Tenants complained about steep rent increases from a landlord. Now, 20 of them will get a refund under a state rent control law.
In 2019, Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a law toNearly four years later, the state announced its first enforcement action against a landlord under the California rent control law.
“When the Legislature writes a law and the governor signs it, it’s the law, it’s not a suggestion, it’s not a recommendation, it’s not a ‘if you want to,’” said Bonta.Under the terms of a settlement filed in Santa Clara County Superior Court, Green Valley, which also does business under the namethe California Tenant Protection Act is the law of California and that law will be enforced,” said San Francisco City Attorney David Chiu, who authored the 2019 law when he was in the Assembly.
Tenant rights groups have decried the 2019 law as toothless ever since it took effect. Bonta’s announcement of the state’s first-ever enforcement action amounts to a very public flashing of fangs. The law also requires landlords to put forward a “just cause” before evicting a tenant without compensation. Justifiable reasons include not paying rent, breaching the terms of a lease agreement or engaging in criminal activity on the premises of the rental property.or expand existing ones. When lawmakers agreed to implement a statewide cap in 2019, it was a historic break from a decades-long aversion to anything that even smelled of rent control.
