          The December 1999 amendment increasing the amount of the relocation
payments was accompanied by a set of findings, which included the following:
(1) tenants evicted under the Ellis Act are ―forced to incur substantial costs to relocate
themselves and their families to new housing‖; (2) costs incurred to relocate often include
payment for temporary housing and lost work time to seek new housing; (3) anticipated
costs of the household include new apartment move in costs, the actual cost of a mover,
and reestablishing various utilities; and (4) tenants without funds to move face a severe
risk of homelessness. (Ord. 5-00, File No. 992236, pp. 9-10.)

         In Pieri, supra, 137 Cal.App.4th 886, this court rejected the contention that
Government Code section 7060.1 of the Ellis Act restricts the authority of public entities
to require mitigation only for low income residents, and concluded that provisions of the
Rent Ordinance requiring relocation assistance regardless of income did not offend the
purposes of the Ellis Act by ― ‗prevent[ing] all but the wealthiest landlords from going
out of the rental business.‘ ‖ (Pieri, at p. 889.)
