Section 1803, subdivision (g) of the RCL grants the Board the authority to promulgate rules and regulations “as will further the purposes of the Article.” In 1993, the Board promulgated regulation 9002, subdivision (b), which is specifically intended to govern evictions for owner-occupancy. Subdivision (b)(3) of regulation 9002 (this subdivision shall be referred to as the Regulation) provides, “Any owner who files suit against a tenant for eviction for owner or relative occupancy and who subsequently has the action dismissed, either voluntarily or involuntarily, is precluded from terminating that tenant’s tenancy for owner or relative occupancy for four years from the date of dismissal, unless such dismissal is pursuant to a written settlement agreement between the owner and tenant negotiated at arms length and signed by both parties.” *471
