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.

Yuju is passionate about community engagement and addressing institutional racism within urban planning and housing policy that has resulted in segregation and inequity.

Prior to SV@Home, Yuju worked at the Urban Institute in Washington D.C. as a Research Analyst conducting research on policy issues that intersected with housing instability and has also worked with the Terner Center for Housing Innovation and the Center for Community Innovation at UC Berkeley on housing policy research. In her free time, she enjoys frequenting local pastry shops, going to the beach, and exploring new neighborhoods. Yuju holds a B.A. in Sociology from Bryn Mawr College with a minor in Education and is completing her M.S. in City and Regional Planning from UC Berkeley.
