According to a Culver City CA press release, the City has introduced an ordinance to codify a tenant representation pilot project for tenants at 80% or below of area median income (the City already contracts with Bet Tzedek, a legal services provider, to provide eviction defense). According to the press release, “If the ordinance is adopted by the City Council at the April 14th City Council meeting, the Tenant Right to Counsel Program would take effect in May and run for one year. During that year, staff would study the effectiveness of the Program and will report back to the City Council if the costs exceed the amount already allocated to the contract with Bet Tzedek.”
