2017 Our Day on the Hill - State Capitol Bldg - Wednesday!

with... Multiple Speaker(s)

THE Day for Landlords across the state to unite with each other, our lobbyists, and the Iowa Association of Realtors. This is OUR DAY to make a grand showing for support of our Residential Rental Property Industry in Iowa!

Annual Landlord and Property Managers Day on the Hill – February 1, 2017 

Phase 1 begins: 
Room 304 Opens for meet & greet at 8:00am. Out by 11:00.    

Rental property owners, managers and stakeholders - heads up!  This is our time to encourage legislators to support our issues.  On this one day each year, our presence must be felt!!!  

Phase 2 begins - 11:00:     
Our IARPRO-PAC fund contributions help reduce the amount of time legislators have to spend raising campaign funds, yet they must hear from their constituents to know which bills our industry needs.  

Time to go meet with legislators. 
 

A few of the below bills currently before the General Assembly which may be of interest to our stakeholders. 

 SSB 1009   Occupancy Bill - Not yet voted out of committee (companion bill to HSB 3)
 HSB 3   Occupancy Bill - Voted/Passed Judiciary Committee 14-5, Jan 25 
 SF 42   Jurisdictional changes to Small Claims Court Cases.   
 SF 47   Voter registration and ID requirements.  
 SF 82   Pertains to State Inheritance Tax Rate deductions, phasing out inheritance tax over a 10-year period. 
 SF 148    Limiting Developer fees to 10% of total project value for federal low-income housing tax credit housing. 
 SF 152   Property Tax Adjustments for people 65, or older, 
 SF 153   Exemption from State Individual Income Tax for capital gains from sale of equity investment subject to Iowa Capital Gains Tax.  
    And more ...!!!

We’ll meet with legislators so it’s best to let them know, in advance, that you’ll be there.  Ask them for either a specific appointment time, or a general range that would work best to meet with them.

If you can break free for a full day that would be great, but we hope every member will come for several hours.  Our voices need to be heard and appreciated at the State Capitol!
 
  
We will be providing an information kit that includes upcoming legislation, our position on it, and how to ask your representatives to work for you.  We expect to send this to you by email, and we'll have paper copies that day.

    Overall time table:
8:00 Informal start time
10:00 Special Session with Legislators
11:00 Promptly adjourn and clear Room 304
Meetings to continue throughout the day as you have them scheduled.
Happy Hour --Quentin's or IMTA? -- IaREIA - Iowa Landlord Assn will sponsor the first round for event attendees!   

The dress code for the Capitol Building is men wear a coat and tie, and women wear "appropriate business attire".

To get to Room 304 of the Capitol Building:
(from lower level, go to the rotunda.   Walk past the cafeteria all the way to the end of the hall.  Take a right to the single elevator.  Take it to the third floor.  The room is on the west (downtown DSM) side of the building).

 NOTE: Please track your time at the event, then self-report on how many hours of PHP credit you feel you have earned.  We will record attendance at various points in the day, but we want to make sure we award the proper number of PHP hours.   Maximum of 3 today.
