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.

Please join Senator Connie M. Leyva and the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) for a webinar on the Emergency Rental and Utility Assistance Program. This program is available to California residents, particularly for individuals and families living in mobilehomes / manufactured homes, who have been affected by COVID-19 and are past due on their rent and or utilities, or are in danger of being evicted. 

Although changes in the eviction protections are coming on September 30, it is not too late to apply for assistance. The COVID-19 pandemic has worsened California’s housing crisis in communities across our state, so it is important that we continue to offer information and resources to affected residents. 

Mobilehomes provide a critical option for affordable housing in our state and we will offer up-to-date information regarding rental assistance to residents living in mobilehomes and manufactured homes.

Watch the livestream on Senator Leyva’s website or on Facebook.

Questions?

Please email your questions no later than 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday,

September 28, so we have enough time to review ahead of the webinar. 

Submit your questions to Eric.Guerra@sen.ca.gov with “Mobilehome Webinar” in the subject line and the name of your mobilehome park in the message. We will do our best to answer all emailed questions during the event. For questions not addressed due to time constraints, our Select Committee staff will follow up with individuals to get their questions answered.
