Previous Board/Board Committee Actions:
On April 4, 2017 the Board of Supervisors referred this topic to the General Government Committee.
Summary of Referral:
In 2016 a new State law was enacted that is intended to provide incentives for property owners to construct accessory dwelling units as a form of housing. Since that time, California Coastal Commission has provided written guidance, see supporting document, describing how the Commission will allow local governments to approve accessory dwelling units in the Coastal Zone, sometimes without the need to require a Coastal Development Permit. The Commission has also provided guidance, attached, describing how it will approve regulation of short term rentals, in order to maintain housing that is affordable to year round residents living and working in the Coastal Zone.
