This was a Fair Housing Workshop conducted by the City of Santa Maria, California, in collaboration with the Legal Aid Foundation on May 28, 2026. The workshop focused on educating attendees about fair housing laws, tenant rights, and landlord responsibilities under both federal and California law. Key topics included prohibited discrimination based on protected classes, reasonable accommodations for disabilities including emotional support and service animals, and recent legal updates such as habitability standards and eviction protections. While the session provided valuable legal information and resources for tenants and landlords, it did not include any procurement-related discussions such as contract awards, vendor selections, or budget allocations.
