San Pablo leaders emphasize the need for education on tenant protection laws instead of stronger rent control to tackle housing insecurity. A recent council meeting addressed current housing regulations and potential impacts of rent stabilization policies. The city plans to explore rental regulations, including a temporary housing and relocation fund for displaced individuals. Advocacy group Rising Juntos insists on quicker adoption of policies against rent hikes and unjust evictions. Property owners warn that strict requirements may hinder development and motivation for property improvements.
Rent stability is safety. The fastest way to keep people housed and off the streets is to stabilize rents and stop excessive rent hikes.
The city plans to explore rental regulations as part of its 2025-2027 priority work plan, including establishing a temporary housing fund and relocation fund.
Advocates urge councilmembers to adopt stronger policies like rent control to combat rent hikes and not allow landlords to evict tenants without just cause.
Property owners caution adopting excessive requirements could slow down development and reduce motivations for landlords to improve properties.
