Hillside — Ch. 18 Art. XIII Condominium Conversion § 18-582
Criteria for condominium conversion
Operative Text
Each condominium conversion shall be reviewed upon its merits and the ability to achieve the requirements of this article.
Section 18-582 of Hillside's Chapter 18, Article XIII establishes that no condominium conversion application is automatically approved or denied based on a fixed checklist alone — each proposal is evaluated individually on its own facts and on whether it can satisfy the requirements set out in the article. This case-by-case standard means the reviewing body weighs the specific circumstances of each conversion against the article's criteria. The provision signals a merit-based, holistic review process rather than a purely mechanical one.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under § 18-582, operators pursuing a condominium conversion in Hillside should expect their application to be assessed on its individual merits and its capacity to meet every requirement in Article XIII. A compliant applicant generally prepares thorough documentation demonstrating how the specific project satisfies each criterion in the article, rather than assuming a standard submission will suffice. Because the review is merit-based, operators typically address the unique characteristics of their property proactively in their application materials.

Section 18-582 gives tenants in a building undergoing condominium conversion the assurance that the conversion cannot proceed on a rubber-stamp basis — the proposal must be shown to meet the article's requirements on its own merits. Tenants may have the opportunity to present information to the reviewing body about whether a specific conversion actually satisfies those criteria. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with Hillside's Article XIII process can help residents understand what the merit-based review entails and what avenues exist for participation.
