Division 2 — COMMERCIAL AND INDUSTRIAL CONDOMINIUMS AND CONVERSIONS

All commercial and industrial condominium and cooperative or condominium and cooperative conversion projects require a conditional use permit and must comply with all provisions of the subdivision regulations of the city and the Subdivision Map Act.

(Ord. 1169, passed 2-5-07)

All commercial and industrial condominiums and cooperatives, whether being constructed or converted, must comply with the standards set forth below unless, in the opinion of the Planning Commission or City Council, the strict adherence to these standards is unreasonable or impossible and the project should still be approved for other reasons based upon substantial evidence.

(A) Unit Separation Walls. All unit separation walls must be of one-hour fire-resistive construction as a minimum.

(B) Utility Metering. All units must be separately metered for all public utilities unless findings can be made by the Planning Commission or the City Council that utility usage will be nearly uniform for all units within the project.

(C) Meter Rooms. Any meter rooms must have an outside access point, which is available to all units without the necessity of entering another unit.

(D) Restroom Facilities. Each unit must have individual restroom facilities. If, in the opinion of the Planning Commission or City Council, such facilities cannot be provided, community restroom facilities may be provided if those facilities are available to each unit without the necessity of entering another unit.

(Ord. 1169, passed 2-5-07)

The project must meet all of the development standards required of properties within the zone in which the project is located as well as any other conditions which may be imposed as a part of the conditional use permit or subdivision approval.
