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 Santa Clara City Council is scheduled to vote on the final approval of the Agrihood development on Tuesday, January 29th, 2019. This approval, originally scheduled for October 9th 2018, has already been pushed back five times.

SV@Home has endorsed the Agrihood as a great model of highly affordable, dense, transit-oriented development. Click here to read more and sign on to our petition to support 361 new homes, of which 181 will be affordable housing!

This is a critical project that would bring significant affordable housing to Santa Clara, and we encourage all of our partners to come and speak in support of the Agrihood  at the City Council meeting on January 29th! If you are interested in speaking, please email mitch@svathome.org.
