The 德州2021十大正规彩票app经纪人® 问题 Mobilization Program is designed to help local REALTOR® associations act on local issues that affect REALTORS® or private property owners. The program provides associations with funds or staff support to help fight for or against proposed local ordinances, 投票措施, 或者其他问题.

Here’s how three local REALTOR® associations used the 问题 Mobilization program this year.

四河2021十大正规彩票app经纪人协会® successfully conducted a public education campaign in August that urged the San Marcos City Council to reconsider potentially harmful changes to the city’s land development code. 经过多年的代码更新, an appointed task force of diverse community 成员 reviewed proposed code updates and provided the council with suggestions for making the code more inclusive.

然而, the council instead considered proposed changes that would keep San Marcos limited in its housing options and make the housing development process overly complicated, 耗时, 和昂贵的.

Thanks to REALTOR® advocacy through public education, the City Council ultimately agreed on several of the task force’s recommendations.

The Bryan-College Station Regional Association of REALTORS® has been fighting to keep housing options available in College Station. 成员 of the College Station City Council are pushing for unfair ordinances against short-term and long-term rental housing options, including severely limiting how many unrelated persons can live in a home and eliminating many short-term rental options.

BCSRAR is working with community stakeholders to ensure housing access is preserved in the region.

圣安东尼奥2021十大正规彩票app经纪人委员会 got involved when the San Antonio City Council was considering an ordinance that would have required residential landlords to take costly and 耗时 steps before giving tenants a notice to vacate for failure to pay rent. SABOR opposed the ordinance for multiple reasons, including legal concerns and the adverse impact it would have on landlords and property owners.

Along with dialogue and engagement among SABOR staff, 成员, 和市议会, SABOR launched a call for action urging REALTORS® to contact their council 成员. In only two days, 632 成员 called and emailed their council 成员. 然后, more than 100 REALTORS® attended a City Council meeting, wearing face coverings and armed with talking points. They shared emotional testimonies about the impact the ordinance would have on their businesses as “mom and pop” landlords.

These actions changed the outcome of the vote by educating the elected officials on the potential harm to the local real estate industry.
