 Understanding the Issue\n\nPresented by: Erik Ericksen and Byers\n\nThe 
 Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act is a decades-old California law that 
 limits the application of cities' rent control ordinances. What are the 
 restrictions? Single family homes and condominiums are exempt from rent 
 control under this state law. Also exempted is any apartment built after 
 1995, when Costa Hawkins was passed. Costa Hawkins also requires vacancy 
 decontrol, which prohibits cities from having a say in how much a landlord 
 can raise the rent after a tenant voluntarily moves out.\n\nHelp Gather 
 Signatures for the Costa-Hawkins repeal. We will have materials and 
 instructions.\n\n\n• Mountain View Rent Control Campaign 2016: Winning
