parcels.existing_units does not have number of units for residential units #170

This variable almost always returns square footage and not units for buildings with residential units. This is because parcels.unit_name has no records with 'residential_units'.

@hanase should change logic so parcels.existing_units == parcels.residential_units when parcels.residential_units is greater than 0?

@stefancoe It really depends where and how it is used. If a parcel has both, res units and non-res sqft, does the usage of this variable assumes that it gives total sqft?
