CAA’s months of meetings with the West Hollywood City Council and staff helped thwart a move to require an annual rent registry for owners of market-rate units.
Instead of the rent registry, the West Hollywood council opted this week for an alternative proposal that would:
- Increase tenant landlord outreach
- Add posting requirements for non-rent-controlled units
- Ask landlords to provide information on rent increases to prospective tenants
- Contract with an outside company for yearly analysis of market conditions on rental properties in West Hollywood.
City staff will now draft the alternative ordinance. Stay tuned for updates at caanet.org.
