TOPA proposal in Berkeley, CA

[Lois S.]

Some info from local LL assn. - Heads up!

The Berkeley City Council plans to introduce a scheme designed to seize private property.  If passed in Berkeley, TOPA will likely be up next in Oakland!
The "Tenant Opportunity to Purchase Act (TOPA)" is an eminent domain in disguise. 

Stop the Berkeley City Council from stealing your property rights, lowering home values, and hurting Berkeley's future.

The first reading of TOPA is on the agenda of the Berkeley City Council Land Use, Housing, and Economic Development Committee's Special Meeting on Monday, April 26, 10:30 a.m. PT.
