Statewide rent control:

San Francisco forcing rental of vacant property (also being pushed in Oakland and perhaps other California socialist communes):
Going to do it in L.A. too:
As far as I’m concerned it is unconstitutional. Under 5th and 14th amendment inverse condemnation law, the government cannot force you to share your property with others.
And by analogy, the Third Amendment prohibits the government from forcing property owners to quarter soldiers.
Thanks for those links and for your time in gathering and posting. Very informative. If I have a vacant house, it is my right to determine how that house is used. As long as I keep up the property and landscaping and pay the property taxes when due, the gvt has no right to control my decisions.
I agree with you. This is clearly an invasion of property owner rights. And it’s another reason I’m glad I don’t live in CA.
