What’s in it

This bill relates to county and city regulation of rental housing and federal housing choice voucher use. Under current law, a county or a city shall not adopt or enforce an ordinance or regulation that prohibits a person having the right to lease, sublease, or rent out a dwelling unit from refusing to rent a dwelling out to a person because the person is using a federal housing choice voucher. A “dwelling unit” means a structure or the part of a structure that is used as a home, residence, or sleeping place. The bill strikes this prohibition on counties and cities.
