Mr Hill,
Congrats on your victorious win! I attended your birthday party a few months back at Mr Grossmans house with
my friend Robert Kinports.
I am writing you as a concerned citizen residing in your district. I recently got notification from the city that
they wish to conduct an inspection of my property that I have been a tenant at for the last 7 years. I politely
denied any such request and just wanted to express my frustration at this absolutely overbearing ordinance.
Seems to me this is a thinly veiled ordinance created by Jan Marx to deal with her frustrations over the house
she purchased next to a Cal Poly.
There are many laws tools and resources readily available to tenants at both the state and federal level with
respect to tenant rights. Charging my landlord $185 for an inspection that shouldn't take more then 5 minutes
and adding a requirement to pay the city for a business license is not the solution to dealing with tenant safety
issues.
I hope this email finds you well and wish you luck during your term.
V/r,
Gary Browne
