Alerted to the construction by these early complaints and petitions, the Board sent a notice to Gabriel, dated October 15, 1999, and copied to all the tenants in the building. It stated that the Board had received information that the building was undergoing construction; that Board regulations allowed tenants to file rent decrease petitions for negative impacts and loss or reduction of housing services caused by such construction; that “[decreases may be awarded for the entire time period that any qualifying construction impacts or impairments are in existence, beginning with the date of this notice”; and that “[t]enants are not required to give you additional notice of their intention to the file rent decrease petitions.” The notice stated that appellant was “encouraged to talk with [the] tenants to resolve issues which arise due to the construction” and that the Board would “provide mediation services to assist you and your tenants in developing an agreement regarding mitigating the impacts of the construction.” If the issues were not resolved in mediation “and decrease petition(s) are filed,” hearings would be set in accordance with Santa Monica Rent Control Board regulation 4400.
