COMMISSION CONSIDERATION ITEMS 4a. REPORT ON OWNER OCCUPANCY PROVISION IN PROTECTIVE COVENANTS FOR BELLVUE LAND SUBDIVISION Mr. McCauley reported that the FDA's broker Dianne Mobroten provided the following information and comments on restricting occupancy to owners. Ms. Mobroten commented that it has been her experience that owner occupied restrictions in protective covenants are not used by builders in Minnesota. Ms. Mobroten has worked with a number of single family builders in Minnesota and indicated none of the builders she has worked with incorporated this type of restriction into their covenants. She also indicated that an "owner occupied" restriction may be a detriment to marketing single family homes and some examples include: • 11/23/98 -1- DRAFT * Retired owners may spend several months a year in another state and they want to rent out the property for a few months. * A temporary job transfer may necessitate a brief period of time that the owner may desire to rent the property. Ms. Mobroten indicated the "owner occupied" provision could be more commonly found in townhome and condominium developments where too many rental properties could have a detrimental effect on the viability of the condominium or townhouse association. 5.
