Concerning tenant relocation assistance.

Summary

  • Under RLTA, landlords must provide tenants with 90 days' written notice for any new rule of tenancy, including a change in the amount of rent charged. The state law authorizing tenant relocation assistance is amended so that local jurisdictions may authorize assistance to tenants whose household earns up to 80 percent of the area's median income, adjusted for family size, in the county where the tenants reside.
