Bill Summary
AN ACT IN THE COUNCIL OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA To amend, on an emergency basis, the Rental Housing Act of 1985 to clarify that rental units participating in the Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program are exempt from the rent stabilization program.
AI Summary
This bill clarifies an exemption from rent stabilization for rental units participating in the Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) Program in the District of Columbia. Specifically, the bill amends Section 205(a)(1) of the Rental Housing Act of 1985 to explicitly state that any rental unit receiving tax credits through the LIHTC Program is exempt from rent stabilization requirements. The bill is an emergency act, which means it will take effect immediately upon mayoral approval and remain in effect for up to 90 days. The purpose appears to be providing clear legal language that rental properties receiving low-income housing tax credits are not subject to the city's standard rent control regulations, which could potentially provide more flexibility for housing providers participating in this affordable housing program.
