Also included in the approval was the condition that a building permit be obtained (or the work to be done for the new ADU. No building permits were ever obtained for the upstairs conversion to living space. The zoning code has subsequently changed, and �ow requires a r�inimum lot size of 5,000 square feet for an ADU to be approved on site. The subject lot is only 4,800 square (eet in area. As of 1998 lhe applicant for the original ADU (RPII98-011) no longer owned the subject residence. Since the applicant of the original ADU application no longer owns the subject residence the ADU approval is expired.
