Like in many communities, San Leandro's commercial eviction moratorium ended on September 30, 2021, when the Governor's executive order authorizing commercial eviction moratoria expires. Some protections will remain, including a period of at least 120 days during which a tenant can pay the rent that they had not paid during the moratorium. View the End of Moratorium on Commercial Eviction Frequently Asked Questions (PDF) for more information about the end of the moratorium, including the ban on late payment fees and the extension of repayment.
