Encourage more accessory dwelling units (ADUs) to increase housing density and affordability by gradually adding new housing in existing residential zones, reducing displacement, and providing housing for a wider range of ages.
Simplify the ADU approval process by providing pre-approved construction plans, expedited (e.g., 30-day) permit approval, and significantly reduced fees.
- Reference local jurisdictional successes in loan programs, permitting, and other procedures to create a successful ADU program.
Support legislation that expands access to ADU funding and streamlining, such as SB 9 and other related legislation.
