The rent decreases at issue here are individual adjustments governed by section 1805(c). Section 1805(c) gives the Board power to act “upon receipt of a petition by a landlord and/or a tenant.” By promulgating Regulation 4400, the Board has taken the position that section 1805(c) authorizes it to initiate petitions for individual rent adjustments anytime a construction problem that appears to affect two or more units in a particular building comes to its attention. The issue is whether the Board has reasonably interpreted its governing ordinance.
