Plan C TIC Rally February 6

Plan C and the SF TIC Coalition are organizing a rally on February 6, the day tickets are being pulled in the 2008 Condo Conversion lottery. I encourage all TIC owners to attend and make some noise at City Hall. Here's an excerpt from the announcement.

Please join Plan C and the SF TIC coalition for a rally to support condominium conversion reform! On February 6th the City will hold its annual condominium conversion lottery. This year, we’re using this once-a-year opportunity to show our dissatisfaction with an outdated process that unfairly penalizes first time homeowners!

We'll meet on the City Hall steps starting at 8:15 a.m. on Wednesday, February 6. We'll have Peet's coffee for you - and petitions to reform the lottery process. Just before 9 a.m., we'll walk together to Room 400 where the lottery is held. On the way, we'll also walk to the Board of Supervisors’ offices to leave petitions asking for condo conversion reform.

We need to let City officials know how many of you are waiting patiently through a process that takes too long to complete...With only 200 "winning" units each year, the odds of winning have gotten steadily worse.

Plan C has backed condo conversion reform for a long time, but these efforts have met with failure at City Hall. Why? -- because San Francisco's TIC community has not organized to fight for fair treatment at City Hall. February 6 is an opportunity for you to have your voice heard! Join us at 8:15 on February 6 at City Hall.
