The California Apartment Association (CAA) is urging Santa Ana, California, residents to revoke a recently approved rent control ordinance before it goes into effect on Nov. 19.

On Oct. 19, the city became the first in Orange County to approve a rent control ordinance at a city council meeting with a 4–3 vote. The law would prevent landlords from raising rent by more than 3 percent annually.
