California state measure:
Proposition 13: Limits on Property Tax Assessment after Seismic
Retrofitting of Existing Buildings.
YES
Ensures that construction required to seismically retrofit buildings does not trigger reassessment of property tax value. Fiscal Impact: minor reduction in local property tax revenues related to the assessment of earthquake upgrades.
San Francisco measures
Measure F: Renters Economic Relief
NO, NO, NO
Places severe limitations on what a rental property owner can do with regard to rent increases and passthroughs of taxes and costs for upgrades and repairs. Limits rent increases based on tenant income. The tenant has the right of appeal while the property owner is required to provide a wealth of documentation to get approval. The ordinance is very anti-private property, anti-property owner, and anti-rental units. It's telling that the San Francisco Rent Board opposes Prop. F.
