DESCRIPTION:SF Tenants to Testify against CitiApartments at Board of Supervisors’ 
 Land Use Committee \n\nOn Monday, May 12, 2008 at 1 PM, tenants from across 
 San Francisco will testify at the Board of Supervisors Land Use Committee 
 against CitiApartments, one of the biggest landlords in the San Francisco.  
 CitiApartments owns more than 200 residential buildings in San Francisco 
 with more than 10,000 tenants.  CitiApartments is notorious for buying 
 large amounts of rent controlled buildings, and pushing tenants out in 
 order to increase rents to market rate.  CitiApartments has a history of 
 strong arming tenants to vacate, fabricating evictions, unlawfully entering 
 tenants’ apartments, making tenants uncomfortable with unnecessary 
 repairs, carrying out illegal conversions, and forcibly buying tenants 
 out.\n\nFor the last three years CitiSTOP, a group of CitiApartment tenants 
 and housing organizations, have demanded that CitiApartments be a 
 responsible landlord. Currently, the City Attorney’s Office has a pending 
 lawsuit against CitiApartments because of their bad business tactics and 
 treatment of tenants that is scheduled to go to court in 
 2009.\n\nSupervisor Daly is sponsoring the hearing for CitiApartment 
 tenants and their allies to voice their concerns, and tell their personal 
 stories of how CitiApartments has affected them.  It is time to let elected 
 officials, the media, and CitiApartment know that tenants demand to be 
 treated with respect, and will not be pushed out of San Francisco by large 
 landlords like CitiApartments.       \n\nThis hearing was requested by: 
 Supervisor Chris Daly, CitiSTOP, The Queer Youth Organizing Project of 
 Pride at Work, St. Peter’s Housing Committee, and the SF Tenant’s Union
