SUMMARY

On April 21, 2025, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2025-002, establishing Chapter 4-45, “Rental Registry,” of the San Leandro Municipal Code. The ordinance requires residential rental property owners to register units annually no later than January 31, beginning on January 31, 2026, with the registration program supported through associated fees. The Rental Registry Ordinance will help track rental housing data in San Leandro over time to enable the current and future City Councils to make more informed decisions on tenant protections.

On October 6, 2025, the City Council considered a first reading of Ordinance No. 2025-013, amending San Leandro Municipal Code Chapter 4-45 to Revise the Rental Registration Filing Deadline from January 31 to July 31 and approved it by a unanimous vote of 7-0. A second reading is required to adopt ordinance 2025-013, which would become effective thirty (30) days later.

 RECOMMENDATIONS

Staff recommend that the City Council hold a second reading and adopt Ordinance No. 2025-013.
