a vote repealing rent control in capitola has been postponed indefinitely, but city officials expect it to come before the city council again soon. councilman kirby nicol said the city is looking to buy time while lease terms at the surf and sand mobile home park are resolved. the vote has already been delayed twice by the city council.
the city’s rent control ordinance was passed in 1979 to protect mobile home park residents from unreasonable rent increases.
