But the requirements of this paragraph shall not apply to: (A) A unit that was the principal place of residence of any owner or owner’s family member at the time of withdrawal, provided that it continues to be that person’s or those persons’ principal place of residence when accommodations are returned to the rental market as provided in this section. (B) A unit that is the principal place of residence of an owner when the accommodations are returned to the rental market, if it is the owners’ principal place of residence, at the time of return to the rental market, as provided in this section. If the owner vacates the unit within 10 years from the date of withdrawal, the owner shall, within 30 days, offer to rerent if required under this paragraph. (e) Grant to any public entity any power which it does not possess independent of this chapter to control or establish a system of control on the price at which accommodations may be offered for rent or lease, or to diminish any such power which that public entity may possess, except as specifically provided in this chapter.
