Bill to Extend Notice Period for Eviction Process Derailed in Assembly
A bill to extend California’s notice period for nonpayment of rent from three days to 14 failed to garner enough votes to pass out of the Assembly Judiciary Committee, the California Apartment Association (CAA) said. CAA was part of a broad coalition of business, real estate and rental housing organizations that helped derail the measure, at least for the time being.
SB436, introduced by Sen. Aisha Wahab, had already been approved by the Senate and moved over to the Assembly this week for consideration. In addition to lengthening the notice period, the legislation would require landlords to include language in their notices informing tenants that the eviction process can be stopped by paying all rent owed.
In a letter opposing the measure, the coalition wrote, “This proposal is not narrowly targeted; rather, it imposes a universal mandate that undermines existing lease agreements and the principle of timely rent collection that underpins housing operations across California.”
