What’s the problem?
Santa Barbara County tenants face a lack of legal protections in the face of unfair evictions.
Low and moderate income renters are displaced when affordable rental units are converted into luxury apartments and condos. Rents have been increasing rapidly and vacancies in rental housing are at historically low levels, making it difficult for renters to locate affordable housing.
What do we want?
We want an ordinance that guarantees legal rights and protections for renters. When a tenant is evicted due to condo conversion, major renovations, or demolitions without having violated the rental agreement or other reasonable cause, we want:
* Relocation benefits;
* Minimum 60 day notice;
* A Santa Barbara County database to document evictions.
