For Property Managers

Operators overseeing a conversion project subject to § 16.84.260 generally ensure that written notices are prepared and dispatched to every tenant within ten days of final map approval. Compliant operators typically use a mailing method that satisfies California's legal standards for service by mail, which creates a documented record of delivery. Maintaining copies of the notices and proof of mailing helps demonstrate compliance with this provision of Orinda's Code of Ordinances.

For Tenants

Section 16.84.260 of the Orinda Code of Ordinances gives tenants the right to receive written notification within ten days after a final map for a conversion is approved, as required by California Government Code Section 66427.1(b). If a tenant does not receive this notice within that window, it may be relevant to any challenge or proceeding related to the conversion. Tenants who believe this notice requirement was not met may wish to contact a local tenant-rights organization or the City of Orinda to understand what options are generally available.
