A countywide eviction moratorium is also extended until March 31, 2023.

The Los Angeles City Council recently passed a package of ordinances aimed at providing residential tenants in Los Angeles (the City) with permanent protections against eviction and burdensome rent increases (the Ordinances). The Ordinances replace and amend temporary protections in the Los Angeles Municipal Code (LAMC) that were enacted in 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and were set to expire on January 31, 2023. The Ordinances also address the California Tenant Protection Act of 2019 (Assembly Bill 1482), which prohibits evictions without “just cause,” and permits municipalities to adopt local ordinances with greater tenant protections.
