate their mobilehome, payment of fair market value for their mobilehome, based on information contained in the approved relocation impact report.

G. Setting aside a certain number of affordable units for the residents of the park, if the park is to be converted to another residential use; or providing a certain number of affordable units on-site or off-site, if the park is to be converted to a use other than residential.

H. In order to facilitate a proposed conversion, closure, or cessation of use of a mobilehome park, the residents and applicant may agree to mutually satisfactory conditions. To be valid, such an agreement shall be in writing, shall include a provision stating that the resident is aware of the provisions of this chapter, shall include a copy of this chapter as an attachment, shall include a provision in at least ten-point type which clearly informs the resident of the right to seek advice of an attorney prior to signing the agreement with regard to the resident’s rights under such agreement, and shall be drafted in the form and content otherwise required by applicable state law.
