[BoulderCouncilHotline] First Reading Questions regarding proposed Ordinance 8216

[Young, Mary]

Dear Staff,

I have the following questions regarding proposed Ordinance 8216:

1. Ordinance would prohibit retaliation within six months of a specified action. Does this mean retaliation could occur at six months plus one day? Why six months and not longer?

2. On line 14 of page 242, the paragraph refers to "the rental agreement." Could "the rental agreement" be different from the mobile home owner's signed lease? Is the intent that "the rental agreement' is that which the home owner or renter has agreed to? If so, could the language change to be more specific as to that intent?

3. On lines 1 and 7 of page 247,  the phrases are not parallel to each other. Is there a reason that line 7 includes "or an agent" and line 1 does not? Could both include "or an agent"?

4. On line 5 of page 248, first class mail is specified. How does a notification sent by first class mail provide proof of mailing? Why not specify certified mail or some method for which there is a receipt?

5. On line 12 of page 248, proposed ordinance states cost sharing of mediation services. Why not specify use of city provided mediation services through existing channels?

Thank you.
