Bay East Goes to Washington D.C.: With the federal government deeply involved in trying to jump-start the real estate market, the timing could not have been better to take our concerns to Washington D.C. A team of Bay East REALTORS® including President Pat Huffman, President-Elect Pam Winterbauer and treasurer Otto Catrina joined federal political coordinators Dorothy Jackson and Kevin Brown as REALTORS® from across the country descended on the nation's capitol as part of NAR's mid-year meeting.
Our visit to Capitol Hill was welcomed by elected officials and their staff looking for ideas to help housing and the economy. The Bay East team was ready to provide the REALTOR® perspective. On Wednesday, May 13, they met with staff members from Congress members Barbara Lee and Pete Stark. On Thursday, they met personally with Congressman Jerry McNerney. Our message focused on federal policies that impact home purchase financing; energy efficiency; commercial lending and health care reform.
All of the elected officals and staff we met with were receptive to our concerns and issues. NAR's lobbying team in Washigton D.C. welcomed our participation in their daily activies and encouraged REALTORS at the local level to help make sure Congress is aware that we're paying attention.

The Alameda County Planning Department will hold a town hall-style meeting on Wednesday, April 22, to gather community input on the South Livermore Specific Plan. The event will be held from 6-8 p.m. at the Robert Livermore Community Center at 4444 East Ave. in Livermore. The topic for the town hall will be the definition of a "winery."
REALTOR® Impact: The South Livermore Specific Plan establishes land use regulations for parcels in the unincorporated areas south of Tesla Road. Changing these regulations and permitted uses for land in this area could directly impact both private property rights and property values.
Next Steps: If you or your clients own property in South Livermore, please attend town hall on April 22. For additional information, please contact Jana Beatty Weldon, senior planner for Alameda County, at jana.beatty@acgov.org or (510) 670-5400.

The City of Hayward wants to do something about blighted vacant residential properties. Last month a group of Bay East REALTORS® and Bay East staff met with City officials to educate them about the realities of dealing with vacant foreclosed properties. We suggested several alternatives, however the City seems intent on developing an ordinance that will ultimately do little to address the problems associated with vacant foreclosed properties.
Earlier this week, City staff released a draft version of a vacant property ordnance. This ordinance could require owners to register their property with the City of Hayward upon receiving a notice of default. Once registered these properties could be subject to inspection and a $1,000 per day fee if the property is not maintained.
Bay East is seeking REALTOR® input on this new ordinance. Please take a moment to review the ordinance by clicking here.
