Much has been made of pro-rent control lobby recognizing the rent control ordinance was a compromise. Many felt it should have covered more housing types & units. Let’s assume a referendum vote happens where the question of rent control goes to all the registered voters. Will the question be structure along the line of the flawed ordinance?

Thank you for the comment, Frank. Yes, one reason why the rent-control measure was a compromise was that it doesn’t cover all types of rental units something I should have mentioned in my column. If there is a referendum, I think (though really have no idea) residents would vote on the measure “as is” rather than on a revised measure or on the general concept of rent control. But if the referendum result allowed rent control to happen, I assume the measure could be strengthened at some point albeit at the risk of the litigation-inclined Montclair Property Owners Association going to court again.
