Land Use Condo Conversion

David F.
  • San Diego, CA
Posted

I own 10 townhome-style apartments on 1 parcel.  They are leased out.

It is zoned R-2 which allows for Multifamily which is defined broadly in the Definitions sections of the General Plan as "Dwelling, Multi-Family - A building containing three (3) or more dwelling units. The term includes cooperative apartments, condominiums, and the like."  I've read through the General Plan and there is nothing else that broadens or limits this description that I can find.

Generally speaking, does this mean that I should have ministerial approval to perform a condo conversion of these already-built-out units in the same sense that I would have ministerial approval to submit plans for a new construction condos if the land were still vacant?  

I just want to get some opinions on this subject before I delve in.  Thanks in advance.
