I tried to have a rational conversation with the city, but they gave me a song and dance about how the meter is read a month later, then the water stays on another 60 days before shut off, and how dare we suggest they lose their water sooner, and no way will they contact the landlord when accounts stay in arrears.

How many letters do you typically send and what is your response and conversion rates?

I read up that the conversion to one's garage does not need permit as long as it's internal, and no expansion.

I find out boatloads of information quickly from these real time conversations and most of the bad apples don't even call because we are up front about our rental criteria.

No specific questions just yet, just wanted to get into the conversation.

The conversation veered way off of the original posters question. [ which I will continue with]Here is my story [and I can provide documentation for all I say] As a kid I had no idea why I could not fit in, why I could not speak for nearly 8 years, why people hurt me, rape me and tell me no one would believe me [ no one I told did] but I grew up.  

We had this conversation a couple of months ago after the Napa Valley Earthquake.
