DESCRIPTION:Call To Action: Dec.5, 7pm-Oakland Condo-Conversion Protest! \n\nNo on 
 Items 31 and 32!\n\nWhen: 7pm-December 5, Oakland City Council Meeting! 
 \nCome early to sign up as speaker!\n\nWhere: Oakland City Council 
 Chambers!  \nOakland City Hall \nBroadway and 14th St.\n{Downtown 
 Oakland)\n\nSAVE OAKLAND'S CONDO-CONVERSION PROTECTIONS! \n\nNo on Item 31 
 and Item 32!\n\nOakland's condo-conversion protections face a vote on 
 December 5, by those who want to weaken the existing laws so much that they 
 are willing to place thousands of renters at risk of becoming homeless! 
 \n\nThe realty/developers want to convert Oakland's rental housing stock 
 into market rate condominiums.  \n\nComing up on December 5 - 7pm Oakland 
 City Council meeting, the condo-conversion proponents have Item 31 and Item 
 32 coming up for a vote.\n\nEveryone against the weakening of the existing 
 condo-conversion protections, needs to speak-out\nagainst Item 31 and Item 
 32. Please come early to sign up as a speaker! \n\nPresently the swing vote 
 seems to be Councilwoman Patricia Kernighan, of District #2. 510/238-7002   
  pkernighan@oaklandnet.com \n\nAs of Friday, December 1, according to 
 Kernighans\noffice, she was still undecided.\n\nEveryone is urged to 
 contact Councilmember Kernighan, to urge her to say to against Items 31 and 
 32, on Dec. 5!\n\nIt appears that Councilmembers De la Fuente, Brooks, 
 Chang and Reid are a lost cause, and have lost their moral sense of 
 integrity.\n\nSince more than 90% of Oakland's renters cannot afford to buy 
 one of the converted-condos being proposed, the above mentioned 
 councilmembers do not care how many renters get hurt or displaced in the 
 process, while the developers make their fortunes on this outrageous 
 venture! \n\nThat leaves Councilmembers Nadel, Quan and Brunner against, 
 with Kernighan undecided.    \n\nThe proponents may need Jerry Brown if 
 theres a tie vote. Brown would support the developers.\n\nOur best chance 
 to win, would be to stop the vote somehow from taking place on December 5, 
 and delay the vote/s (1st reading Dec. 5, and second reading Dec.19) until 
 sometime in January, when Ron Dellums would have a chance to vote against 
 the weakening of the current condo-conversion protections. \n\nLandlords 
 are already trying to force tenants to sign a new contract in support of a 
 condo-conversion, in\nanticipation of a change in law. \n\nOakland tenants 
 should not sign any new contracts that would materially change their 
 existing contracts, because under Measure EE (eviction protections), the 
 tenants are not required to sign new contracts that would materially change 
 the old contract.\n\nBe There 7pm December 5!\n \nCome early to sign up as 
 a speaker against the weakening of Oakland's condo-conversion laws! 
 \n\nOakland City Hall at the 7pm-Oakland City Council Meeting! \nDowntown
