(a) Findings. San Francisco faces a continuing shortage of affordable housing. There is a high ratio of rental to ownership tenure among the City's residents. The General Plan recognizes that existing housing is the greatest stock of rental and financially accessible residential units, and is a resource in need of protection. Therefore, a public hearing will be held prior to approval of any permit that would remove existing housing, with certain exceptions, as described below. The Planning Commission shall develop a Code Implementation Document setting forth procedures and regulations for the implementation of this Section 317 as provided further below. The Zoning Administrator shall modify economic criteria related to property values and construction costs in the Implementation Document as warranted by changing economic conditions to meet the intent of this Section.
(1) "Residential Conversion" shall mean the removal of cooking facilities, change of occupancy (as defined and regulated by the Building Code), or change of use (as defined and regulated by the Planning Code), of any Residential Unit or Unauthorized Unit to a Non-Residential or Student Housing use.
(2) "Residential Demolition" shall mean any of the following:
(A) Any work on a Residential Building for which the Department of Building Inspection determines that an application for a demolition permit is required, or
(B) A major alteration of a Residential Building that proposes the Removal of more than 50% of the sum of the Front Facade and Rear Facade and also proposes the Removal of more than 65% of the sum of all exterior walls, measured in lineal feet at the foundation level, or
(C) A major alteration of a Residential Building that proposes the Removal of more than 50% of the Vertical Envelope Elements and more than 50% of the Horizontal Elements of the existing building, as measured in square feet of actual surface area.
(D) The Planning Commission may reduce the above numerical elements of the criteria in Subsections (b)(2)(B) and (b)(2)(C), by up to 20% of their values should it deem that adjustment is necessary to implement the intent of this Section 317, to conserve existing sound housing and preserve affordable housing.
(3) "Façade" is defined in Section 102 of this Code.
(4) "Front Façade" is defined in Section 102 of this Code.
(5) "Horizontal Elements" shall mean all roof areas and all floor plates, except floor plates at or below grade.
(6) "Mandatory Discretionary Review" is defined in Section 102 of this Code.
(7) "Residential Merger" shall mean the combining of two or more Residential or Unauthorized Units, resulting in a decrease in the number of Residential Units and Unauthorized Units within a building, or the enlargement of one or more existing units while substantially reducing the size of others by more than 25% of their original floor area, even if the number of units is not reduced. The Planning Commission may reduce the numerical element of this criterion by up to 20% of its value should it deem that adjustment is necessary to implement the intent of this Section 317, to conserve existing housing and preserve affordable housing.
(8) "Rear Façade" is defined in Section 102 of this Code.
(9) "Removal" shall mean, with reference to a wall, roof or floor structure, its dismantling, its relocation or its alteration of the exterior function by construction of a new building element exterior to it. Where a portion of an exterior wall is removed, any remaining wall with a height less than the Building Code requirement for legal head room shall be considered demolished. Where exterior elements of a building are removed and replaced for repair or maintenance, in like materials, with no increase in the extent of the element or volume of the building, such replacement shall not be considered Removal for the purposes of this Section. The foregoing does not supersede any requirements for or restrictions on noncomplying structures and their reconstruction as governed by Article 1.7 of this Code.
(10) "Removal" shall mean, with reference to a Residential or Unauthorized Unit, its Conversion, Demolition, or Merger.
(11) "Residential Building" is defined in Section 102 of this Code.
(12) "Residential Unit" shall mean a legal conforming or legal nonconforming Dwelling Unit, a legal nonconforming Live/Work Unit or Group Housing.
(13) "Unauthorized Unit" shall mean one or more rooms within a building that have been used, without the benefit of a building permit, as a separate and distinct living or sleeping space independent from Residential Units on the same property. "Independent" shall mean that (i) the space has independent access that does not require entering a Residential Unit on the property and (ii) there is no open, visual connection to a Residential Unit on the property.
(14) "Vertical Envelope Elements" shall mean all exterior walls that provide weather and thermal barriers between the interior and exterior of the building, or that provide structural support to other elements of the building envelope.
(c) Applicability; Exemptions.
(1) Within the Priority Equity Geographies Special Use District, any application for a permit that would result in the Removal of one or more Residential Units or Unauthorized Units is required to obtain Conditional Use authorization.
(2) Outside the Priority Equity Geographies Special Use District, any application for a permit that would result in the Removal of one or more Residential Units or Unauthorized Units is required to obtain Conditional Use authorization unless it meets all the following criteria:
(A) The units to be demolished are not tenant occupied and are without a history of evictions under Administrative Code Sections 37.9(a)(8)-(12) or 37.9(a)(14)-(16) within the last five years, and have not been vacated within the past five years pursuant to a Buyout Agreement, as defined in Administrative Code Section 37.9E, as it may be amended from time to time, regardless of whether the Buyout Agreement was filed with the Rent Board pursuant to Administrative Code Section 37.9(E)(h);1
(B) No units would be removed or demolished that are:
(i) subject to a recorded covenant, ordinance, or law that restricts rents to levels affordable to persons and families of lower- or very low-income within the past five years; or
(ii) subject to limits on rent increases under the Residential Rent Stabilization and Arbitration Ordinance (Chapter 37 of the Administrative Code) within the past five years; or
(iii) rented by lower- or very low-income households within the past five years;
(C) The building proposed for demolition is not an Historic Building as defined in Section 102, and further provided that if the building proposed for demolition was built before 1923, the Planning Department has determined that it does not meet the criteria for designation as an Historic Building as defined in Section 102;
(D) The proposed project is adding at least one more unit than would be demolished;
(E) The proposed project complies with the requirements of Section 66300(d) of the California Government Code, as may be amended from time to time, including but not limited to requirements to replace all protected units, and to offer existing occupants of any protected units that are lower income households relocation benefits and a right of first refusal for a comparable unit, as those terms are defined therein;
(F) The project sponsor certifies under penalty of perjury that any units to be demolished are not tenant occupied and are without a history of evictions under Administrative Code Sections 37.9(a)(8)-(12) or 37.9(a)(14)-(16) within last five years, and have not been vacated within the past five years pursuant to a Buyout Agreement, as defined in Administrative Code Section 37.9E, as it may be amended from time to time, regardless of whether the Buyout Agreement was filed with the Rent Board pursuant to Administrative Code Section 37.9E(h); and
(G) The project sponsor has conducted one meeting prior to or within 20 days of filing a development application. Following submission of a development application, the Planning Department shall not determine a development application to be complete without confirmation that the project sponsor has held at least one meeting conforming to the requirements of this subsection (c)(2)(G) and any additional procedures the Planning Department may establish. The project sponsor shall provide mailed notice of the meeting to the individuals and neighborhood organizations specified in Planning Code Section 333(e)(2)(A) and (C), as well as posted notice as set forth in Planning Code Section 333(e)(1).
4 1
For Unauthorized Units, this Conditional Use authorization will not be required for Removal if the Zoning Administrator has determined in writing that the unit cannot be legalized under any applicable provision of this Code. The application for a replacement building or alteration permit shall also be subject to Conditional Use requirements.
(5) The Conditional Use requirement of subsubsections1
(c)(1) and (c)(2) shall apply to (A) any building or site permit issued for Removal of an Unauthorized Unit on or after March 1, 2016, and (B) any permit issued for Removal of an Unauthorized Unit prior to March 1, 2016 that has been suspended by the City or in which the applicant’s rights have not vested.
(6) The Removal of a Residential Unit that has received approval from the Planning Department through administrative approval or the Planning Commission through a Discretionary Review or Conditional Use authorization prior to the effective date of the Conditional Use requirement of subsections (c)(1) or (c)(2) is not required to apply for an additional approval under this Section 317.
(7) Exemptions for Unauthorized Dwelling Units. The Removal of an Unauthorized Unit does not require a Conditional Use authorization pursuant to subsections (c)(1) or (c)(2) if:
(A) the Unauthorized Unit requires a waiver of open space or dwelling unit exposure requirements, and the Unauthorized Unit is ineligible for a waiver or exemption from those standards pursuant to Section 307, Section 207(c)(4) (Accessory Dwelling Units - Local Program), Section 207(c)(6) (Accessory Dwelling Units - State Mandated Program), or Section 207.3 (Dwelling Unit Legalization Program); or
(B) the Unauthorized Unit has no contiguous area that meets both the required minimum superficial floor area in Housing Code Section 503(b) and the minimum legal floor-to-ceiling height requirement in Housing Code Section 503(a).
(9) Exception for Certain Permits Filed Before February 11, 2020. An application to demolish a Single-Family Residential Building on a site in a RH-1 or RH-1(D) District that is demonstrably not affordable or financially accessible housing, meaning housing that has a value greater than 80% than the combined land and structure values of single-family homes in San Francisco as determined by a credible appraisal made within six months of the application to demolish, is exempt from the Conditional Use authorization requirement of subsections (c)(1) or (c)(2), provided that a complete Development Application was submitted prior to February 11, 2020.
(10) Exception for Certain Unauthorized Units with No Tenant Occupant for 10 Years. The Conditional Use requirement of subsections (c)(1) and (c)(2) shall not apply to an application for a permit that would result in the Removal of an Unauthorized Unit in a one-family dwelling where all of the conditions in subsection (c)(10)(A) are met. To establish eligibility, the owner shall furnish a declaration under penalty of perjury on a form prescribed by the Department, attesting to compliance with all of the conditions in subsection (c)(10)(A).
(A) Eligibility. The one-family dwelling shall meet all the following criteria:
(i) the owner currently resides in the primary dwelling unit;
(ii) the Unauthorized Unit has not been rented for consideration in the last 10 years. For the purposes of this subsection (c)(10)(A)(ii), “rented for consideration” shall not include any use or tenancy of the Unauthorized Unit by a blood, adoptive, or step-family relationship, specifically by a grandparent, parent, sibling, child, or grandchild, or the spouse or registered domestic partner of such relations, or by a property owner’s spouse or registered domestic partner;
(iii) the owner intends to reside in the one-family dwelling for at least three years after the Removal of the Unauthorized Unit is approved; and
(iv) the owner enters into a regulatory agreement with the City subjecting the one-family dwelling to the San Francisco Residential Rent Stabilization and Arbitration Ordinance (Chapter 37 of the Administrative Code) pursuant to subsection (c)(10)(B).
(B) Regulatory Agreement. Sponsors of projects utilizing the Conditional Use Authorization exception in subsection (c)(10) of this Section 317 shall enter into a regulatory agreement with the City subjecting the one-family dwelling to the Residential Rent Stabilization and Arbitration Ordinance (Chapter 37
of the Administrative Code), as amended from time to time, as a condition of approval of the permit to remove the Unauthorized Unit (“Regulatory Agreement”). The property owner and the Planning Director, or the Director’s designee, on behalf of the City, shall execute the Regulatory Agreement, which is subject to review and approval by the City Attorney’s Office. The Regulatory Agreement shall be executed prior to the City’s issuance of the permit to remove the Unauthorized Unit. Following execution of the Regulatory Agreement by all parties and approval by the City Attorney, the Regulatory Agreement or a memorandum thereof shall be recorded in the title records in the Office of the Assessor-Recorder against the property and the Regulatory Agreement shall be binding on all future owners and successors in interest. At a minimum, the Regulatory Agreement shall contain the following:
(i) A statement that the one-family dwelling is not subject to the Costa-Hawkins Rental Housing Act (California Civil Code Section 1954.50 et seq.) Further, that under Section 1954.52(b), the property owner has entered into and agreed to the terms of the agreement with the City in consideration for other forms of assistance or other direct financial contribution specified in California Government Code Section 65915 et seq.;
(ii) A description of the forms of assistance or other direct financial contribution provided to the property owner; and
(iii) A description of the remedies for breach of the agreement and other provisions to ensure implementation and compliance with the agreement.
(d) Demolition.
(1) No permit to Demolish a Residential Building in any zoning district shall be issued until a building permit for the replacement structure is finally approved, unless the building is determined to pose a serious and imminent hazard as defined in the Building Code. A building permit is finally approved if the Board of Appeals has taken final action for approval on an appeal of the issuance or denial of the permit or if the permit has been issued and the time for filing an appeal with the Board of Appeals has lapsed with no appeal filed.
(2) Conditional Use authorization is required for approval of the permit for Residential Demolition, and the Commission shall consider the replacement structure as part of its decision on the Conditional Use application. If Conditional Use authorization is required for the replacement structure by other sections of this Code, the Commission shall consider the demolition as part of its decision on the Conditional Use application.
(3) The Planning Commission, in the Code Implementation Document, shall adopt criteria and procedures for determining the soundness of a structure proposed for demolition, where “soundness” is an economic measure of the feasibility of upgrading a residence that is deficient with respect to habitability and Housing Code requirements, due to its original construction. The “soundness factor” for a structure shall be the ratio of a construction upgrade cost (i.e., an estimate of the cost to repair specific habitability deficiencies) to the replacement cost (i.e., an estimate of the current cost of building a structure the same size as the existing building proposed for demolition), expressed as a percentage. A building is unsound if its soundness factor exceeds 50%. A Residential Building that is unsound may be approved for demolition without requiring a Conditional Use authorization.
(4) Nothing in this Section is intended to permit Residential Demolition in those areas of the City where other sections of this Code prohibit such demolition or replacement structure.
(5) Nothing in this Section is intended to exempt buildings or sites where demolition is proposed from undergoing review with respect to Articles 10 and 11 of the Planning Code, where the requirements of those articles apply. Notwithstanding the definition of "Residential Demolition" in this section and as further described in the Code Implementation Document with regard to Residential Demolition, the criteria of Section 1005 shall apply to projects subject to review under the requirements of Article 10 with regard to the structure itself.
(e) Conversion to Student Housing. The conversion of Residential Units to Student Housing is prohibited. For the purposes of this subsection, Residential Units that have been defined as such by the time a First Certificate of Occupancy has been issued by the Department of Building Inspection for new construction shall not be converted to Student Housing.
(f) Residential Merger. The Merger of Residential Units, not otherwise subject to Conditional Use authorization by this Code, or exempted from the Conditional Use requirement by this Section 317, shall be prohibited.
(g) Conditional Use Criteria.
(1) C-3 Districts. When considering whether to grant Conditional Use authorization for the loss or Removal of Residential or Unauthorized Unit(s) in the C-3 districts, in lieu of the criteria set forth in Planning Code Section 303, consideration shall be given to the adverse impact on the public health, safety, and general welfare of the loss of housing stock in the district and to any unreasonable hardship to the applicant if the permit is denied.
(2) Residential Merger. The Planning Commission shall consider the following criteria in the review of applications to merge Residential Units or Unauthorized Units:
(A) whether removal of the unit(s) would eliminate only owner occupied housing, and if so, for how long the unit(s) proposed to be removed have been owner occupied;
(B) whether removal of the unit(s) and the merger with another is intended for owner occupancy;
(C) whether removal of the unit(s) will remove an affordable housing unit as defined in Section 401 of this Code or housing subject to the Residential Rent Stabilization and Arbitration Ordinance;
(D) if removal of the unit(s) removes an affordable housing unit as defined in Section 401 of this Code or units subject to the Residential Rent Stabilization and Arbitration Ordinance, whether replacement housing will be provided which is equal or greater in size, number of bedrooms, affordability, and suitability to households with children to the units being removed;
(E) how recently the unit being removed was occupied by a tenant or tenants;
(F) whether the number of bedrooms provided in the merged unit will be equal to or greater than the number of bedrooms in the separate units;
(G) whether removal of the unit(s) is necessary to correct design or functional deficiencies that cannot be corrected through interior alterations;
(H) the appraised value of the least expensive Residential Unit proposed for merger only when the merger does not involve an Unauthorized Unit.
The Planning Commission shall not approve an application for Residential Merger if any tenant has been evicted pursuant to Administrative Code Sections 37.9(a)(9) through 37.9(a)(14) where the tenant was served with a notice of eviction after December 10, 2013 if the notice was served within 10 years prior to filing the application for merger. Additionally, the Planning Commission shall not approve an application for Residential Merger if any tenant has been evicted pursuant to Administrative Code Section 37.9(a)(8) where the tenant was served with a notice of eviction after December 10, 2013 if the notice was served within five (5) years prior to filing the application for merger. This subsection (g)(2)(H) shall not apply if the tenant was evicted under Section 37.9(a)(11) or 37.9(a)(14) and the applicant(s) either (A) have certified that the original tenant reoccupied the unit after the temporary eviction or (B) have submitted to the Planning Commission a declaration from the property owner or the tenant certifying that the property owner or the Rent Board notified the tenant of the tenant’s right to reoccupy the unit after the temporary eviction and that the tenant chose not to reoccupy it.
(3) Residential Conversion. The Planning Commission shall consider the following criteria in the review of applications for Residential Conversion;
(A) whether conversion of the unit(s) would eliminate only owner occupied housing, and if so, for how long the unit(s) proposed to be removed were owner occupied;
(B) whether Residential Conversion would provide desirable new Non- Residential Use(s) appropriate for the neighborhood and adjoining district(s);
(C) in districts where Residential Uses are not permitted, whether Residential Conversion will bring the building closer into conformance with the Uses permitted in the zoning district;
(D) whether conversion of the unit(s) will be detrimental to the City's housing stock;
(E) whether conversion of the unit(s) is necessary to eliminate design, functional, or habitability deficiencies that cannot otherwise be corrected;
(F) whether the Residential Conversion will remove Affordable Housing, or units subject to the Residential Rent Stabilization and Arbitration Ordinance.
(4) Planning Commission approval shall not be required for the change of use or occupancy of a Dwelling Unit, Group Housing, or SRO to Student Housing if the Dwelling Unit, Group Housing, or SRO will be Student Housing owned, operated or otherwise controlled by a not for profit post-secondary Educational Institution and
(A) it was built by the post-secondary Educational Institution;
(B) it is in a convent, monastery, or similar religious order facility;
(C) it is on an adjoining lot (i.e., sharing the same lot line) to the post- secondary Educational Institution, so long as the lot has been owned by the post-secondary Educational Institution for at least ten years as of the effective date of Ordinance 188-12; or
(D) as of August 10, 2010, it was owned, operated or otherwise controlled by a post-secondary Educational Institution that had an Institutional Master Plan on file with the Planning Commission, and where the occupancy by those other than students at that date was less than 20% of the total occupants. For purposes of determining occupancy, the post- secondary Educational Institution shall present to the Planning Department verified information regarding its rental or lease of units as of that date.
(5) Planning Commission approval shall not be required for a Residential Conversion if the Residential Unit was subject to the Residential Hotel Unit Conversion and Demolition Ordinance, San Francisco Administrative Code Chapter 41, and obtained a permit to convert in compliance with the requirements set forth therein.
(6) Residential Demolition. The Planning Commission shall consider the following additional criteria in the review of applications for Residential Demolition:
(A) whether the property is free of a history of serious, continuing Code violations;
(B) whether the housing has been maintained in a decent, safe, and sanitary condition;
(C) whether the property is an "historical resource" under CEQA;
(D) whether the removal of the resource will have a substantial adverse impact under CEQA;
(E) whether the project converts rental housing to other forms of tenure or occupancy;
(F) whether the project removes rental units subject to the Residential Rent Stabilization and Arbitration Ordinance or affordable housing;
(G) whether the project conserves existing housing to preserve cultural and economic neighborhood diversity;
(H) whether the project conserves neighborhood character to preserve neighborhood cultural and economic diversity;
(I) whether the project protects the relative affordability of existing housing;
(J) whether the project increases the number of permanently affordable units as governed by Section 415;
(K) whether the project locates in-fill housing on appropriate sites in established neighborhoods;
(L) whether the project increases the number of family-sized units on-site;
(M) whether the project creates new supportive housing;
(N) whether the project is of superb architectural and urban design, meeting all relevant design guidelines, to enhance existing neighborhood character;
(O) whether the project increases the number of on-site Dwelling Units;
(P) whether the project increases the number of on-site bedrooms;
(Q) whether or not the replacement project would maximize density on the subject lot; and
(R) if replacing a building not subject to the Residential Rent Stabilization and Arbitration Ordinance, whether the new project replaces all of the existing units with new Dwelling Units of a similar size and with the same number of bedrooms.
(7) Removal of Unauthorized Units. In addition to the criteria set forth in subsections (g)(1) through (g)(6) above, the Planning Commission shall consider the criteria below in the review of applications for removal of Unauthorized Units:
(A) whether the Unauthorized Unit has been rented within the 10 years preceding the application, excluding any use of the Unauthorized Unit by a blood, adoptive, or step-family relationship, specifically by a grandparent, parent, sibling, child, or grandchild, or the spouse or registered domestic partner of such relations, or by a property owner’s spouse or registered domestic partner;
(8) Denial of Application to Remove an Unauthorized Unit; Requirement to Legalize the Unit. If the Planning Commission denies an application to Remove an Unauthorized Unit, the property owner shall file an application for a building permit to legalize the Unit. Failure to do so within a reasonable period of time, as determined by the Zoning Administrator, shall be deemed to be a violation of the Planning Code.
(h) Notice of Conditional Use Hearing. For any hearing to consider a Conditional Use authorization required under subsection (g)(2), (g)(3), (g)(4), or (g)(5), the Zoning Administrator shall provide notice as required by Section 333 of this Code, including an explanation of the process for demolishing, merging, or converting Residential Units or Unauthorized Units, and including a description of subsequent permits that would be required from the Planning Department and Department of Building Inspection and how they could be appealed, in addition to any other notice required under this Code.
(1) Owned by the United States or any of its agencies;
(2) Owned by the State of California or any of its agencies, with the exception of such property not used exclusively for a governmental purpose;
(3) Under the jurisdiction of the Port of San Francisco or the Successor Agency to the Redevelopment Agency of the City and County where the application of this Section is prohibited by State or local law; or
(4) Where demolition of the building or Removal of a Residential Unit or Unauthorized Unit is necessary to comply with a court order or City order that directs the owner to demolish the building or remove the unit, due to conditions that present an imminent threat to life safety.
