Summary

West Sacramento requires mobile home park owners to file a rent increase notice with the city manager at least 90 days before any site rent increase takes effect.

A. A park owner shall provide the city with a rent increase notice whenever the rent on any park tenant in any mobile home park in the city is increased by any amount; and

B. A park owner shall file such notice with the city manager not fewer than ninety days before the rent increase is to take effect; and

C. At a minimum, each rent increase notice for each site shall include the following and any additional information as may be required by this chapter or the city manager or designee:

1. Current site rent (before rent increase);

2. The amount of the rent increase;

3. The effective date of the rent increase;

4. The reason for the rent increase;

5. The address and number of the mobile home site subject to the noticed rent increase; and 6. The date(s) and amount(s) of each rent increase within the twelve-month period prior to the rent increase notice (if none, the date and amount of the previous rent increase) for the affected mobile home site. (Ord. 09-7 § 3)

Full Breakdown

Under Chapter 15.07 of the West Sacramento Municipal Code, mobile home park owners must file a rent increase notice with the city manager whenever site rent for any park tenant goes up, filed at least 90 days before the increase takes effect. The notice must show the current rent, the increase amount, the effective date, the reason, the site address, and any increases in the prior 12 months. This filing-and-monitoring system applies only to mobile home park space rent in Yolo County's City of West Sacramento: it does not cap increases, and general residential rent increases instead follow state Civil Code notice rules.

Violations & Fines

Filing a rent increase notice late or omitting required details violates Chapter 15.07; noncompliance is a misdemeanor under Municipal Code § 1.12.010.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does West Sacramento cap mobile home park rent increases?
No. Chapter 15.07 requires advance notice and city monitoring, not a rent cap; it aims to encourage owners to offer long-term leases that stabilize rents voluntarily.
Does this notice rule apply to apartment rent increases?
No: it covers only mobile home park site rent. General residential rent increases follow California's statewide Civil Code notice periods instead.
