PUBLIC HEARINGS
1. ADU Amendments - The Planning Commission voted on February 9, 2022 to initiate a petition to amend the City's ADU Ordinance. The proposed code revisions would eliminate the conditional use requirement for detached ADUs in single-family residential zones. They would also aim to lower zoning barriers to construction of ADUs in general. The proposed changes would seek to strike a better balance between encouraging construction of ADUs and mitigating impacts to neighboring properties.
