Rent control rules in Simi Valley, CA — also known as rent stabilization or rent cap ordinances — limit annual rent increases and protect tenants from displacement.
Ventura County's Mobile Home Park Rent Control Ordinance (Division 8, Chapter 10) protects mobile home owners in unincorporated areas from unreasonable rent increases. Annual increases are tied to the Social Security COLA, ranging from 2% to 8%.
Adopted in 1983, Chapter 10 of Division 8 established the Mobile Home Park Rent Control program. No space rent increase is effective unless approved under the ordinance (effective from September 1, 1982). Annual increases are based on the Social Security Cost of Living Adjustment (SSCOLA), with a minimum of 2% and maximum of 8% per year. Upon transfer of ownership, park owners may increase rent no more than once every 4 years at 15% of the average space rent or $72, whichever is less (§81005(c)). The Mobile Home Park Rent Review Board meets quarterly to administer the program. The ordinance balances protecting residents from unreasonable increases while ensuring park owners receive fair return on investment.
Implementing a rent increase without approval under the ordinance is a violation. Tenants can file complaints with the Rent Review Board. Unauthorized increases must be refunded. The Planning Division at (805) 654-5042 administers the program.
