       20th Street Owner requested that the petition be granted
and that the trial court issue a writ of administrative mandamus
requiring the Board to set aside its determinations in the excess
rent complaints and to order the Board to refund the registration
fees imposed after March 2016. 20th Street Owner also
requested various forms of declaratory relief, including that:
(1) it was entitled to continue operating the 20th Street property
without restrictions imposed by the Rent Control Law; (2) the
Board had no authority to revoke or nullify its 1993 removal
permit; (3) the Rent Control Law did not grant the Board any
power or duty to revoke removal permits; (4) a removal permit
under section 1803(t) removed ‘“a controlled rental unit from the
rental housing market”’ such that the unit could be rented free of
rent control; and (5) fees paid after March 2016 should be
refunded. 20th Street Owner also sought an award of costs and
fees.
