The trial court found that the Board’s “calculation of damages by retroactively revoking all annual rent increases . . . constitutes the imposition of a penalty that exceeds the judicial power of the [Board], By such calculation the [Board] exacts from the landlord more than the tenant would have had to pay if the landlord had complied with the [Rent Control Law]. Such a penalty is not authorized by any statute, and there is no showing that it is necessary to effectuate the administrative agency’s primary, legitimate, regulatory purposes.”
