After passing a much-anticipated rent stabilization ordinance last month which was finalized by the city council March 5, the City of Concord said Monday it will suspend its implementation.
CONCORD – The ordinance was scheduled to go into effect on April 4, but now the policy may end up in the hands of the voters.On Friday, Concord's city clerk received a proposed referendum petition, indicating plans to gather signatures to place a referendum on ordinance the November ballot. The city said Monday its city attorney has 10 business days to prepare and issue an impartial summary.
The ordinance amends Concord Municipal Code Chapter 19.40 Residential Tenant Protection Program and increases the 'just cause' eviction protections, expands the city's rent registry, and establishes a rent stabilization program. Single-family homes would not be subject to the proposed ordinance. Neither would rented condominium units or rented accessory dwelling units.
