Figure 6: Proposed Elevations <br /> *km-.•. <br /> ABIEB <br /> - in ,� <br /> 0000aoao - oa0000ao <br /> Front(north) Elevation Side(west) Elevation <br /> =-.■, EN <br /> III <br /> • <br /> Rear(south) Elevation <br /> ANALYSIS <br /> Legal Overview <br /> The California legislature has long encouraged accessory dwelling units as a way to address a <br /> variety of housing needs and for providing affordable housing options for family members, <br /> students, the elderly, in-home health care providers, and others. In 2017, the legislature <br /> adopted several new bills to further streamline approvals of ADUs and to limit local <br /> governments' ability to restrict the ability of homeowners to create ADUs. While local <br /> governments are prohibited from precluding ADUs, the legislature did allow for limited design <br /> review, e.g., consideration of height, setbacks, lot coverage, the maximum size of a unit, and <br /> standards that would prevent adverse impacts of any real property listed in the California <br /> Register of Historic Places. Chapter 18.106 of the Pleasanton Municipal Code outlines what <br /> standards may be applied to ADUs and specifies that ADUs are subject to the City's design <br /> review procedures as set forth in PMC Chapter 18.20. In conducting design review of ADUs, <br /> therefore, the City must consider the overriding objectives of State law to facilitate, and not <br /> preclude ADUs. In other words, it would be problematic if the outcome of the design review <br /> process were to effectively deny or preclude construction of an ADU that was otherwise <br /> conforming to the applicable development standards. <br /> Here, the design review process applies because the proposed ADU is over ten feet in height. <br /> The Zoning Administrator typically reviews and approves Design Review applications, with an <br /> appeal of the Zoning Administrator's decision referred to the Planning Commission for <br /> consideration. <br /> P19-0130 Planning Commission <br /> 8 of 15 <br />sion.
