At the Perth Amboy City Council meeting on Wednesday October 12, 2022 the City Council unanimously voted to reform the local rent control law to reduce rent increases from 5% at the end of a lease, to 3% if the rent includes a charge for water and 2 1/2% if the rent does not cover water.  The reform applies to rental properties of more than 4 units.  The articles appeared in Perth Amboy Now and the Star Ledger.
