Fair Rents, Fair Bills: Understanding Rent & Utility Regulations

JOIN US VIRTUALLY ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 17TH 12PM

Join us for a learning session about San José’s Rent Stabilization Program and possible updates to the city’s rules on how utilities are billed in rental housing (known as Ratio Utility Billing Services, or RUBS).

We’ll break down:

  • What rent stabilization means
  • How RUBS works
  • And what these proposed changes could mean for renters and housing providers

You’ll also learn how to share your feedback and get involved as the city considers these updates and how it can impact you.

This event is hosted by City of San José Office of Economic Development as part of Affordable Housing Month 2021.

The City of San José has launched, San José Housing Site Explorer, an interactive, web-based map and data site to help identify potential sites of new housing development. The application can be used to apply a wide variety of filters to search for properties in the City that meet specific criteria. Every property in the City has a detailed parcel page that offers a wide variety of relevant data. The City is also adding pre-defined filter sets that flag properties of interest, for instance, properties that meet  the criteria for the City’s “1.5-acre” rule that allows for infill affordable development on commercial properties.

On May 17th, City staff will conduct a brief demonstration of San José Housing Site Explorer and be available to answer any questions or take your feedback on how it can be improved.
