Summary

The bill creates a protected class of tenants – those 62 or older, those with a serious disability, or those who have lived in a building of five or more units (or a mobile home park) for at least a year. Landlords may only evict these tenants for a narrow set of reasons and any rent hike must be deemed fair and equitable. It also requires landlords to give written notice of these protections when a lease is signed or renewed.
