California Civil Code section 1946.2 requires Long Beach landlords of covered units to give written notice of just-cause eviction protections and the statewide rent cap, using the state-prescribed language at lease signing or by August 1 each year.
AB 1482 codified at Civil Code section 1946.2 caps annual rent increases at five percent plus regional CPI, capped at ten percent total, and requires just cause for terminations after twelve months of tenancy. Landlords must provide tenants with the statutory disclosure either as a lease addendum at signing or as a stand-alone notice. The notice quotes the statute verbatim. Long Beach's local just-cause ordinance LBMC 8.97 imposes additional duties, but the AB 1482 disclosure remains the floor for any non-exempt unit, with single-family rentals only exempt if the owner provides the prescribed exemption notice.
Failure to deliver the AB 1482 disclosure can prevent landlords from enforcing exemptions, leaving the unit subject to default state rent cap and just-cause rules, and may support tenant defenses in eviction.
