An alternate strategy may include, but shall <br />not be limited to, providing other mitigation and concessions to tenants such as <br />permanent relocation of displaced tenants into similar apartments on-site or <br />nearby, ongoing rent concessions or suitable notice and other elements of <br />mitigation that would serve the goals and purposes of this Chapter.

Evidence of tenant agreement with <br />an alternate mitigation strategy may be submitted to the City for review. With each <br />such alternate submission, the landlord shall provide complete information as <br />determined necessary by the Community Development Director. <br />After an alternate mitigation strategy is submitted, the landlord shall provide notice <br />of the submission by regular and certified mail and posted on the door of each <br />rental unit. Tenants shall have fourteen (14) days from the date notice is posted or <br />mailed, whichever is later, to submit comments on the alternatives to the <br />Community Development Director. <br />Alternate mitigation proposals shall be approved or denied by the Community <br />Development Director. Within seven days of the decision, the City shall provide <br />notice of the decision to the landlord and all tenants.
