Immediate Protection to Renters org/planning. In early October, Governor Gavin Newsom signed California Assembly Bill (AB) 1482, which provides protection to tenants statewide starting on January 1, 2020. After its passage, the City Council and City staff experienced an increase in tenant complaints about rent hikes and evictions. In response, at its October 28 meeting the City Council passed an urgency ordinance providing tenants with rent stabilization and just cause eviction protections similar to those contained in AB 1482. The City’s ordinance became effective on October 29, 2019 and will remain in effect until December 31, 2019. The statewide measure takes effect on January 1. The goal of the urgency ordinance is to keep tenants in their homes, and to reduce the impacts of displacement in our community. The ordinance limits rent increases to 9%. It also prohibits owners from terminating a tenancy without just cause if the tenant has lived in a unit for 12 months or more.

The “New Port” Seemed Safe From Encroachment By 1937, well entrenched in the so-called industrial area, the Port appeared “safe” from the kind of development encroachment that surrounded it when it was in downtown during Redwood City’s pioneering days. Nearly $1 Billion In Development Built Around The Port Since 1985 Since 1985, and continuing today, major R&D and office park development has occurred on both sides of the Port. In fact, in the past 2 years both major developments were sold to new owners – for a combined $932,000 million. And the buyers of the older R&D are pledging to spend another $100 million to upgrade, bringing the total value to more than $1 BILLION DOLLARS.
