We have recently gone through a similar situation; however they just called instead the formalities of a letter.
I politely told them that it was not my job to do theirs and that I was not going to release any information above and beyond what was already made public via our website. I have not had any further phone calls or letters of the such.

Hello everyone, Yesterday, we received a letter from the City of San Francisco demanding that we release the names of all our San Francisco members to "insure that all commercial tenants in the facility are registered with the Office of the Treasurer and Tax Collector". 1. Have you received this letter from SF or a similar letter from your city government? 2. How have you handled it? 3. If you haven't, what's your instinct on this? Ours tells us that our clients are not commercial tenants, but members of a private club and thus we're under no obligation to disclose any information about them in this KGB-like shakedown. It'd be great to hear from the group. Thanks! Sasha Vasilyuk Sandbox Suites -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
