2 issues in zoning with high priority

HighZoning

ADU separate conveyance zoning amendment (AB 1033)

State-mandated changes let single-family lots add up to three units (detached/attached ADU, converted ADU, and junior ADU) and allow up to eight detached ADUs on existing apartment lots. Most junior ADUs no longer require the owner to live on site, and fire sprinklers can't be forced on the primary house.

The city planned to spend $206,500 to keep Hello Housing running its ADU assistance program, which helps homeowners navigate building accessory dwelling units. It's part of the city's push to add more housing options.
