Good afternoon City Council,
I am writing to respectfully request that you vote against item #14 on today's City Council Agenda.
The repercussions of the devastating fires of January 2025 continue to deeply affect our community and willdosoforyearstocome.The proposed rules place additional requirements on property owners without offering any support or compensation from the city to offset increased costs and zero revenue, creating an extremely challenging business environment for those who manage and maintain rental housing in Pasadena.
Furthermore, Los Angeles County supervisors have already established eviction moratoriums, and the state offers tenant protections against price gouging. Pasadena also has one of the most intricate and expensive rent protection systems in the state, with a dozen Rental Stabilization Department employees dedicated to providing free counseling and services to Pasadena tenants in addition to the long-standing support from the Housing Department staff. This proposed law does not help Pasadena recover from the fires and only adds to the regulatory and financial burdens without any obvious benefits to the many residents of the city that are struggling to move forward in 2025.
Thank you for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Adam
