Subject:October 28 Study Session on Tenant Protections: Agenda Item 5a
Dear Mayor, Councilmembers, and Staff:
Thank you for making renter protections a part of our major city goals, and for your commitment to
ensuring safe and stable housing for every resident of San Luis Obispo. The time and energy staff put into
engaging with stakeholders and the report prepared, covered the gaps to ensure all rental units meet
basic habitability standards, potential policies to prevent tenant evictions without cause or justification,
and allowed the City to collect basic information on our rental stock that can be used to formulate
effective policy. Programs such as these have been successful in many other cities and Counties
across California and the nation. I sincerely hope we continue to move forward on these tenant
protections.
It is tantamount that everyone has safe and stable housing. Safety and stability allow me to experience
peace of mind. I wish this to be one of the goals for all members of our community to
experience. Peaceful people create peaceful, positive, communities.
Let's create this change by creating safe and stable housing protections for tenants.
Thank you.
