On April 18, 2018, the trial court issued its statement of
decision on 20th Street Owner’s petition. The court found,
contrary to the Board’s decision, that 20th Street Owner had
detrimentally relied upon the Board’s representations that the
20th Street property was not under rent control by commencing
and completing renovations and improvements in the total
amount of $494,554.85. It further found that 20th Street Owner
undertook loan obligations in 2002 and 2013 on the assumption
that the loan would be repaid by rental proceeds based on market
rents unrestricted by rent control.
      On April 23, 2018, the trial court issued its amended
judgment. The court ordered that a peremptory writ of
administrative mandamus should issue, ordering the Board to
reverse and set aside its decision in the excess rent complaints
