PUBLIC HEARING -1731 ADRIAN ROAD APPEAL OF CONDOMINIUM PERMIT FOR OFFICE CONDOS AT - RESOLUTION 113-87 APPROVING SAME City Planner reviewed her memo of October l3 in which she recomnended council hold a public hearing and take action. George Avanessian, architect, representing Gerald Cauchi and Robert Kent, is requesting a condominium permit for a warehouse/office building in the M-l zone. The construction had already begun when application was made for a condominiurn permlt but staff determined that enough construction remains to be completed that it could be considered new construction. The applicant proposes to divide the structure into 14 owner occupied unj.ts. The parking provided al1ows for each unit to contain warehouse area, a storage mezzanine and an office area. No more than 14 percent of Ehe entire structure would be office to match t.he parklng provided; however, the amount of office will vary by unit. No more than 20 percent of any unit will be in office, as required by city code. The proposal meets the six criteria for condominium required by code, The reason for the appeal was a condition on the condominium permit and the tentative map that the building be built lo H-1 uniform building and fire code standards. The reason for i{-1 requirements uas to proEect the future okrners so that all permitted uses in the M-l zone could do business from any one of these units. Since the Planning Commission action of Septenber 28 and the appeal, the applicant has met wiEh staff and together they have determined that if the CC&Rts clearly indlcate the use limitation on the individual units and these are disclosed as part of negotiating any sale in the future; the sEructural requirements of H-1 need not be net.
