Just-cause eviction
In unincorporated Sonoma County, a landlord may end a covered tenancy only by proving one of the at-fault or no-fault grounds in the state Tenant Protection Act as modified by the county, and protection starts when the tenancy begins rather than after 12 months (§§ 4-254, 4-255; amended 2025). Code text: "No landlord shall take action to terminate any tenancy covered by this article or the Act unless the landlord is able to prove the existence of one of the at-fault or no-fault grounds set forth in the Act."
