Local anti-rent gouging authority; civil penalty.

Summary

The bill lets cities and counties adopt anti‑rent gouging ordinances that cap annual rent hikes at a locally calculated allowance of up to 3% and require a 90‑day written notice. It creates a local board (or allows delegation to an existing body) to set rules and handle exemption requests, while the locality may impose civil penalties for non‑compliance. The measure targets landlords, with certain facilities exempt, and aims to protect renters from steep rent spikes.
