The "modest, reasonable set of reforms" that this group proposes is anything but modest or reasonable.
For instance, a rental owner could be forced to provide a unit rent-free for as much as nine consecutive months under some circumstances. That's three quarters of a year. How many businesses could survive if their income were reduced by 75%?
This problem is in the process of fixing itself, as rents are leveling off in many areas. So why are these "modest, reasonable" proposals being put forward now? Perhaps so the sponsors can claim credit.
I urge everyone not to sign the petition for this proposal. And if it gets to the ballot, to vote NO.
