<br />3. Amend the code to delete the Building Code references and required inspections by the City. <br /> Common elements will be covered and disclosed in the reserve specialist report. This code <br /> provision needs to be deleted since Eugene building inspectors are neither expert nor staffed <br /> adequately to provide inspections of completed structures which are necessary with the current <br /> condominium conversion process. There is, however, a pool of qualified individuals regulated and <br /> licensed by the State specializing in pre-sale inspection services of completed buildings. The <br /> regulations will require that individual purchasers be informed about the importance of a pre- <br /> purchase inspection and encouraged to obtain one. <br /> <br />4. Amend the code to clarify that the tenant’s right-to-stay period is 120 days after issuance of the <br /> permit. <br /> <br /> <br />RELATED CITY POLICIES <br />The tenant protections for condominium conversions and the closure of manufactured dwellings parks <br />are combined in the administrative rules. They offer similar, but different, tenant protections. This <br />combining of the rules has caused some confusion. The intergovernmental Housing Policy Board <br />formed a subcommittee to address the manufactured dwelling park closure issue and possibly propose <br />revisions to the manufactured dwelling park code provisions. The work of the subcommittee is <br />scheduled to conclude by December 2006. Amendments to these code provisions, including uncoupling <br />them from the park closure rules, may be proposed at that time. <br /> <br /> <br />COUNCIL OPTIONS <br />The Eugene Code requires that a public hearing be conducted on the proposed changes. The City <br />Council is scheduled to take action on July 10, 2006. <br /> <br /> <br />CITY MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION <br />The City Manager recommends that the public hearing be conducted as required by the Eugene Code. <br /> <br /> <br />SUGGESTED MOTION <br />None. <br /> <br /> <br />ATTACHMENTS <br /> <br />A.
