Cal. Civ. Code § 380.311
Tenant Bill of Rights
Operative Text
Each LAA must provide each Landlord that is to receive Rental Assistance payments with a Tenant Bill of Rights, and shall require each Landlord to provide each Tenant with the Tenant Bill of Rights.� Each Developer must provide all Tenants in its Project with a Tenant Bill of Rights.
Under 47 Ill. Admin. Code pt. 380 § 380.311, Local Administering Agencies (LAAs) are required to supply landlords who receive rental assistance payments with a Tenant Bill of Rights document, and those landlords must in turn deliver that document to their tenants. Separately, developers involved in a project must provide all tenants in that project with the same Tenant Bill of Rights. The rule creates a chain of distribution ensuring that tenants in rental-assistance and development contexts receive this informational document.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 380.311, landlords who receive rental assistance payments through an LAA are obligated to pass the Tenant Bill of Rights along to each of their tenants — receiving the document from the LAA is only the first step. Compliant operators typically document when and how the Tenant Bill of Rights was delivered to each tenant, keeping records that demonstrate fulfillment of this distribution requirement. Developers overseeing a project covered by this provision similarly ensure that every tenant in the project receives the document.

Section 380.311 establishes that tenants in rental-assistance programs or covered development projects have a right to receive a Tenant Bill of Rights from their landlord or developer. If a tenant has not received this document, they may raise the issue with the Local Administering Agency overseeing the rental assistance program, as the LAA bears responsibility for ensuring landlord compliance. Tenants may also consult a local tenant-rights organization to understand what the Tenant Bill of Rights contains and what options exist if it was never provided.
