§98.0701 Purpose and Intent
The purpose and intent of this Division is to promote stability in the San Diego rental housing market and limit adverse impacts on displaced tenants forced to find replacement housing in the expensive and limited San Diego housing market. This Division protects the rights of tenants by requiring just cause for termination of a tenancy consistent with California Civil Code section 1946.2, limiting the grounds for termination of a tenancy, requiring greater tenant relocation assistance in specified circumstances, and providing additional tenant protections. The rights conferred by this Division are in addition to any existing rights provided to tenants by state or federal law.
