�� TENANTS <br />v. TOGETHER <br />November 4th, 2019 <br />Dear Santa Ana city council members, <br />Tenants Together has been alerted by residents of your city that renters are facing mass evictions <br />and rent increases before the state law Assembly Bill 1482, the law that bans no-fault evictions <br />and curbs rent gouging, goes into effect on 1/l/2020. A temporary moratorium on no-fault <br />evictions and rent gouging is needed now as property owners try to skirt the law in the coming <br />year. Across the state as well as in your city, we are witnessing an unprecedented wave of greed <br />and callousness by landlords. <br />We urge you to take action now and protect tenants by passing the legislation that your <br />constituents are calling for, and enacting a city-wide rent increase cap and no-fault eviction <br />moratorium. Already, Los Angeles, Milpitas, Redwood City, Daly City, Santa Cruz, and Bell <br />Gardens have passed similar protections, and many other cities are considering doing so as well. <br />Tenants cannot use the protections in AB 1482 for their current housing if they are evicted or <br />priced -out from their unit before the law is in effect. As California's statewide organization for <br />renters' rights, Tenants Together is in support of the protections being proposed within your city <br />by renters. We need a rent increase cap and no-fault eviction moratorium now! <br />Sincerely, <br />Digitally signed by Aimee Inglis <br />DN: cn=Aimee Inglis, o=Tenants Together, ou, <br />email=amee@cenantstogether.org, c=US <br />Date: 2019.11.0416.53:36-08'00' <br />Aimee Inglis, Program Director <br />TENANTS TOGETHER <br />California's Statewide Organization <br />for Renters' Rights <br />www.tenantstogether.org <br />
