PAST EVENTS
CANCELLED Special Workshop for Long-Term Tenants***
Tuesday, March 10th
Location: Berkeley Central Library, 2090 Kittredge Street, 3rd Floor, Community Room
This workshop is facilitated by Rent Board Housing Counselors and includes Q and A with local housing attorneys. We will provide an overview of tenant rights with an emphasis on the specific rights and responsibilities of long-term tenants. We will discuss rent regulation and eviction protections, responding to harassment, and how to ensure that you have safe and habitable housing.
***In an abundance of caution, the Rent Board has cancelled the March 10 Long-term Tenant Workshop in light of Coronavirus (COVID-19). It will be rescheduled at a later date. The Rent Board will be hosting a Long-term Tenant web seminar within the next month so that you can participate from home--stay tuned for more information! There is also another in-person Long-term Tenant Workshop scheduled for later this year.
