The Guggenheim family, owners of Rancho Mobile Home Park in western Goleta, filed two lawsuits against the city of Goleta last week.
One of the lawsuits is a challenge to a moratorium set by the city on conversions from mobile home rental parks to resident ownership. The other is for $21,857,000 in damages over “the loss of fair market value … and loss of income” due to the park owners’ inability to convert the park.
The city’s legal counsel will prepare a response within the next two weeks, said City Manager Dan Singer.
