OR Legislature Could Vote On Rent Measure Next Week

The Oregon House could vote on a rent control measure as soon as next week after it went through committee on Wednesday.  The Senate passed it last week.  The bill prohibits landlords from terminating month-to-month leases without cause after 12 months of occupancy and limits rent hikes to once a year and up to seven percent above the annual change in the consumer price index.  52nd District Representative Anna Williams plans to vote for the measure, noting the Legislature will have to monitor how the move would impact different communities and be prepared to adjust accordingly.  If approved Oregon would be the first state to enact a rent control measure.
