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 Housing Choices as part of Affordable Housing Month 2021. 

Housing Choices will facilitate a panel of people of color with disabilities who will invite you into their homes and tell you their housing story. Their lived experience will deepen your understanding of the reality behind the data showing that in San Mateo County when a person experiences the intersectional discriminatory policies and practices against both People of Color and people with disabilities, already significant housing disparities are made worse. Learn how people of color with disabilities are organizing and speaking up to address the impact of high rent, discrimination, segregation, overcrowding, unhealthy housing conditions and displacement. Listen, learn and recharge your passion for affordable housing that is truly inclusive of people of all races, incomes, and abilities.
