City of San Leandro <br />2023-2031 Housing Element Update <br /> <br />3-14 <br /> Evidence establishing that the land proposed for rezone to PD Overlay District is owned by one <br />individual or that the application is filed jointly by all property owners owning property in the <br />proposed district or that the application is filed by an agency of the City. <br />Additional development conditions may be as established in the PD project approval. For PDs <br />proposed in any South Area Zoning District, additional development conditions may be required to <br />achieve consistency with the Design Guidelines that are contained in the East 14th Street South Area <br />Development Strategy. <br />Mobile Home Park Overlay <br />The City of San Leandro has nine mobile home parks with approximately 855 spaces located within <br />the city limits. In 2021, the City adopted the Mobile Home Park (MHP) Overlay District to reserve <br />land for the construction, use, and occupancy of mobile home parks, and prohibit all uses other than <br />a mobile home park use. The MHP Overlay was applied to all existing parcels with mobile home <br />parks. The MHP Overlay District may be combined with any zoning district. Chapter 5.28 of the San <br />Leandro Zoning Code governs the conversion of mobile home parks within the city and requires City <br />Council approval prior to the closure or conversion of a mobile home park. Applicants must submit a <br />relocation plan for tenants of a mobile home park as part of the application for conversion of a <br />mobile home park to another use. <br />3.2.2 Residential Development Standards <br />San Leandro’s Zoning Code contains development standards to protect health and safety, ensure <br />high quality urban design, and ensure compatibility with surrounding uses. When development <br />standards limit the number of housing units that can be built on a particular site or the developable <br />area of a site, the standards may be considered a constraint to housing development. <br />Residential District Standards <br />As previously noted, San Leandro has four residential base districts: RO, RS, RD, and RM. The RS and <br />RM districts each include subdistricts with similar use standards but different setback or density <br />requirements. Table 3.3 summarizes the City’s residential district development standards. <br />To respond to the requirements of SB 35 and achieve high-quality, multi-family projects and <br />predictability for developers and the community, San Leandro completed the Multi-Family <br />Development Standards project. The project updated residential design and development standards <br />throughout the Zoning Code to replace subjective standards with objective standards as well as <br />establish the new RM-875 District. The following strategies were employed to achieve the Multi- <br />Family Development Standards: <br /> Established the RM-875 District to implement the High Density Residential land use <br /> Replaced subjective design standards with objective standards <br /> Consolidated and standardized review procedures <br />The Multi-Family Development Standards project modified and relocated design standards that <br />apply to all multi-family housing throughout the city and eliminated redundant and obsolete <br />provisions in the Zoning Code. <br />
