SUMMARY:
On June 27, 2018, RMA staff presented a report to the Planning Commission on needed amendments to County regulations for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) to update the County Code in light of state legislation that went into effect in January 2017 and January 2018. At that meeting issues were raised regarding parking, the use of modular homes, and consistency of the ordinance with the 2010 Genral Plan. Staf is requesting a continuance for additional time to prepare the analysis to address these issues.
