PROPOSITION 33 Local Government Residential Rent Control
Failed CA · 2024-11-05
In plain English
This measure would allow local governments to set limits on how much landlords can raise rent on residential properties. It would remove a state law that currently prevents local governments from making their own rent control rules.
If this passes
What would actually change. No predictions, no opinions.
- Local governments could create rent control laws for residential housing in their areas
- Landlords would be subject to local rent increase limits set by their city or county
- A state law that blocked local rent control would no longer apply
- Each local government could set different rent control rules based on their own decisions
