Governor Newsom has signed an executive order allowing local jurisdictions to continue their eviction moratoriums that were set to end on June 30. Executive order N-08-21 is an extension of the timeframe for protections already established in previous orders. This executive order extension is set to expire on September 30, 2021.

During COVID, Sacramento has passed bills barring eviction for residential tenants. But this does not include commercial property, and the state has not passed any legislation as such. What the governor has done is to allow local jurisdictions to act if they so choose. Orange County does not currently have a commercial eviction ban in place. Los Angeles County’s commercial eviction ban is set to expire on September 30, 2021.
