BOARD OF APPEALS AND ADVISORS
STAFF REPORT
Item: IA
Meeting Date: June 26, 200]
ITEM TITLE: Property Transfer Report Program
SUBMITTED BY: Brad Remp, Cff 0, Assistant Director of Planning and Building
The Planning and Building Department is requesting the Board of Appeals and Advisor' s
endorsement to implement a new, program that will enhance the City' s ability to detect and
resolve code enforcement violations that arise from construction work Nat has been undertaken
without benefit of obtaining appropriate permits. Staff investigations have revealed list
frequently such uapermitted work represent significant Bre and life safety havards. This program
will focus attention on ensuring that potential buyers of existing homes are given relevant code
enforcement Information about to legal status of the property prior to completion of the sale.
Sellers of residential property, or thew agents, will be responsible for requesting a property
transfer report from me City wit 10 days of placing the property an Ne market for sale. A fee
of $70 per report will be charged as a means of recovering Ne cost of administering to program.
'lire Board previously heard tis item on June. 11, 2007. During that meeting a significant
number of representatives from me real panels industry expressed concerns about to language in
me proposed Ordinance and that they had wt been given sufficient opportunity to review the
material prior to the meeting. Based on this testimony, staff revised then recommendation and
requested that me item be tabled for approximately two weeks to afford the public Ne opportunity
to become more familiar with the specific language contained in to proposal. This additional
time also gave shift the opportunity to make minor revisions to the language in response to
suggestions provided by Ne public and members of the Board.
RECOMMENDATION: Sndorse adoption of the attached proposes ordinance establishing a
requirement for residential property sellers to obtain a property tranerer report from the City
prior to sale of the property.
DISCUSSION:
The City of Chula Vista has experienced a significant increase in the number of residential
properties that have undergone building consumption modifications without appropriate permits.
Many of mese modifications were initiated as a means of creating additional habitable space,
often for the purpose of creating renial Income for the current owners. These modifications
range from me typical conversion of a bay or several bays of a garage into additional bedrooms
to erection of additional stand-alone dwelling units on me property. Staff investigations have
revealed that most of these modified properties contain significant fire ano life safety violations of
the budding codes. These violations expose Ne inhabitants to both an unreasonable level of
health and safety risk as well as the potential for significant fmancial loss because insurance
companies are generally not required to compensate policyholders who have illegal construction.
Page 2, Item
Meeting Date 6/11/n]
Unfortunately, these types of Illegal construction types of violations are frequently not disclosed
when be property is sold, even bough State Law requires such disclosure. Ultimately, the new
owner ravenous the responsible party to resolve the violations once this unpermiRed work is
Identified.
This Ordinance will mandate that the seller, or his/her agent, request a property transfer report
from the City within 10 days of placing line residential property on the market. To cover the
anticipated costs of administering be program, a $70 fee will be charged. Staff is currently
working with an outside vendor to aulnmate this research process to be extent that be report will
be immediately available via access to an Internet website. This automated process will
significantly reduce be amoum of time and effort bet sellers and agents will need to spend on
securing this information.
Staffa research into this program revealed that approximately B ober jurisdictions in
California have been successfully using such a program. While many of these ober jurisdictions
have also incorporated the Inclusion of a mandatory houseman component Into Weir program,
that inspection service is only being offered on a voluntary basis at this time. Overall, Nese
jurisdictions have reported a significant reduction In be level of illegal new construction as a
result of implementing beer programs. They attribute this improvement to the realization on the
part of property owners that all illegal construction will eventually be detected and be cost of
resolving the violations will be significantly greater than those that would havr been inured
from olouning be required building permits and inspections at be time of original construction.

remedy the problems prior to close of escrow.
There has been a decrease In the amount of building without perm its that goes on because
people know they will eventually get caught They Come Into Planning &Building and either
gel proper permits or l(ifs not allowed the spe won't be done_ They know that when they
try to sell the house without permits. it will be caught The research to see If a permit is in
place Can be provided relatively quick Areport could be In place at the hie of escrow_ It
ocean't necessarily step the sale. A buyer could decide to go ahead and buy the property
even with hidden construction. But If the property Is bought under those conditions, we
problems still exist The buyer has the report and knows there hes to be a remedy. There
could bee re recension of the contact because the property is not a btglex and instead is
single family home, etc. Corrections muk be if drier the sale from en escrow accourt

oltlinance, rediscovered Handles had fewercasesofunpermihed constructor. Mr. Lttper thought adopting this

Member's Comments -
Chairman Flach Pentad out hat some of the Information from Ne city report was not complete. Mr. Remp
stated they intend to sofnt Me support of the City Attorney's Offw to inClutle a disclaimer that states that the
information will be as accurate and up to data as can be.
Member Buddingh brought up the fact that there is a liability waiver in the draft ordinance. He suggesarda
provision be added'. If the buyer chooses to pureness the property regardless or any violation Issues, there should
be language in the ordinance that states the buyer is waiving any claims against the seller for those issues being
Iced In the report Another Issue was that Ihi be list only to pressures that are listed, Is too narrow. He
suggested Inclutling properties that aren'I listed as welt Mr. droo gh also addressed an issue under XX.XX.090
REMIDATION- CORRECTIVE ACTION, how the notice of violation should twitter be issued M the owner of
cord. If there was a case where the owner had sold the property, 0 should be Issued to the pmspedive
purchaser as well. Lastly he addressed Issues under XXXX.tyg APPEALS, Mr. Remp stated Mat this was
cross-referenced and the appeal process would be the same as the code enforcement appeal process.
Chairman Flach Men asked if the real estate agent is responsible for giving out this information. Mr. Rempstated
that the seller of the property would be theme thata ultimately responsible.
Member Buencamino-Andrews stated she agrees with idea of the buyer having Me option Msign a waiver if
they choose not M correct Issues identified in this report and waiving any legal action from the buyer to the seller.
Member Tamer asked if the property report would cover problems that have already been identified by a city
bulldinglnspabor. Mr. Leeper said that the repent would coverall known building permits that were issued on that
propadyandtheirstatus. Mr. Turner said Mat buyers would likely 'Interpret this report as saying that Me City has
approved any projects on the property. The details of an on-site Inspection were discussed. Mr Turner asketl
about the average cost of an on-site Inspection by a code enforcement officer. Mr. Leepersaiditwould be a
mimum of twom
hours of full costrevery atabout $198 00 an hour. The public would be retired of this optional
on site Inspection through public outreach.
Member Wast commented that he would welcome this ordinance as a potential buyer and see this as an extra
layer of protection. He stated that he was in favor of this.
Member Hlemnlmus was concerned that if the current seller did not know about the illegal construction, was it
fair to hold them responsible? Mr Leader answered that this is one of Ne main reasons for this ordinance W stop
this kind of transferif the construction can belegehand by obtaining the proper Saudi the sellercancgmein
and get the proper permits to avoid costs and tliMculry In the future. Cede Enfomementwoulb apply the building
codes that were in effect at the gine the construction was made. Or Leeper statetl this ordinance is"proted'ron"
for both the buyer and the seller unaware of illegal construction that may pose a Its and safety hazard_
Public Comments
➢ Richard DascDll from Pacific Southwest Association of Readers commented that no one from the public
has read the staff report froths this meeting. The board will be making a decision based on a report that
of Appeals Advisors
Mr. Remp gave ro them that "wasn't very tletailed without the board's complete Insight. Mr. Reap and
Mr. Leeper stated that they will have time from now until July 9th, which is when this netts to go he
council, to meet again, to further discuss the draft ordinance if they need to,
Y DanOHanlon from McMillin Realty applauded the fact o provide a Voluntary on-site inspection from
the city. However, everything that was persuaded is already in place in their procedures as a real It
would be difficult to explain this -voluntary inspection' to the buyer because the standing and language Is
complex.
Gary Nordstrom stated he was a former Planning Commissioner and former Chair of the Growth
Management Oversight Committee. He Nought this ordinance would dictate to every prospective seller
that before they could sell their home they have to ensure that any upgrade or renovation had Me proper
Permits . In his opinion, this would cause chaos and would deter people from complying. He asked that
the board table this issue because this Information was not provided In a timely manner, and that the
boom takes a common-sense approach to Nis Issue that could cause all kinds of liabilities to buyers,
sellersrealtors, and to the City of Chula Vista.
Negartera li, Broker, men Abercrombie&Associates asked who would get the $70 fee from this report.
an Remp staled that the City would get most of it and a pardon would go To the outside vendor. Ms.
Mirgoli also commented on they Issue of Thoperies listed within 10 days'. She noted is today's market
properties listed are taken off within days (because they aren't selling) and turned into rentals. Therefore,
Ne owners ofthis property are paying a $i0 fee that they tlon t nett tomcur. Interview itwould make
better sense that this be done prior to the close of escrow, so ffasthe ST0 expense can be taken ofithe
sellers shoulder until transaction is finalized Per Leeper added that this report is not designed M delay or
Y Mark Scott, stated as a catch they are already required to do an 'agent visual Inspection", per civil
case issue so they gel the app2pdatepeople to Inspect He said that to law already exists, andthemis
'rs"dcuble-legislating" what laws are alreatly in place. HealsobrougMup%XXR. 030REQUIREDnand
said that ilwoultl be betterto take out the word "agent" and just leave broker, so the responsibility would
fall only 0nt11ebrokerand notlhe agent He dozen't like thefad Pat Itis nowthe duty oRhe agentrbaoker
to getthis repodand pay forit loo. Mr. Remp stated the City and Cotte Enforcement are trying to pretest
Ne individuals who are buying these individual units and the community as a whole. This program would
solve the Illegal construction problem through an effective exchange of informal'ron.
r Patti MCKelvy from McMillan Realty sound that this would cause a problem and she tllsagrees. In her
Pull it was the city's way of get extra revenue.
r Brad Wilson, Real Estate Agent General Connector thought legislation should be written towards the
building Inspectors hired to Inspect these properties, instead of the Poll
r Mark Scett stated that far a layperson it would be difficult to understand the information on these reports.
Mc Remp commented that every permit that has been issued since December 1991, are digitized and In
our automated system.
r Isabel Hall from McMillin Realty stated that the Pity may have good Intentions but California is already
requirement heavy State and this Information Is already available to the buyer. What the City is doing is
legislating and making it a requirement that they MUST knowthis Information. She said that this Sir does
not have "compliance Inspections" in place, which is something Nat should be required if this ordinance
Papers.
(Chairman Flach stepped out temporl Mr. West temporarily stepped in as Chair)
Chris Lewis with McMillin Realty addressed the Issue of agents) real estate community being the
watchdog "on this. He pointed out that agents arena code experts and shouldn't be held accountable for
submitting reports and disagrees with this ortlinance.
Lupe Soto, with McMillin Realty stated she was against he ordinance, as itwould create chaos Sellers
will be discouraged from selling their properties. In her opinion, this ordinance forces the agent to
Interpret the codes and they shouldn't be put in this posi0on because agents are not wide experts.
r Member Turner stepped into comment on worry been addressed so far Hewasinfavoroftberepod.
He emphasized that this A not a"burden" to the seller, like everyone perceives it to be. Hestresseda9ain
that the idea of this ordinance Is to stop illegal construction from being passed from one seller to another.
of Appeals B Advisors 4-
Y John Miller, Realtor, suggested It would be a good idea th, make the Inspection -Hffiq de by making it from
a city building Inspector then there will be no question about what is cotle compliant and what is not.
9 Dante Laura from Really Executives mentioned the language panelsig to disclosure Is already
incorporated Into their real estate documents. He cautioned the city to be prepared far n onslaught of
Inspections because of this ordinance most every buyer will want one.
➢ Mariana Alan from McMillin Realty said that realbrs already have fors and procedures to do this. When

corrections dant away.
L Another maker from McMillin Really asked if this ordinance would exclude 'for sale by ci pmparties.
If it does, awill encourage sellers to sell properties on their own for a lower amount to avoid this law and
