A planning commission approved splitting a 10 unit bungalow court at 4061-4069 1/2 West Melrose Avenue into eight single family homes and a duplex, which would remove the units from rent stabilization. A motion asks the City Council to assert jurisdiction over that decision and send it to committee for further review and public hearing.

What happens next

If the Council asserts jurisdiction, the matter would be referred to committee for further review.
