Vallejo, CA Rental Property Rules: Rent Increase Notice (2026)

64, Vallejo's Mobile Home Parks Rent Control ordinance, ties every cost-of-living rent increase to a single date the park owner sets for the whole property. 040 requires the park owner to establish an anniversary date for COLA increases, and every rent increase for every space in that park must be noticed to take effect on that same date each year an increase is desired. 30 requires, disclose the amount of the proposed increase, and say whether the owner believes the increase qualifies for the chapter's no-hearing safe harbor, along with the reasons for that opinion.

The same day the tenant notice goes out, the park owner must send a copy to the city's housing manager, who acts as the city manager's designee under the chapter. The math behind the notice also has to be shown: the calculations for how the increase was determined must be posted somewhere in the park office where tenants can easily see them. 040 bars a second round of increases anywhere in that park for another twelve months, and subsection A independently caps the increase to once every twelve months under the chapter's cost-of-living formula.

A landlord who is behind on complying with the chapter, or with city health and building codes, loses the right to raise rent under this section at all until the violation is fixed.
