of rental units not covered by the RSO: those built after 1978 but

       In January 2023, the City adopted a Just Cause For
Eviction Ordinance (Ordinance No. 187737) extending just cause
eviction protections to rental housing units not subject to the
RSO. In adopting the Just Cause Ordinance, the City found it
was more protective than the TPA, “by further limiting the
reasons for termination of a residential tenancy, providing for
higher relocation assistance amounts, and providing additional
tenant protections that are not prohibited by any other provision
of law.” Consistent with the RSO, the Just Cause Ordinance
permits a landlord to commence the eviction process where a
“tenant has defaulted in the payment of rent.”
