The Small Property Owners of San Francisco (SPOSF) is urging all TIC owners to contact their supervisors to ask for their support for Supervisor Dufty’s Condo Ordinance.

Now is the time to let our supervisors know you support home ownership. Last week, the Board tabled a measure sponsored by Bevan Dufty that would give added weight to those stuck in the condo conversion lottery the longest. It only affects properties that are occupied by their owners. Not a single renter is displaced. Sup. Dufty aims to improve the odds in the conversion lottery for those who have been stuck there the longest. There is no public benefit served by turning the lottery system into a virtual status prison for TIC owners.

Please write, call or email all the SF Supervisors regarding Supervisor Dufty’s ordinance. It is scheduled for a vote on Tuesday, the 22nd. This simple amendment to the existing ordinance would grant TIC owners an increased likelihood of conversion the longer they have been waiting. This amendment would affect the system of owner-occupied condo lottery applicants; no evictions will result. Please urge the San Francisco Board of Supervisors to pass this important, worthwhile ordinance.

SPOSF supports home ownership. SPOSF believes it is a positive thing for the city, for its prospective homeowners and even for tenants who have the dream to someday own their home in San Francisco.

A full list of the supervisors and their contact information can be found at SFGOV.org.

Did you hear that, Ted Gullickson? Not a single renter is displaced and not a single eviction will result from the passage of this ordinance. Now go find something worthwhile to do with your time and energy!
