Rent control rules in Lehi, UT — also known as rent stabilization or rent cap ordinances — limit annual rent increases and protect tenants from displacement.
Utah law preempts local rent control under Utah Code §10-8-85.4 and §17-50-335, which bar cities and counties from capping private rental rates. Utah County, Provo, and Orem therefore have no rent control, and landlords may raise rent to market rate with proper notice under Utah Code §78B-6-802.
The Utah State Legislature expressly prohibits municipal and county rent control. Utah Code §10-8-85.4 bars cities from enacting rent control on private residential property, and §17-50-335 applies the same prohibition to counties. Utah County, Provo, and Orem therefore have no rent caps, rent stabilization, or vacancy control. Landlords may increase rent by any amount between fixed-term leases or, for month-to-month tenancies, with 15 days written notice before the end of a rental period under Utah Code §78B-6-802. Tenant protections come from the Utah Fit Premises Act (§57-22) for habitability, the security deposit statute §57-17, and the federal Fair Housing Act. Retaliatory rent increases after a good-faith habitability complaint are prohibited under §57-22-5. Rent increases still cannot be discriminatory under FHA protected classes or Utah's state fair housing law.
Improper notice of increase: tenant may treat the old rate as continuing until proper 15-day notice issues. Retaliatory increase after habitability complaint: tenant damages and attorney fees under §57-22-5. Discriminatory increase: HUD complaint and civil penalties.
