   The purposes of this chapter are to insure a reasonable balance of rental and ownership units in the city in a variety of different housing types, prices and densities; and at the same time provide additional home-ownership opportunities for all segments of the population; to mitigate the hardship caused by displacement of tenants, particularly the elderly and handicapped, and those of low income or special housing needs; to promote the upgrading of condominium conversion projects; to provide adequate off-street parking; and generally to regulate projects in accordance with applicable general plan and code requirements to promote the public health, safety and general welfare.

   In addition to any other requirements of this chapter, any development producing new and previously unoccupied buildings and structures intended for condominium ownership shall comply with the following requirements:

   B.   Condominium units shall not have separate television and radio antennas. Either a central antenna will be provided with connections to each unit via underground or internal wall wiring, or each unit shall be served by a cable antenna service provided by a company licensed to provide such service within the city.
   C.   Required off-street parking, except guest parking, shall be permanently and irrevocably assigned to particular condominium units within the development on the basis of the parking requirements of the zoning district in effect at the time of application.
