(a) Proposed projects involving new construction and requiring the demolition of existing residential Units are eligible only if the number of bedrooms in the new Project is at least equal to the total number of bedrooms in the demolished structures. The new Units may exist on separate parcels provided all parcels are part of the same Rental Housing Development meeting the requirements of Section 8303(b).(b) The Department may approve exceptions to subsection (a) where it determines that such exceptions will substantially improve the livability of the remaining units, or serve some other compelling public policy objective. For example, it may approve a reduction in the number of single room occupancy (SRO) units where necessary to add private cooking and bathing facilities, or a reduction in the number of bedrooms in public housing necessary to meet federal requirements.Cal.
