EL Cerrito Preservation

Please use the links below to learn more about El Cerrito Preservation

MISSION STATEMENT:

We are a group of residents united in our efforts to preserve the character of residential neighborhoods surrounding colleges and universities by halting the proliferation of for-profit conversions into so-called "mini-dorms," beginning with El Cerrito, then expanding to other similarly situated neighborhoods in San Diego.


GOALS:

Our short-term goal is to secure a moratorium on further conversion of single-family residences into multi-bedroom houses that could be used as rentals until we can get the building and land use codes permanently changed to ban such conversions and the creation of "mini-dorms" in residential neighborhoods. We will then investigate ways to change state laws to encourage colleges and universities state-wide to provide adequate housing if they expand their admissions so the surrounding neighborhoods do not have to absorb the increased college population. We also plan to coordinate with other neighborhoods in San Diego who are impacted by this issue.
