Tuolumne County Supervisors today could allow the owners of the Columbia Mobile Home park to raise the rent of tenants who are on rent control. The owners of the park on Parrots Ferry Road want to raise rents by about $17 per space.

Most tenants there are on rent control.

Back in May, supervisors decided to put off making a decision, because the county building department had not done a recent enough inspection of the park, which is required under the county´s rent control ordinance.

Owners say the increase is necessary, because they´re entitled to a fair rate of return on their investment.
