Good morning, Redwood City.
This morning, the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors is holding a special session to study protections for renters in unincorporated parts of the County. A draft ordinance co-sponsored by Sup. Warren Slocum and Sup. Noelia Corzo presented this morning proposes protections for renters including:
– Notice and language access requirements
– Anti-retaliation and anti-harassment provisions
– More protective ' just cause ' eviction provisions
– 'Fair chance' requirements related to prospective tenants with past criminal justice system involvement
– Protection from eviction during the school year for educators and students
Read the draft ordinance, or view this presentation which highlights the main ideas.
