Add new Staff Attorney position for Rent Program legal work
In Plain English
The Rent Program currently lacks dedicated legal staff to handle tenant-landlord disputes and enforcement cases. The city wants to create a new attorney position specifically for rent control issues. If approved, the Rent Program gets its own lawyer instead of sharing city attorney resources.
