Following is an excerpt from the City website:
"On May 21, 2019, the City Council adopted the Just Cause for Eviction and Prohibition on Harassment of Tenants Ordinance, El Cerrito Municipal Code Chapter 10.300 (Ordinance No. 2019-04), which was to become effective June 20, 2019. As passed, the ordinance would limit the bases for termination of residential tenancies. It would only apply to multi-family properties with five or more units that received a Certificate of Occupancy issued before January 1, 2015."
"However, on June 10, 2019, a referendum petition was filed with the City Clerk related to the Ordinance. This process, allowed by California Elections Code, suspends implementation of the ordinance and may require the City Council to either repeal the ordinance or call an election to allow voters to decide. Depending upon the timing of the Contra Costa County Elections Office whether the petition has a sufficient number of valid voter signatures, Council will meet in July or August to take any further action that might be required."
