- Ministerial Review: Applications that meet all objective standards must be processed within 45 days, expediting approvals.
- Design Review: For applications requiring design changes, the review period has been reduced to 120 days.
- Permitting Efficiency: The faster approval process removes barriers and speeds up housing development.
Legislative Updates
- Senate Bill 13 (SB 13): Lowered barriers and fees for ADU development.
- Assembly Bill 68 (AB 68): Revised ADU regulations and design review procedures.
- Assembly Bill 101 (AB 101): Aimed to speed up review processes and improve predictability.
Increased Design and Size Flexibility
- Height and Setback Adjustments: New ADU regulations now permit larger ADUs with more flexible ADU design options, supporting increased density and adaptive reuse of existing structures.
- Reduced Parking Requirements: Simplified rules for properties with limited parking, along with streamlined ADU permitting processes, make it easier and faster to build ADUs.
- Flexible Zoning: Updated zoning laws offer greater flexibility in ADU designs, promoting sustainability and enhancing livability through improved design standards.
- Community Integration: New guidelines ensure ADUs blend seamlessly with neighborhood aesthetics while offering compact living solutions and affordable housing options.
Enhanced Coordination
