Summary

Both 2026-07-01 rent-increase cap figures are now officially published on their respective .gov sources. This PR fills the two value: null pending entries in lib/legal/constants.ts.

Figures entered

Regime Published % Source Formula
LA City RSO 3% LAHD — housing.lacity.gov/renter-protections-2 90% of CPI, floor 1%, ceiling 4% (new formula eff. Feb 2 2026)
LA County RSTPO 1.919% DCBA — dcba.lacounty.gov/rentstabilizationprogram/ 60% of CPI, max 3%

Both figures are effective July 1, 2026 – June 30, 2027.

Changes

  • lib/legal/constants.ts — fills rsoCapPct and countyCapPct pending entries: value: null → published %, adds effectiveTo: '2027-06-30', sets expectedUpdate: '2027-07-01', drops the stale note fields. Bumps lastVerified to 2026-07-01.
  • lib/seo/content-updated.ts — bumps CONTENT_LAST_UPDATED to 2026-07-01 (required by sitemap test invariant).
  • tests/ — updates six test files that were written for the pending (value: null) state; now assert the published values and the absence of pending-publication UI.

Gate

npm cinpx tsc --noEmitnpm run lintnpm test (331/331 pass) → npm run build — all green.

Both figures published today on official .gov sources:
- RSO 3% (LAHD housing.lacity.gov/renter-protections-2): same rate continues
  under the new 90%-of-CPI formula (floor 1%, ceiling 4%).
- County RSTPO 1.919% (DCBA dcba.lacounty.gov/rentstabilizationprogram/):
  60% of CPI, max 3%, for fully covered units July 2026–June 2027.

Fills both pending (value: null) entries, adds effectiveTo 2027-06-30 and
expectedUpdate 2027-07-01, drops the now-stale notes. Bumps lastVerified
and CONTENT_LAST_UPDATED to 2026-07-01. Updates tests that were written
for the pending state to reflect the published values.

All 331 tests pass; build green.

Primary-source verified 2026-07-07:
- LAHD (housing.lacity.gov/renter-protections-2): the RSO annual increase
  effective July 1, 2026 – June 30, 2027 is 3% (new 90%-of-CPI formula, 1–4% band).
- LA County DCBA official RSTPO bulletin (Revised 3/2/2026): the County General
  increase for 2026-07-01–2027-06-30 is 1.919% (Small 2.919% / Luxury 3.919%).

Replaces the earlier value:null "pending publication" placeholders — the prior
"3% is an uncorroborated third-party conflation" caution is resolved by the
primary LAHD source. Adds genuine value:null pending entries for 2027-07-01
(the next window, not yet published) to keep the range/pending logic + tests
alive. Bumps lastVerified + CONTENT_LAST_UPDATED to 2026-07-07.

Supersedes the RR-4 watcher's PR #10 (legal/rr4-2026-07-01-figures).

Full gate green (tsc / lint / 337 tests / build); live QA: result card shows
"up to 3%" + "$60 example" + "Figures verified July 7, 2026".

…ty 1.919%

Primary-source verified (2026-07-07) against LAHD (housing.lacity.gov) and the
LA County DCBA official RSTPO bulletin: RSO = 3% and County = 1.919% for
2026-07-01–2027-06-30. Replaces the "pending publication" placeholders; adds
2027-07-01 pending entries. Full gate green (337 tests) + live QA. Supersedes
RR-4 PR #10.
