In response to question, Planning Director Schroeter advised that the proposed ordinance would not stand or fall on the points listed in Mr Stevenson's letter He noted that, for example, buildings constructed as speculative rental units such as apartments often are not well insulated with regard to noise and energy savings and renters are likely to move if dissatisfied rather than urge the City to require higher levels of insulation, while home owners of condo- miniums demand higher standards and that such considerations must be taken into account in converting apartments to condominiums. In response to question from City Attorney Schricker, Mr Schroeter commented concerning Noise and Housing Elements of the General Plan Discussion followed and Mr Schroeter, Mr Schricker and Mr Stevenson commented and replied to questions concerning the minimum number of units which may be converted to condominiums, whether or not the pro- posed 12-unit minimum is valid, and whether or not the sub�ect is covered by Attorney General Opinion No. 74-133 as claimed by Mr. Stevenson Paul Tyson, 917 Terminal Way, San Carlos, builder and developer, in- , quired concerning the application of the proposed ordinance to buildings presently in the process of being converted Assistant City Attorney Reg Mtg -�- 5/1/78 /
