City of San Leandro <br />Meeting Date: March 20, 2017 <br />Staff Report <br />Agenda Section:File Number:17-123 PUBLIC HEARINGS <br />Agenda Number:5.A. <br />TO:City Council <br />FROM:Chris Zapata <br />City Manager <br />BY:Cynthia Battenberg <br />Community Development Director <br />FINANCE REVIEW:Not Applicable <br />TITLE:Public Hearing to Consider and Adopt Proposed Zoning Code Amendments to <br />Article 5, Section 2-576, “Secondary Dwelling Units,” and Related Conforming <br />Amendments to Respond to New State of California Mandates for Accessory <br />Dwelling Units <br />SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS <br />In September 2016, Governor Brown signed SB 1069 and AB 2299 into law. Both bills intend <br />to address California’s affordable housing crisis by making it easier to develop Accessory <br />Dwelling Units (ADUs). The principal impacts of the new rules are the elimination of parking <br />requirements for ADUs in most urban settings, allowances for garage conversions to ADUs <br />when replacement parking for the primary residence is provided, and reduction of impact fees <br />and utility connection fees for ADUs. The proposed San Leandro Zoning Code amendments <br />will bring the City into compliance with the new State regulations while retaining or updating <br />certain provisions of the Code addressing unit size, neighborhood compatibility, safety, and <br />architectural design. <br />The Planning Commission reviewed the attached text changes to the Zoning Code Article 5, <br />Section 2-576, “Accessory Dwelling Units” and related provisions at its public hearing on <br />March 16, 2017. Staff and the Planning Commission recommend the City Council adopt the <br />proposed Ordinance to amend the Zoning Code to comply with the applicable State <br />mandates. <br />Should the City Council adopt the recommended changes to the Zoning Code, a second <br />reading of this Ordinance would occur at the first meeting in April. The code changes would <br />take effect 30 days after the second reading. <br />BACKGROUND <br />Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), also called secondary dwelling units, in-law apartments, or <br />granny flats, are an important housing resource in California. ADUs are typically created in <br />Page 1 City of San Leandro Printed on 3/13/2017 <br />18
