We cannot afford another evictions moratorium! Housing providers throughout Chula Vista and our neighboring areas have worked throughout the pandemic to support their tenants. In fact, studies show that housing providers in San Diego and Riverside Counties lost approximately $3.8 billion in rental income during the pandemic. Meanwhile, state and federal funds are available to support struggling tenants and there is no evidence of mass evictions taking place! We know that evictions are necessary for several reasons, not the least of which includes removing problematic and even dangerous tenants that could otherwise be a threat to the safety of our Chula Vista families. Please protect our neighborhoods and work to advance sensible solutions that will expand our supply of safe and affordable housing options.

As a Chula Vista property owner providing rental property and as a Realtor, I am speaking strongly against the ordinance of "restrictions of tenant evictions".
Our housing shortage & restrictive ordinances will make a bad situation even worse. * It is difficult already to operate as a small time housing providers This ordinance will deter the creation of new housing opportunities because housing providers will provide housing in other places. * These restrictions complicate your housing owners' transactions to sell. * When owners cannot make decisions on their financial needs, the desirability of living in our city will drop. Our entire community will suffer.
There has been zero investigation of the need for another eviction moratorium. When in reality, research will show terribly restrictive laws governing rental housing in other cities, for years, has been detrimental. A solution is not needed when in fact there is no tenant abuse problem on any scale whatsoever, There may well be antidotal stories of tenants being treated poorly but they are not the norm nor the majority by any measure.
I attended the last Council Meeting when this was discussed and a comment about the elephant in the room being our housing crisis of housing shortage is where all efforts should be exerted. Until the supply is addressed, there will be a growing housing shortage & thus high rents.
Linda A Corcoran
We have out lined several talking points in opposition of Rent Control and a NEW Eviction Moratorium below:
Rent control advocates are asking the Chula Vista Mayor and City Council for another eviction moratorium in Chula Vista.
There is a critical shortage of housing in Chula Vista, and creating additional regulations for housing providers would make the problem worse in several ways:
-It would make it harder for housing providers to operate their units. -It would deter the creation of new housing opportunities due to the added difficulties of operating in Chula Vista. -It would complicate transactions where sellers currently have tenants on their property.
There has been no research to determine the need for the request for another eviction moratorium. We have not seen the mass evictions that had been predicted. Additionally, funds from the Emergency Rent and Utility Assistance Program (ERAP) are currently available and applications can be submitted through the end of March.
Michelle Peters
Another evictions moratorium SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED! Landlords and property owners throughout San Diego County have worked throughout the pandemic to support their tenants. In fact, studies show that housing providers in San Diego and Riverside Counties lost approximately $3.8 billion in rental income during the pandemic. Meanwhile, state and federal funds are available to support struggling tenants and there is no evidence of mass evictions taking place!

We cannot afford another evictions moratorium! I have worked with landlords, mostly small mom and pop providers throughout Chula Vista and our neighboring areas. They have worked throughout the pandemic to support their tenants. In fact, studies show that housing providers in San Diego and Riverside Counties lost approximately $3.8 billion in rental income during the pandemic. Meanwhile, state and federal funds are available to support struggling tenants and there is no evidence of mass evictions taking place! I have worked with the programs to allow the tenants to stay in place. We know that evictions are necessary for several reasons, not the least of which includes removing problematic and even dangerous tenants that could otherwise be a threat to the safety of our Chula Vista families. Please protect our neighborhoods and work to advance sensible solutions that will expand our supply of safe and affordable housing options. Providing a positive workaround with landlords helps the tenants stay in place. Putting up rules and infringing on private property rights is not going to promote a positive result.
Chris C
My mom has struggled. I saw her give up vacations, parties, never celebrated her birthday because she wanted for us to not struggle as much as she did. She grew up very poor, 7 siblings sleeping in one bedroom with her mom. She worked hard and taught us to do the same. She sacrificed a lot to make sure she could buy another house for us to move into after we came back from college or got married. Well that was her dream. Her American dream. Now it is a nightmare. Thanks to the rent contols and the city of Chula Vista, my mom told us we might not be able to move back into our house. All the sacrifices, all the times we shared one burrito with 3 siblings so we could have enought to buy a house to inherit now down the drain. Have you thought of how your abrupt decisions will affect families? Has anyone considered the fact that many tenants do destroy our house, and it takes thousands to get it ready to rent again? I learned that many that call themselves victims are not, and those that are trully in need of help are too embarrased to ask for help. Many decided to misuse their stimulus checks. The city of Chula Vista received millions to help those that can't pay their rent. This is attracting many to try to rent here. Maybe that is causing the housing shortage.Please stop the irrational restrictions that can cause me to be homeless so someone else can keep what my mom bought for us.
Kevin O'Neill
For every action there is a reaction. If a landlord has to pay relocation at market rates, he/she will be bound to raise the rent the statutory maximum each year out of self interest.
I do not raise the rent if I have a good tenant as I want stability, the same thing the tenant wants.
There are some tenants that don't fit well with the other tenants and a good landlord will not renew their tenancy for the good of the other tenants.
I strongly advise that CV not increase the "protections" beyond those set by the State.
Anya
I am writing again because my family and I try to be good neighbors, we pay rent on time and follow the rental agreement. Our landlord is nice or whatever they are calling them now. But the other tenants, disrespect and attack a nice person and that is out of hand. They are loud, smoke weed, and they don't care if children are around. We complained when we pay the rent. But we were told that because of the moratorium they could not be kicked out. We thought of moving. But WHY should we be the ones to move? Why should they stay when they are the ones causing problems? They spend their stimulus money on beer, drugs and don't respect people. They make fun of us because we paid the rent. The city wants rules to make it harder for the bad tenants to be kicked out of good communities. what If we want to move? There will be less houses available because the bad tenants will be allowed to keep the house. Why are you trying to punish good tenants and call those that let us rent their house criminals? Please stop a bigger injustice. I decided you need to hear the truth.
Bella
As a tenant I used to be able to find housing and develop a good tenant housing provider relationship. Lately it's been more challenging. Why? because all these threats to the ownership of the property is causing fear and less flexibility. Let's be real, the people offering their life savings to help someone like me have a house to call a home are not criminals. But even I can see how they are being treated as criminals for the actions of the 1%. Misplaced anger taking a hit at the weaker group because the politicians and elected officials are afraid to go after the real wrong doers is a crime. Please stop this insane attack that is creating a bigger problem. Place reasonable trainings and workshops for us tenants to get information on what it means to sign a rental agreement. It is important to understand that if we do not like the rules under the contract it is a right to walk away and find something else. Thank you.
Virginia Gibbs
The State of California already has programs and protections in place to ensure evictions are not a result of abuse. Please do not allow the actions of two property owners to project the entire property owner population of which many are small Mom and Pops who abide by State regulations. There has been no research to determine the need for the request for another eviction moratorium. We have not seen the mass evictions that had been predicted. Additionally, funds from the Emergency Rent and Utility Assistance Program (ERAP) are currently available and applications can be submitted through the end of March.
Peter Carlseen
Small landlords have been extremely hard hit during COVID, some facing lost revenue in the tens of thousands of dollars or more. Continuing the possibility of this financial hemorrhage would be irresponsible to say the least. Landlords, who provide clean, safe, habitable and desirable housing, should not be arbitrarily targeted. Denying rent to them is synonymous to illegal seizure of their assets. There is a place for compassion and help and assistance but not under force by those who represent us. Punishing all for the actions of very few will have an overall detrimental long-term effect on the housing supply for Chula Vista residents. Violations of current law should be investigated and enforced before additional laws are put in place unilaterally. Financial assistance can be found through various organizations. If additional funds are needed, please seek those from people and organizations who are willing to assist.
Peter codallos
I truly believe This ordinance will not be beneficial to the renters, it will discourage investors, it may encourage the sales to investors who will take the rentals off the market, loosing the rental properties that Chula Vista so desperately needs. I believe this is Losing proposition for all.
Dolores Sexton
The State of California already has programs and protections in place to ensure evictions are not a result of abuse. The city must substantiate any further eviction moratoriums with actual data that shows negative impacts on the community due to the initial covid shutdowns. We need to move on from the covid plan and on to more constructive planning for the citizens of Chula Vista. If the best interest of the people is truly the aim of these regulations then lets start working on truly helping those that need housing or have been unjustly evicted. Blanket policies and programs without true data to back them should be taken off the table. Eviction memorandums are not necessary in our City, if they are, then lets take a look at the data, and lets all vote on the best solution. Let the citizens decide.

Gabriel Guzman
Support the passing of an Ordinance that would protect tenants from no fault evictions and that would close some of the loopholes that landlords are using to evict tenants. Chula Vista is going through gentrification and it needs to be stopped M.D. Horner
Enough is enough - it's time for the city officials to side with homeowners. Personally, I am contemplated selling my rental property because the risks are becoming too high. Homeowners are still on the hook for the expenses associated with homeownership so why can't renters be accountable?? The city is taking a temporary event and proposing long lasting provisions and one side is paying a higher price.
Delia Dominguez Cervantes
There has NOT been a tsunami as many claimed and the State protections are set to end on March 31. More funding for rental assistance has been made available. Housing providers have spent the last few years doing everything possible to help their residents stay housed. Pandemic related regulations contninue to be rescinded and adjusted. Now is not the time to go backwards with an Eviction Moratorium. The permanent regulations being proposed are in response to issues at two rental properties.This is OVER Reactive. There has been no research to substantiate the need for permanent regulations far more restrictive than state law. AND, there has been no study of the economic impacts of such dramatic proposals.
Silvia Saldivar
As a renter and life long resident of Chula Vista, tenants need stronger protections against evictions and harassment. The temporary Statewide protections, protecting many families are expiring at the end at this month. If nothing is done legal resources will be saturated, and many people will end up leaving without knowing their rights. An eviction moratorium would be a step in the right direction, especially with landlords leaving comments saying they are confused with the laws. An eviction moratorium would provide landlords more time to brush up on the laws, and provide tenants who have most likely been impacted by the pandemic with more time to find a new place to live or legally fight their eviction. A priority of the mayor and city council should be to make sure less families are on the streets or housing insecure. If an eviction moratorium is passed landlords are still able to evict tenants for public health and safety reasons, which makes sure we are not putting each other at risk and look out for those who simply have no other option of where else to go. Please protect the renters who have not had the privilege of buying multiple houses to have enough time to be able to talk to a legal aid lawyer about their options, and not be intimidated into leaving.

Please vote against rent control in Chula Vista. Sixty days is sufficient notice for a landlord to give a tenant. These proposed regulations are unnecessary and would place an unfair penalty on the people who have worked their entire lives to invest in their local community.
Margaret Baker
South Bay People Power calls on City Councilmembers to pass an emergency moratorium on evictions until stronger tenant protections are passed. We also urge the expedited passage of much-needed renter protections. Unfortunately, the statewide temporary tenant protection act (AB 832) is set to expire at the end of March, leaving many Chula Vista families to face 60-day and 3-day eviction notices without any recourse, and at a time when free legal resources are limited and overwhelmed. Local tenants and advocacy organizations have been working with the City to pass a measure that would close existing loopholes in current law and protect the rights of renters. Now is the time to act to avoid the devastation of family displacement, community disruption and homelessness in our city. Chula Vista needs to demonstrate that is WELCOMES and supports families of all socioeconomic status - especially in times of trouble.

Diane Hemry
As an owner of rental property, I am seriously contemplating removing my home from the rental market and either sell or use for family only. I also am encouraging owners to rethink their investment and considering selling their property now as it is growing more and more burdensome on the owner of one or two single family homes to consider this a dependable investment. This CV ordinance will shrink the supply of quality rental homes.
Victor Kolesnichenko
It is just another attempt to shift responsibility from government to the sholders of landlords.
For thoses of you who is pushing for this proposition I offer a simple solution: you personaly pay for the rent of that people who cannot (or may may not want - why pay if it is not mandatory?) do it or take then into your houses.
George Ching
As a lifelong resident of Chula Vista, I am writing to express my opposition to the concept of creating additional regulations for housing providers. If we want more housing to be available in our City, we need to nurture the conditions that allow for that, and adding another eviction moratorium would take us in the wrong direction.
Theresa Guemes
Further tenant protection will simply hurt the community at large. There are enough protective measures in place where landlords and tenants can work together. Placing further restrictions on landlords will simply hurt the already strained rental housing supply and hinder property improvements.
Richard DAscoli
We do not fully understand how AB1482 (Statewide Rent Control) is impacting housing. We do know that it is limiting the incentive to build new homes. There is a great deal of confusion about these new laws and how they will impact our neighborhoods. Prices are increasing and very few new units are being built. There is little data or information to support the idea that we are in the middle of a widespread problem in our city. We have seen isolated incidents of alleged abuse, and there are laws to deal with these issues. According to the US Census, there are more than 32,000 rental units in Chula Vista. We do not need sweeping new ordinances to resolve a few dozen complaints which should be resolved under existing state laws. To date, we have not seen the mass evictions that had been predicted. Additionally, funds from the Emergency Rent and Utility Assistance Program (ERAP) are currently available and applications can be submitted through the end of March. It looks like much of the $8m made available will not be used by the end of the month. michael ford
please register my firm opposition to any eviction moratorium or other limitation on the use of rental units. I am informed that some entity might try to end run the process by having it be an "emergency". the facts have not borne out the need for this Matt Ruane

Tony Pauker
Please do not pass the unnecessary tenant protections that only duplicate State actions. And please dont enact another evistion moritorium. Most apartments in Chula Vista are owned by mom and pop land lords who will be greatly harmed by more regulations. The state has a robust set of tenant protections.
Thomas J Corcoran
I agree with Mr. Thompson regarding evictions. There are already sufficient protections for tenants.
As we emerge from the hardships of the last two years, it would seem counterintuitive to impose even tighter restrictions on landlords. There is a shortage of rental units in the City; imposing draconian eviction restrictions would be a disincentive for creating more.
Kathy Cappos Hardy
It has been heartwarming to witness the love, support, food and shelter that the people of Poland have provided for their Ukrainian neighbors who have had their lives upended by a brutal and senseless war. It would be just as beautiful to see our Mayor and City Council place a moratorium on evictions for Chula Vistans whose lives have been upended by COVID. Homelessness is already rampant in our community. It’s hard to imagine how the numbers of homeless will soar if such protections are not in place. I am asking for the Mayor and Council Members to do the right thing for our most vulnerable community members by placing a moratorium on evictions until a more permanent solution can be found.
Mitch Thompson
You will be hearing from some residents spurred on by a local tenant advocacy group CV alled ACCE requesting a moratorium on evictions. I am a small landlord with a handful of rentals in Chula Vista. Adopting any form of eviction control will make it more difficult to operate my units which provide me with my retirement income. Please be advised that there has not been an eviction tsunami as many claimed. And while state protections are set to end on March 31, more funding for rental assistance has been made available for tenants. I and other housing providers have spent the last few years doing everything possible to help residents stay housed. Pandemic-related regulation continues to be rescinded and adjusted. Now is not the time to adopt an Eviction Moratorium. The permanent regulations being proposed by ACCE are in response to issues at just two rental properties and do not represent current conditions in Chula Vista. There has been no research to substantiate the need for permanent regulations far more restrictive than state law and would act to the detriment of many good owners in Chula Vista.
Furthermore, there has been no study of the economic impacts of such dramatic proposals.
The public may address the Council on any matter within the jurisdiction of the Council but not on the agenda.
