Bill Summary

AN ACT REPEALING THE PROHIBITION ON POLITICAL SUBDIVISIONS AND HOME RULE MUNICIPALITIES FROM ENACTING RENT CONTROL FOR PRIVATELY OWNED REAL PROPERTY.

AI Summary

This bill repeals a state law that previously prohibited local governments, including political subdivisions and home rule municipalities, from enacting rent control measures for privately owned rental properties. Rent control refers to laws that limit how much landlords can increase rent. By repealing this prohibition, the bill allows these local governments to consider and implement their own rent control policies if they choose to do so.
