Rent Control Preemption Bill Passes Marking Major Legislative Victory

On the evening of Wednesday, June 1 the Ohio General Assembly passed a state wide rent control preemption.  The bill has been sent to the Governor for signature.
 
HB 430 was amended on May 31 in the Ohio Senate and was approved on June 1 by the Senate.  HB 430 was then sent back to the Ohio House where the House concurred with the Senate version.
 
Don Brunner, President, National Apartment Association (NAA) and Executive Officer of the Columbus Apartment Association (CAA) gave compelling testimony. CAA retained the firm of Calfee Halter to manage the legislative effort on behalf of the CAA.
 
Calfee Halter and the Ohio Association of Realtors worked tirelessly to put together a broad coalition of real estate and business interests and were able to make the rent control preemption happen in only a few weeks. Passage of the bill means no local government or local ballot initiative that mandates rent control can be passed.
​
This is a significant victory.
