A. Treatment of Building Relocation.

1. Relocating a building from a lot is considered a demolition for purposes of this chapter.

2. Relocating a building to a lot is considered new construction and is subject to all requirements applicable to new construction.

3. When a building is relocated to a different lot within in Berkeley, the lot from which the building is removed shall be known as the source lot and the lot on which the building is to be sited shall be known as the receiving lot. In such cases all notification requirements apply to both the source and receiving lots.

B. Findings. The ZAB may approve a Use Permit to relocate a building upon finding that:

1. The building to be relocated is not in conflict with the architectural character, or the building scale of the neighborhood or area to which it will be relocated; and

2. The receiving lot provides adequate separation of buildings, privacy, yards, and usable open space. (Ord. 7787-NS § 2 (Exh. A), 2021)
