Dear Sir:
I would ask your committee to address the issue of rent control. I know that affordable housing is on the
agenda for tonight but the elderly are suffering too, we are on a fixed income and everything is going up,
groceries and utilities and everything else they just raised my rent again for the 2nd time and soon I may
be joining the homeless on the streets and I just turned 77 either I cut back on my eating or have no
where to live!
I don't know how old you all are but I am sure you would NOT want your parents on the street at 77,
I know people with kids are suffering too but what about the elderly?? We can't get a extra job to
supplement our income and we only get paid once a month!
Thank you for considering this issue.
Sincerely;
Bobbie Thomas
