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.

The public is invited to this virtual meeting and update by staff from Housing Department and the Planning Division, who will inform this City Council committee of the status of the AFH and Housing Element work; the approval process and project timelines; and examples of types of strategies that could go into the draft Housing Element. There will be time for public comments at the meeting, and this public input is valued.
