Yes. The tenants of Portside Towers have formed tenant associations after having discovered that their buildings do not have the documentation required by the rent control law (JCs Chapter 260) to claim a rent control exemption. After more than 100 tenants have filed illegal rent increase petitions, the city is refusing to enforce its own law. It turns out lack of enforcement is a well-known, longstanding issue. So, Portside tenants have taken their cases to City Council meetings and the press is paying attention. Tenants from other buildings, other organized groups fighting for tenant rights, and a few politicians have joined together to fight the corruption that is perpetuating the lack of rent control enforcement in Jersey City. They’re now helping tenants in other buildings to organize. There is more to come from them, so stay tuned.
