Set annual fees landlords pay to fund rent control program

Police & Community SafetyBudgetResolution

In Plain English

The city charges landlords annual fees to fund rent control enforcement and tenant services. The Rent Board recommends $226 per controlled rental unit and $127 per partially covered unit for 2022-23. The General Fund previously contributed $106,000 to $130,000 annually, but this budget eliminates that subsidy.
