Governor Newsom extends protections for LA firestorm survivors

Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order to maintain protections for renters and homeowners affected by Los Angeles area firestorms. The order extends state price gouging restrictions for rental housing, hotels, and short-term housing, extends support for survivors sheltering in hotels and short-term housing, and prioritizes fire-survivors experiencing homelessness for state-funded housing.

The executive order extends several of Governor Newsom’s executive orders that were set to expire, helping to encourage immediate access to housing and protect tenants from potential exploitation.

 

Here's what the executive order does:

  • Extends price gouging protections on rental housing, hotels, and motel rates, including prohibitions on evictions of tenants to relist the rental at a higher rate to July 1, 2025, while retaining exemptions for large homes in zip codes with high fair market values which have not recently been on the rental market to help ensure they are available for rental during recovery efforts. The order also exempts newly constructed housing to increase housing supply by enabling pricing flexibility for these new buildings that face higher financing costs.
  • Extends the suspension of laws that would classify occupants of hotels, motels, and temporary housing as tenants after 30 days, giving people more time to find alternative housing.
  • Prioritizes fire survivors experiencing homelessness by prioritizing them on waiting lists for state-funded housing for which they otherwise qualify so they can secure housing faster, consistent with the approach taken by the federal government in response to emergencies.
  • Supports the rebuilding of two commercial corridors in Altadena to their pre-fire character to support small businesses and rebuild walkable, vibrant community spaces.
