Had voters intended for a removal permit to remove a unit from regulation (rather than from the rental housing market), they could have so stated. Indeed, voters knew how to exempt properties from rent control and did just that in section 1801(c), which provides that: "All residential rental units in the City [are subject to the Rent Control Law] ... except single family homes ... and those units found by the Board to be exempt under one *42or more of the following provisions[.]"13 (§ 1801(c).) None of the listed *387exemptions includes a unit that is the subject of a section 1803(t) removal permit. ( Mason v. Retirement Board (2003) 111 Cal.App.4th 1221, 1229, 4 Cal.Rptr.3d 619 ["we must ' "construe every statute with reference to the entire scheme of law of which it is part so that the whole may be harmonized and retain effectiveness" ' "].) " ' "[I]f exemptions are specified in a statute, [courts] may not imply additional exemptions unless there is a clear legislative [history] to the contrary. [Citation.]" ' " ( Imperial Merchant Services, Inc. v. Hunt (2009) 47 Cal.4th 381, 389, 97 Cal.Rptr.3d 464, 212 P.3d 736.) We observe no such legislative history to the contrary.
