Bill Text
What changed in the latest version
11 added · 14 removedPlain-language change summary
The updated version of Bill SB 69 clarifies that rental agreements can include terms allowing tenants to operate child care services in their apartments, as long as those services comply with state and local regulations. This change is important because it provides more flexibility for tenants who want to start child care businesses from home, potentially helping families in their community who need reliable child care options. By making this explicit in rental agreements, landlords and tenants have a clearer understanding of what is permissible.
