The purpose of the Rent Review Board is to evaluate the reasonableness of proposed rent increases at the request of either a landlord or tenant. Requests for a Rent Review Board hearing may be made if a proposed rent increase is over 5%, and if no agreement was made during consultation and/or mediation.

Hearings are publicly noticed and open to the public. For more information, visit the City's Rent Review Board.
