units in order to provide an opportunity to be heard. The General Manager may issue a decision as to the rental units included in the original Decision of the Department prior to the continued hearing date or may wait and issue one General Manager Hearing Officer Decision covering all of the units. The effective date of rent reductions as to units included in the original Decision of the Department is identified in Sections 162.04 D.5. and 162.05 B. If the hearing is continued, the effective date of rent reductions as to additional units not included in the original Decision of the Department, will be the date of the General Manager Hearing Officer Decision issued after the hearing. 5. If the General Manager finds that the violations are of such a nature or extent that they are likely to be found in or affect several units, the General Manager may order the rent reduction extended to additional units that were not included in the original Decision of the Department without proof of an outstanding Order for those units. The General Manager Hearing Officer Decision shall state the findings justifying extending the rent reduction to additional units. Prior to determining that additional units not included in the original Decision of the Department pursuant to Section 162.04 D. will be subject rent reduction, the General Manager shall, if requested by the property owner/landlord, continue the hearing as to the additional units in order to provide an opportunity to be heard. The General Manager may issue a Decision as to the rental units included in the original Decision of the Department prior to the continued hearing date or may wait and issue one General Manager Decision covering all of the units. 6. The General Manager may refer the building, unit or structure for a periodic inspection pursuant to Section 161.602. If the building has already had a periodic inspection within the past three years, the General Manager may order the property owner/landlord to pay an inspection fee pursuant to Section 161.901.2. (Amended by Ord. No. 185,644, Eff. 7/6/18.) 7.
