MINOR
This bill amends the requirements for landlords to provide information about rent increase exemptions to tenants. It reduces the frequency of required notices from twice a year to once a year and expands the scope by requiring this information to be included on rent bills, including those sent electronically.
Scope change
The bill's scope was expanded to include rent bills (including electronic communications) as a medium for delivering required informational material, in addition to new and renewal leases.
REQUIREMENT
The frequency of required informational notices was reduced from at least twice annually to at least once annually.
Landlords must now include the required exemption information on all rent bills, including those delivered via electronic communication.
The rule stating that information provided in a lease counts toward the annual notice requirement was removed, as the new frequency is a single annual notice.
