Council recognized Mr. Ed DeYoeger, 6550 Ponto Drive,
Carlsbad, of Lanikai. Mr. DeYoeger expressed the opinion
that the agreement as completed, did not conform to what the
parties had agreed upon. He stated it was the intention of
the negotiating committee to have the agreement extend for
two negotiating periods. Therefore, since he did not believe
the agreement reflected that understanding, there was no
agreement. He further expressed the opinion that he believed
all parks were to have an agreement or the City would enact
an ordinance regulating same.

Mr. Jack Robinson, owner of Lanikai Lane Mobile Home Park,
addressed Council. Mr. Robinson stated the agreement contain
the provision on page 8, Section XVIII, as specified by
I Mr. DeYoeger. I
Mayor Packard stated his belief that the negotiations had
resulted in the fact that'.the agreement would carry negotia-
tions through two periods, assuming that rent notices go out
on the normal date of November 1. Mr. DeYoeger and Mr.
Robinson affirmed that understanding.
I The City Attorney stated the existing agreement meets that
intent, but that clarifying language could be added if Counci
so desired. t I RECESS: Mayor Packard called a recess at 9:36 A.M. to allow
the opportunity for refinement of the wording in question,
and Council reconvened at 9:55 A.M. with all Council Members I present. 1
The City Attorney stated both parties had agreed to add the
following sentence to Section XVIII on page 8: "Any rent
increase noticed at any time before November 1,-1982, will be
negotiated and shall be subject to arbitration as provided in
this agreement, even if that process shall go beyond
November 1, 1982 .'I

1 Mayor Packard stated that the agreement had been signed by 1
Mr. Robinson, and noted, in accordance with the suggestion
of the City Attorney, that both parties should initial the
addit ion.
Mr. George Brissey, 6259 Easy Street, Carlsbad, of Solamar,
addressed Council. Mr. Brissey stated he had been a member
of the negotiating committee in Solamar. Mr. Brissey
reiterated the events leading to an agreement in the Solamar
Park prior to the Council meeting of December 16, 1980,
indicating that the owner had misinformed the residents,
thereby encouraging the signing of the agreement. He further
expressed the opinion that the agreements would not stand
the test of'litigation due to many deficiencies.
Mr. Joe Bastone, 7225 San Lucas, Carlsbad, of Lakeshore
Gardens, addressed Council. Mr. Bastone stated he had been a
member of the negotiating committee in Lakeshore Gardens,
but due to serving on jury duty, was absent during the final
week of negotiations. He reiterated the feeling that Council
should adopt a regulatory ordinance.
In summation, Mayor Packard noted that the desire of the
park residents was for a regulatory ordinance. He further
noted that the concentrated efforts of the City in attempts
to work out agreements in each park were aimed at negating
the need of an ordinance, yet yielding the same result.
