CODE SECTION 65858 AS AN EMERGENCY MEASURE
PROHIBITING CONVERSIONS OF APARTMENT HOUSES
AND DUPLEXES TO STOCK COOPERATIVES
WHEREAS, it has been brought to the attention of the City Council that there
is a renewed and growing interest in the conversion of existing duplexes and
apartment house buildings to condominium ownership; and,
WHEREAS, the"condominium" concept, as it has evolved, is clearly applicable
to larger projects where space relationships, useable open areas, and mainte-
nance can be effectively arranged and managed, the design of such projects
being distinctly unique and capable of assuring special design amenities that
are not found in small apartments and duplexes; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council has adopted an interim ordinance prohibiting conver-
sions of apartment houses and duplexes to condominium or community apartment
form of ownership; and,
WHEREAS, stock cooperative form of ownership is found to be substantially
similar to condominium or community apartment form of ownership; and,
WHEREAS, the City Council finds it desirable and necessary to temporarily
halt any further conversions to condominiums pending study and adoption of
policy guidelines and appropriate general and/or specific plans; and,
WHEREAS, The City Council intends to adopt general and/or specific plans
governing subject conversions throughout the City as soon as is convenient,
and directs the Planning Commission of this City to commence studies and
procedures necessary for the adoption of such plans;
NOW THEREFORE BE IT ORDANIED that conversion of any existing apartment house
or duplex located in the City of National City to stock cooperative form of
ownership is prohibited;
BE IT FURTHER ORDAINED that this ordinance is adopted as an interim ordinance
as an emergency measure for the reasons set forth above, and for a period of
four months from the date of adoption (unless extended pursuant to Government
Code Section 65858).
