AN ACT RELATING TO PROPERTY -- RESIDENTIAL LANDLORD AND TENANT ACT -- JUST CAUSE EVICTIONS
03/18/2026 Committee recommended measure be held for further study
Summary
The bill amends the Residential Landlord and Tenant Act to limit evictions to specific, listed reasons and adds new definitions. It applies to most rental units but exempts owner‑occupied buildings with fewer than five units, small owner‑managed properties, sublets reclaimed for personal use, and units tied to employment or other state/federal rent‑control rules. The change aims to protect tenants from arbitrary removal.
