Summary
- Requires local agencies’ housing elements to include a plan that incentivizes and promotes the creation of ADUs that can offer affordable rents for very low, low-, or moderate-income households and requires HCD to develop a list of state grants and financial incentives in connection with the planning, construction and operation of affordable ADUs.
- Reasonable restrictions on ADUs and JADUs remain permissible provided they do not unreasonably increase construction costs, effectively prohibit construction, or extinguish the ability to build consistent with state minimum standards.
