Dear Councilmembers:

I am wriƟng to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10‐B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future. Since the adopƟon of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement. Santa Monica must conƟnue to be second to none in renter protecƟons, and at a minimum should enact the new protecƟons that the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted. Please VOTE YES to FORMALLY ADOPT the EXPANSION OF RENTER PROTECTIONS ORDINANCE as fully prescribed in Item 10‐B. Thank you.

Dear Councilmembers:

I love my apartment in Santa Monica; while it’s not a house, it is my home. I fear being in a David vs. Goliath situation in the future that will force me and others to leave our “homes" involuntarily due to lengthy construction projects brought on by the mammoth real estate corporation that owns my building. This “Goliath” I fear will see an opportunity to clear out all us rent‐controlled residents, some who are elderly living in their “homes” for decades, via constructive revisions, so that they can then pursue residents at a much higher rent. I, as one person, need protection from this Goliath.

I am writing to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10‐B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future. Since the adoption of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement.

EXTERNAL
Dear Councilmembers:

As someone raised in Santa Monica since I was 2,  who is now facing being pushed out of my hometown despite just graduating from UCLA, because wages don’t match rent prices and the gap keeps increasing; it’s important that we do what we can to protect and expand renters rights.

I am writing to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10‐B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future. Since the adoption of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement. Santa Monica must continue to be second to none in renter protections, and at a minimum should enact the new protections that the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted. Please VOTE YES to FORMALLY ADOPT the EXPANSION OF RENTER PROTECTIONS ORDINANCE as fully prescribed in Item 10‐B.

Thank you for your time and consideration!
‐Sarah B.

Dear Council members:

My name is Norman Duarte, and I have lived in Santa Monica since 1986, and at my current address since 1998. For medical reasons, I’ve been disabled since 2012, and surviving on a very fixed income. My age is 58, so not eligible for rental assistance offered to low income seniors by the city. It is criƟcal, for me, and many others, that all efforts are made to protect rent control in Santa Monica, and do what is needed to give renters the power to protect our tenancies, and keep us housed.

The out of control rent increases that happen in other ciƟes, are cruel and frightening, please act responsibly in your upcoming vote. I write urging you to please vote Yes to formally adopt item 10‐B.

Thank you for your Ɵme,
Norman Duarte

Dear Councilmembers:

I am wriƟng to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10‐B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future.

I have lived in Santa Monica all but 11 of the past 45+ years. Rent control made it possible for me to eventually become a homeowner in Santa Monica.

Affordable housing is a criƟcal community issue. Rent control is an important part of curtailing homelessness! Since the adopƟon of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement. Santa Monica must conƟnue to be second to none in renter protecƟons, and at a minimum should enact the new protecƟons that the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted. Please VOTE YES to FORMALLY ADOPT the EXPANSION OF RENTER PROTECTIONS ORDINANCE as fully prescribed in Item 10‐B. Thank you.

Dear Councilmembers:

Thank you for your time hearing this request in advance and for all you do.

Please vote YES to officially adopt Item 10‐B.

Why:

Supporting this ordinance gives us renters more power to protect our tenancies, our finances, and our future ‐ which are coupled with the power given to a landlord/owner's personal interests..so we beseech you to protect us and the futures we are working so hard for in this city.

Since Rent Control initiated in 1979 (my birth year), Santa Monica has protected renters' rights, against displacement and being mistreated.

I was a recipient of some of these successful efforts twice in the last 3 years ‐ for which I am so grateful for ‐‐ amidst mandatory work in my apartment I've lived in since 2010  ‐ due to pipe water damage, which made my apartment uninhabitable.

I thank God for those who created a sound system for Santa Monica Renters to have their displaced cost of living protected while having to still pay rent where they cannot abide (this was ~2mos I lived in hotels, 2x and travelling much farther for work, having to create a pup‐childcare system (during times at work due to her unable to be in our apartment and barjinggndue to being in an unfamiliar location), all of which increased costs during that period, not to mention not having a kitchen!
THANK YOU. I was able to keep and maintain good work ethic and standards during those periods in my place of work, where I've been now for 15yrs, as a senior Clinical Dietitian helping our state's sickest Liver and Intestinal Transplant patients admitted to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center in Westwood.

I pray and sincerely ask you to help Santa Monica to maintain strict and security‐providing renter protections.  Enacting the new protections the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted, should be done to expand them Santa Monica, so we can continue to safely serve the city and county of LA (and state, in my case, with so many of the sickest turned away at other centers, coming to UCLA as a last resort where we resuscitate and give them new life again). And as I have been faithfully doing, to serve our people all during the pandemic, before and after, with passion and tenacity to bring hope and healing to our brothers and sisters who are ill and suffering.

I urge you to VOTE YES to FORMALLY ADOPT the EXPANSION OF RENTER PROTECTIONS ORDINANCE as fully prescribed in Item 10‐B, so I can continue to serve in my calling and career here, with dedication & focus.

Thank you, again, for your time and your listening ear... to those you govern and serve, like me.

I am writing to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10‐B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future. Since the adoption of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement. Santa Monica must continue to be second to none in renter protections, and at a minimum should enact the new protections that the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted. Please VOTE YES to FORMALLY ADOPT the EXPANSION OF RENTER PROTECTIONS ORDINANCE as fully prescribed in Item 10‐B. Thank you.

Dear Council Member,
Please Vote Yes to Formally  Adopt the Expansion of Renter Protections Ordinance 10‐B.

I'm now a retired school teacher, but I moved to Santa Monica 20 years ago so my son could go to SaMoHi. He's in his 30s now and a college graduate in Oregon, but because of Rent Control, I was able to stay in the little apartment we got back then and still afford to live in this wonderful city on my modest pension. I love Santa Monica and greatly appreciate your work on the council. Yes, we face the problems of modern urban life, like most places, but our city council gives me hope that Santa Monica will continue to address our difficult issues with thoughtful, kind and compassionate policies, including the expansion of renter protections in Item 10‐B.

Thanks and best regards,

Dear Councilmembers:

Quoted text: "I am writing to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10-B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future. Since the adoption of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement. Santa Monica must continue to be second to none in renter protections, and at a minimum should enact the new protections that the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted. Please VOTE YES to FORMALLY ADOPT the EXPANSION OF RENTER PROTECTIONS ORDINANCE as fully prescribed in Item 10-B. Thank you." My 2 cents:

Long time SM resident here (since 1995 - with a few years in San Fran and Boston for work).

With great respect and admiration for your service, I would like to request that you vote to pass Item 10-B.

The continued support and strengthening of renters' rights in Santa Monica is vital to preserve the health and vitality of our great city. I do NOT live in a rent controlled property; however, I am a renter and have benefitted in ancillary ways from the pro-renter slant of SM codes, standards and practices.

My landlord is not perfect, nor am I, but we peacefully coexist in a system that respects the reality of both sides needing to be awarded some power. Land owners have an inordinate level of control and power in the US system, and this includes SM and CA. SM's mild use of ordinances to guide landlords to temper their harsher capitalist instincts is a good thing. A greater service to the overall "look and feel" of our community than could ever be measured.

The obvious signs of "gentrification" and "development" are all around us on a daily basis. Just drive north on Lincoln from Ocean Park Blvd (yes, it's a Blvd!) and count the cranes (3 right now). But these terms are not bad things either, and I applaud the growth of our city. The continued strengthening of renters' rights will only add to the power of our community to continue to attract new workers, families, etc. to move into our great city, knowing they have the support of the City Council in helping their success in establishing a new life here.

Respectfully,
‐‐‐ Todd

Dear Councilmembers:

I am wriƟng to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10‐B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future. Since the adopƟon of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement. Santa Monica must conƟnue to be second to none in renter protecƟons, and at a minimum should enact the new protecƟons that the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted. Please VOTE YES to FORMALLY ADOPT the EXPANSION OF RENTER PROTECTIONS ORDINANCE as fully prescribed in Item 10‐B. Thank you.

Our doctors are here at UCLA S.M. Being retired and living on a fixed income makes it extremely important for us to remain here. Last year our landlord gave us a buyout offer which we rejected.

Dear Council members,
I urge all of you to vote YES to formally adopt the expansion of renter protections ordinance as prescribed in Item 10‐B
The ordinance will:
 Ensure tenants who receive a bad faith excessive rent increase (i.e. a rent increase imposed with the intent of influencing the tenant to vacate and to get around a just cause eviction requirement) have a defense to any eviction based on a failure to pay that bad faith rent increase;  Mandate permanent relocation financial assistance for tenants in rent controlled or non‐rent controlled units who are facing constructive evictions and are forced to vacate involuntarily;  Provide additional examples of prohibited coercion and intimidation in the Tenant Harassment Ordinance and increase the maximum potential penalty;
 Increase oversight of, and requirements for, tenant buyout agreements;  Prevent housing discrimination based on housing status.

Thank you for your careful consideration

Dear SM City Councilmembers:

I am writing as a SM senior citizen resident, who just last year (2023) after multiple SMRCB Hearings before a SMRCB Hearing Officer appeared before the SM Rent Control Board at a public hearing to testify to the SMRC Bd that I was indeed a tenant in occupancy of my long‐time rent controlled unit.

My landlords, Pacific 1 LLC/Bold Partners LLC own multiple multifamily buildings in LA County, Santa Monica and in other states under various LLCs; their business operating model is to make continual efforts to displace long‐time residents who are protected under SM rent control laws from their homes so that they can get the maximum market rate rents for the units.

I ask the City Council to request from the SMRCB a summary report on my case prior to your final vote, since my particular case is an excellent example of an unethical SM landlord and their management company's effort to displace a long‐time, elderly SM rent control resident. This case is factually well documented and is on‐going, since the SM RENT CONTROL Board voted to rule in my favour in 2023.

Currently, the SMRCB is being taken to the LA County Superior Court/Santa Monica Courthouse for ruling review in an effort to overturn my hard fought victory.
[Please reference Case filing #: 23SMCP00497 ‐ Pacific 1 LLC vs. SMRCB filed 11 Sept 23].

It is due to my unhappy experience that I am writing to the Council urging all members to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10‐B.

I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future.

Since the adoption of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement.

Santa Monica must continue to be second to none in renter protections, and at a minimum should enact the new protections that the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted. Please VOTE YES to FORMALLY ADOPT the EXPANSION OF RENTER PROTECTIONS ORDINANCE as fully prescribed in Item 10‐B. Thank you for your time.

We renters, who consƟtute a majority of our community, rely for housing security on publicly voted charter protecƟons and the ongoing vigilance of the City Council.

Periodically, to counter changing condiƟons and new renter displacement strategies, the Council is called upon to improve Charter provisions, update our tenant protecƟon laws, and affirm their enforcement.  Tonight is such a Ɵme.

I strongly urge your support for Item 10‐B.

Dear Councilmembers:

I am writing to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10‐B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future. Since the adoption of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement. Santa Monica must continue to be second to none in renter protections, and at a minimum should enact the new protections that the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted. Please VOTE YES to FORMALLY ADOPT the EXPANSION OF RENTER PROTECTIONS ORDINANCE as fully prescribed in Item 10‐B. Thank you.

Subject: Please adopt 10‐B
Dear Councilmembers:

I am a senior citizen who has lived in a Santa Monica rent-controlled unit for the past twentyfive years.

Since 2015, my landlords have made two eviction attempts against me.

I prevailed in both suits and am still in my unit. After the second attempt, I filed a harassment lawsuit that settled out of court, and about which I am constrained from saying more.

It was a rough nine years dealing with this, and I was grateful to have the Santa Monica tenant laws to rely upon. Had I not had some training as a paralegal, I might have experienced a very different outcome.

ITEM 10.B.

ITEM 10.B.

January 23, 2024
43 "Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it's time to pause and reflect." - Mark Twain
In this course of these legal actions, I watched the eviction proceedings in the Santa Monica courthouse. Sadly, it had the feel of a kangaroo court, with landlords and process servers swearing they had served the defendants with papers, which, if my experience was any indication, they probably had not —ultimately leading to a default judgment and a lock-out by the sheriff’s department.

The landlords’ attorneys sat on risers behind the bar and were treated like assistants to the court rather than oppositional legal representatives. The whole set-up appeared to favor the landlords.

On my first trip to court to file a motion to quash service, there was a man in the crowd who was dressed like a veteran, accompanied by some sort of advocate. The man pulled one of the landlord attorneys aside, insisting: “The process server committed perjury. I never got notice!” She leaned over and practically spat in his face as she said: “I don’t care!” To see a licensed attorney openly mock due process was appalling.

Based on my experiences, I urge you to strengthen the laws protecting tenants. I fear that Santa Monica landlords will never stop trying to do end-runs around the law, aided and abetted by unscrupulous attorneys, and anything you can do to discourage that behavior and protect the tenants’ rights would be welcome.

The following are not my words, but do reflect my sentiments.

I am writing to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10-B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future.

Since the adoption of Rent Control in 1979, Santa Monica has worked hard to protect our renter residents against displacement. Santa Monica must continue to be second to none in renter protections, and at a minimum should enact the new protections that the City and County of Los Angeles have recently adopted.

Dear Councilmembers:

I have lived in Santa Monica under rent control for 11 years and have never seen more lying, deception, bad behavior and law-breaking from my landlord who owns 30+ rental / airbnb properties in Santa Monica. (This landlord was actually taken to court by the SM Rent Control Board for their "alternate interpretation" of the Ellis Act.)
My landlord has:
- Moved their 90 year old dying father into one of our units in an attempt to gain occupancy. He was in a hospital bed on a feeding tube with 2-3 caretakers and a large set of monitors and could not hold his own head up or get out of bed. They put him in the front room in front of a set of large windows and I saw all of this happening. Unfortunately he was taken away by an ambulance mid-month and never came back.
- Neglected to abide by the city's Measure RC last year, and tried to have me and the other rent control tenants keep paying the increased amount. We knew the deadline, and had to report them to the Rent Control Board who sent them a letter. Then they complied. - Personally harassed me, telling me they "needed my apartment" for a family member, that family member "was going to move in" to "their" unit.
- Made me an off the books financial buyout offer.
- Told me and the other tenants so many lies over the years. One was "we're taking this whole property off of rent control so you should think about moving because your rent is going to go up, way up."
- Tried to evict another set of tenants when they called the city and reported an ongoing raw sewage problem (it's roots in the pipes, but the landlord doesn't want to fix it.) This landlord lied in court and eventually got what they wanted which was a settlement and the tenants leaving. These tenants told me it was the worst 9 months of their lives.
- My landlord owns about 30 properties, many if not most of which are now questionably legal airbnb operations. There are airbnb renters here all the time who tell me why they're renting (in town for the summer, a project, etc.) The landlord will lie and tell me they're tenants every time she has the chance. Tenants don't move out after 2-3 months.
- There are files and letters and documents online that speak to even more underhanded behavior.

These people are deceptive, untruthful and underhanded to the point they'll ignore the law and put family members' health at risk. I'm sure there are more like them. I'm glad I was able to do extensive research into my rights and city / court documents; others might not be so fortunate.

I am writing to urge you to vote YES to formally adopt Item 10-B. I support this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future. Since the ITEM 10.B.

January 23, 2024
2 Last August you answered SMRR's Call to Action and urged Council to EXPAND renter protections as proposed by Councilmember Caroline Torosis. As a result of your voices, the full Council directed staff to draft an ordinance to do just that.

On Tuesday, January 23rd, Council will vote whether or not to adopt the staff drafted ordinance EXPANDING renter protections. It is critical that you write to Council NOW and urge them to VOTE YES! Please include your individual stories about the need for robust renter protections.

Click here and urge Council to vote YES to ADOPT THE EXPANSION of renter protections!
The new renter protections will:
 ensure tenants who receive a bad faith excessive rent increase (i.e. a rent increase imposed with the intent of influencing the tenant to vacate and to get around a just cause eviction requirement) have a defense to any eviction based on a failure to pay that bad faith rent increase;
 mandate permanent relocation financial assistance for tenants in rent controlled or nonrent controlled units who are facing constructive evictions and are forced to vacate involuntarily;
 provide additional examples of prohibited coercion and intimidation in the Tenant Harassment Ordinance and increase the maximum potential penalty;  increase oversight of, and requirements for, tenant buyout agreements;  prevent housing discrimination based on housing status.

You can read the entire agenda item here.

SMRR leadership supports this ordinance because it gives renters more power to protect their tenancies, their finances, and their future.

If you care about your family, your neighbors and yourself, please immediately contact all City Councilmembers and urge them to VOTE YES to ADOPT THE EXPANSION of renter protections! Here’s how:

Your Renters Insurance policy covers:

PERSONAL PROPERTY COVERAGE
Covers your stuff if you experience something like theft or fire. Coverage is worldwide, so even if you're on vacation, you're protected. If you have a covered claim and you need to stay at a hotel, don't worry, we'll reimburse you for additional living expenses.

DEDUCTIBLE
Just like with health insurance,
if you have to use your renter's
policy, a deductible applies. You
selected this when you bought
your policy.

REPLACEMENT COST
Your stuff loses value over time.

If you selected replacement cost,
we'll pay to replace your items at
today's cost. Yes, that includes
your electronics and headphones.

PERSONAL LIABILITY COVERAGE
Covers your responsibility if you accidentally cause damage to your home from fire, smoke, water or an explosion. Without this coverage, you could be on the hook for the cost of repairing your home, which is why we offer various liability coverage limits. It also covers your responsibility if someone were to get hurt while visiting you.

WANT TO INCREASE YOUR COVERAGE FOR SPECIAL ITEMS?
If you have big ticket valuables, like fancy jewelry, musical equipment, artwork or cameras, you can get coverage for their full value. Give us a call to talk about your options.

WHAT ELSE SHOULD I KNOW?
If you ever have a claim, we need proof of what you owned. Since most people don't keep receipts, it's a good idea to take plenty of photos of all your belongings and emailing them to yourself for safe keeping.

LOOKING FOR WAYS TO SAVE MONEY?
GEICO is always looking for more ways to save you money. If you already insure your car with us, you may be receiving a Multi-Policy Discount on your auto policy! If you don't currently have an auto policy with GEICO, we want you to know we're here to help with your other insurance needs, too. And it's possible you could save even more. That's savings made simple.

Call 1.800.841.3000.

CALIFORNIA
THIS ENDORSEMENT AMENDS THE POLICY. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY.

NOTICE
Throughout this policy, the term spouse includes an
individual registered under California law as a domestic partner with the “named insured” shown in the
Declarations.

DEFINITIONS
Under item 3. “Insured”, the following is added to the
definition of “insured”:
e. With respect to “property damage” under
SECTION II, any person residing at the “insured
location” but only if that person is listed on the
lease that applies to the “insured location”.

The following definitions are added:

10. “Fungi” means:
a. Any type or form of fungus, including mold or
mildew, and any mycotoxins, spores, scents or
by-products produced or released by “fungi”.
b. Under Section II, this does not include any
“fungi” that are, are on, or are contained in, a
good or product intended for consumption.

11. “Interested Party” means the person or organization listed on the Declarations Page that has an interest
in ensuring coverage exists on the “residence
premises”.

12. “Personal Injury” means injury, other than “bodily
injury”, arising out of one or more of the following
acts:

slanders or libels a person or organization;

SECTION I - PROPERTY COVERAGES
Under COVERAGE C - Personal Property, the first and
second paragraphs are deleted and replaced by the
following:

We cover personal property owned or used by an

3. A "Residence employee" while the property:

"insured."
Our limit of liability for personal property usually located at an “insured’s” residence, other than the “residence

newly acquired principal residence is not subject to this limitation for the 30 days from the time you begin to
move the property there.

Our limit of liability for personal property owned or used by an “insured” and located in a self-storage facility is 20% of the limit of liability for Personal Property or
$5,000, whichever is greater. However, this limitation
does not apply to personal property usually located in an “insured’s” residence, other than the “residence
premises”.

trailers, furnishings, equipment and outboard
engines or motors.

declared and the “residence premises” is
located in any ZIP Code within or adjacent to
the fire perimeter, as determined by California

emergency is declared, solely because the
“residence premises” is located in an area in
which a wildfire has occurred. However, this
requirement will not apply in the following
circumstances:

When you have not paid the premium at
any time by letting you know at least 10
days before the date cancellation takes

shown in the Declarations, written notice at
least 75 days before the expiration date of this

of notice.

declared and the “residence premises” is
located in any ZIP Code within or adjacent to
the fire perimeter, as determined by California
Law, we may not nonrenew this policy for one
year, beginning from the date the state of
emergency is declared, solely because the
“residence premises” is located in an area in
which a wildfire has occurred. However, this
requirement will not apply in the following
circumstances:

If willful or negligent acts or omissions by
you, or your representatives, are
discovered that materially increase any of
the risks insured against; or
If there are physical changes in the
property insured against, beyond the
catastrophe-damaged condition of the
structures and surface landscape, which
result in the property becoming
uninsurable; or
If losses unrelated to the post disaster loss
condition of the property have occurred
that would collectively render the risk
ineligible for renewal.
