IMPORTANT NOTICE-EVICTIONS and RENT INCREASES: The Irvine City Council approved a resolution on March 24, 2020 to address evictions and rent increases within the City. The resolution strongly discourages landlords from evicting tenants or increasing rents during this crisis where non-payment is a result of COVID-19 and the related mitigation efforts. If your landlord has notified you of an eviction that is in conflict with the City Council resolution, please provide the contact information of your landlord and any relative documents to stakigawa@cityofirvine.org.
