65658.4. The Legislature finds and declares that encouraging commercial-to-resident conversions to help address the statewide housing crisis addresses a matter of statewide concern rather than a municipal affair as that term is used in Section 5 of Article XI of the California Constitution. Therefore, this article applies to all cities, including charter cities.
