The Board argues that it did not exceed its power by excluding allowable general adjustments from the maximum lawful rent for purposes of its overcharge calculations. It points to a provision in the Rent Control Law stating, “No landlord shall increase rent under this Article if the landlord: (1) Has failed to comply with any provisions of this Article and/or regulations issued thereunder by the Board . . . .” (City Charter, art. XVIII, § 1805, subd. (h)(1).) Based on this provision, the Board adopted a regulation that excludes rent increases for the preceding three years from the maximum lawful rent,, for purposes of calculating overcharges. (Reg. 8024.)
