Set annual fees for rental housing units subject to rent control
$239
In Plain English
The city charges fees to landlords who own rent-controlled apartments to fund the Rent Program, which enforces rent limits and handles tenant disputes. Fees increase to $239 per fully controlled unit and $136 per partially controlled unit for the fiscal year starting July 1. If approved, landlords typically pass these costs to tenants through rent increases.
