<br /> STAFF RECOMMENDATION
<br /> Staff recommends that the Planning Commission discuss the draft amendments to the
<br /> Pleasanton Municipal Code (PMC) and adopt a resolution recommending approval of Case
<br /> P20-0412 to the City Council with the proposed amendments shown in Exhibit A. At this
<br /> particular meeting, however, staff is not requesting the Planning Commission take action on
<br /> the draft amendments, to ensure an opportunity for the Commission to receive public
<br /> comments, discuss and provide any needed direction.
<br /> EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
<br /> In 2019, the Governor signed into state law six different bills (Senate Bill 13, Assembly Bill 68,
<br /> Assembly Bill 881, Assembly Bill 670, Assembly Bill 587, and Assembly Bill 671) that change
<br /> the regulations for accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and junior accessory dwelling units
<br /> (JADUs). These new rules build upon the changes to law regarding ADUs enacted in 2017,
<br /> and still have the overall objective of encouraging the construction of ADUs. Since local ADU
<br /> ordinances are required to be in conformance with state law, amendments to the City's existing
<br /> regulations are proposed, to match the new requirements for ADUs and JADUs.
<br /> Along with the draft amendments, staff has identified several key topics for discussion for and
<br /> direction by the Planning Commission. Amendments to the zoning chapter of the PMC require
<br />93 of the Health and Safety Code.
<br /> (2) "Qualified nonprofit corporation"means a nonprofit corporation organized pursuant to
<br /> Section 501(c)(3)of the Internal Revenue Code that has received a welfare exemption under
<br /> Section 214.15 of the Revenue and Taxation Code for properties intended to be sold to low-
<br /> income families who participate in a special no-interest loan program.
