Oakland

• CIX-1: Yes
• CIX-2: Yes

There are a few other zonings, especially in east oakland, that are also allowed. Any zoning that allows the "Research and development" activity is ok. There are also zonings that conditionally allow, but it takes several months and a few thousand dollars to get the permit, and the property may have been rented out before you're done
