CA resident manager for apartments - any alternatives?

[Justin Hayman]

I am currently involved in a development project of 239 units in Northern CA. I understand CA civil code states that any apartment community with more than 16 requires an onsite manager if the owner doesn't live onsite.  Code states it can also be a janitor, housekeeper, etc.  

I am wondering if this can be avoided in any way.  There will of course be staff during the day.  Perhaps the implementation of an after-hours emergency service or something of that nature would satisfy code.  

Thanks in advance all.
