On June 9, the Redwood City Council will consider accepting certification that an initiative petition to impose additional rent control and just-cause eviction limits has qualified, receive the Elections Code Section 9212 impact report, and take the action required under Elections Code Section 9215. The Council would then choose between adopting the ordinance as written or placing it before voters on November 3, 2026. The proposed ordinance would repeal the City’s existing tenant-protection chapter and adopt a new Chapter 42, titled the Fair and Affordable Housing Ordinance. The measure would establish rent stabilization, just-cause eviction protections, right-to-return and first-refusal provisions, relocation assistance, anti-harassment protections, a rent stabilization and tenant protections program, funding mechanisms, and a petition/hearing process.
