The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors will soon launch an outreach campaign that will be aimed at preparing renters and landlords for the end of the COVID-19 pandemic eviction moratorium.
Supervisors Sheila Kuehl and Hilda Solis opposed the motion, calling such an outreach campaign premature and suggesting the board may consider extending some renter protections.
Board Chair Holly Mitchell countered that the board voted in January to end the renter protections at the end of the year, and she's yet to see any motions or proposals that would extend them beyond Dec. 31. She said Barger's motion was only designed to ensure that people are aware the protections are set to expire.
Kuehl conceded that the eviction protection for non-payment of rent must end, but said she is interested in possibly extending some other protections, such as ensuring that people can only be evicted for just cause and preventing landlords from imposing dramatic rent increases.
