Indepth Arts News: "No More Lofts Rally" 1999-08-09 until 1999-08-09 Coalition for Jobs, Arts & Housing San Francisco, CA, USA United States of America
The San Francisco Board of Supervisors is voting Monday on a
moratorium on
loft construction in SDan Francisco's industrial areas. New Live/Work Lofts
are
$400,000 condos, not workspaces for artists as originally intended by
the Artists' Live/Work Law. Lofts are pushing jobs, artists and
businesses out of the City, and they have cost the City millions of
dollars in lost fees (see the Condos in Disguise article on the SF
Examiner's front page 8/4/99). Developers will pack City Hall w/
construction workers - The Rally will demonstrate to Supervisors that voters care
about this issue. The Coalition for Jobs, Arts & Housing is
working with California Lawyers for the Arts to organize The Rally in
support of the live/work loft moratorium in San Francisco. This is a
crucial issue for the arts community.
The Rally will take place Monday, August 9, 12:00 pm.
on the steps of San Francisco City Hall.
Artists, workers, small business owners, concerned
neighbors are invited to come out and support. The SF Board of Supervisors is voting Monday on a
