Since the date of the original approval, however, the complex has changed ownership. The new owners, Cal State Associates, Inc. have at this point requested an extension for the Use Permit as well as the Tentative Tract Map. Discussion In a letter from Mr. Eugene E. Vollucci, President of Cal State Associates LLLXXV, three major reasons were given supporting the request for an exten- sion. First, the preliminary subdivision report from the California Department of Real Estate must be modified to reflect the change in ownership. Secondly, the applicant is proposing to make changes in building plans and will need time for preparation and plan check. Finally,.because of a problem with the water line in the apartments, a tenant relocation plan is being formulated so that any tenant wishing to purchase a converted unit will be temporarily relocated while all necessary plumbing alterations are in progress. This plan will be in Planning Agency and City Council Extension of Use Permit Page 2 addition to relocation provisions for tenants that do not wish to purchase units as mandated by Ordinance 822. Conclusions 1) Approval has been previously granted for conversion. 2) Change of ownership and building problems necessitate extension of time. 3) A tenant relocation program is currently being formulated.
