Immediate Withdrawal: I respectfully request that you promptly withdraw the improper rent increase and restore the rent to its previous amount, which was in compliance with the Rent Control Ordinance. 2. Rent Adjustment: Following the withdrawal, I kindly ask that you recalculate the new rent increase within the legal confines as determined by the San Diego Rent Control Ordinance. Please provide me with written notice of the revised amount, including the effective date of the adjusted rent. 3.

Should you fail to address this matter promptly, I may be forced to seek legal assistance to protect my rights as a tenant under the San Diego Rent Control Ordinance. However, I am confident that we can reach an amicable resolution without resorting to such measures.
