Western Center's bill to make permanent the requirement that landlords give tenants 60 days' notice of a no-fault eviction passed the Assembly on 3rd September. It now moves to the Governor's office for approval. The bill, SB 290 (Leno, D-San Francisco), gives tenants more time to move when they are evicted through no fault of their own (e.g., a sale, owner move-in, or major rehab). The current law is set to sunset (expire) this year. SB 290 makes permanent longer notice, which is vital in helping low-income tenants secure replacement housing they can afford, keeping children in schools without disruptive mid-year changes, and allows disabled renters a better chance at obtaining affordable, accessible housing.
