When the Alameda Superior Court ruled that the county’s Covid-19 eviction moratorium did not apply in a housing dispute between a tenant and the city of Alameda, even the judge overseeing the case didn’t expect it to have larger ramifications.
Alameda contends the ruling has now set a precedent for whether counties can regulate incorporated cities during times of emergency. If its interpretation is correct — which has yet to be tested by further lawsuits — cities in Alameda County would have broad power to ignore ordinances set by the county – from mask mandates and curfews to eviction moratoriums.
Does the court’s ruling signify a massive shift in the balance of power between counties and cities around the state?
