Motion asking the Legislative Analyst to analyze the HOPE initiative measure that is on file with the Department of Elections and for which signatures are currently being collected in order to qualify it for the November 2002 ballot. In particular, analyze how the process for conversion of rental units to ownership units will take place under this initiative ordinance, and compare this to the process that currently is in place for conversions under Article 9 conversion process. Please identify the function and purpose of the Article 9 section in question. In addition, please assess how this legislation changes timelines for processing applications for conversions, what affect such changes in timelines may have on the ability of City agencies in fulfilling their responsibilities under the initiative ordinance. Also please analyze how efficiently and effectively this initiative ordinance would be in the administration of responsibilities and duties that it imposes on City departments. Finally, please compare the provisions of the HOPE initiative with those of the related but different HOPE ordinance, File #020489, sponsored by Supervisor Hall at the Board of Supervisors.
