FOOTHILL APARTMENT ASSOCIATION NEWS UPDATE
L.A. COUNTY IS CONTINUING ITS LOCAL MORATORIUM UNDER THE NAME “TENANT PROTECTIONS”
Despite the comprehensive assistance to renters and emergency regulations provided through the state and federal government, increased vaccine availability and the full reopening of the economy; the Board of Supervisors are effectively allowing tenants to exploit any number of well established laws as provided by legal contract.
As of June 1st we are currently in Phase II of the County’s three phase plan.
PHASE II (JUNE 1, 2022 – DEC. 31, 2022)
Eviction Protections for residential tenants and mobile home space renters continued through December 31,2022:
• Rent increase freeze (including new pass- throughs or related charges) for rent-stabilized units in unincorporated areas of the County.
• Personal guarantee protection for smaller (0-9 employees) commercial tenants.
• Adds (Effective July 1, 2022) eviction protections for nonpayment of rent due to a COVID-19 financial hardship, including self- certification to establish affirmative defense, only for households with income at or below 80% Area Median Income (AMI) for rent incurred on or after July 1, 2022.
• Lifts the following protections:
• Protections against eviction for denying entry to landlord, except when the entry constitutes harassment
• Owner Move-Ins:
• Removes the purchase date (6/30/2021) requirement; and the requirement that tenants not be financially impacted by COVID-19 for Owner Move-Ins to be allowed.
Please write your local Supervisor calling on them to end the rent freeze in the unincorporated areas of L.A. County and restore the rights and responsibilities of tenants and landlords established by the legal contracts to which they have agreed.
