restriction that are not reflected in the PMC, having a recorded deed restriction appears to be an unnecessary requirement. Other Changes The following additional changes to the ordinance since the July 8 meeting provide clarifying language to better articulate the objective of the code, and/or to better align with state law: • Modified the asterisk to Table 18.84.010 to refer to standards in 18.106 (the asterisk currently refers only to height exceptions). Also, this asterisk and note were added to the zoning districts that allow ADUs. • Referenced Chapter 18.106 in parking section of PMC (Chapter 18.88) so that parking standards for ADUs are itemized in Chapter 18.106 and not Chapter 18.88. • Modified proposed language to 18.106.020(F) to indicate when PUD standards do and do not apply. • Added language to describe height measurement methodology for attached ADUs. • Removed 10-foot streetside yard setback for ADUs. • Clarified that attached ADUs must meet front yard setbacks for the primary structure, except, as noted in recent guidance provided by HCD, encroachment into the front yard setback is allowed if strict compliance would preclude an ADU on the subject property, with such encroachment limited to the extent necessary to accommodate the accessory dwelling unit. • Following recent guidance from HCD, clarified that a property with multiple single-family dwellings on the same lot is considered a one-family development. And, that in a development project that has both one-family and multifamily housing types, the regulations applicable to each type of housing are to be applied, irrespective of whether those single-family or multifamily units are each located on its own lot or on a common parcel. • Reorganized the text referring to the prohibition of upper-story decks and balconies such that it applies to all ADUs (not just second-story ADUs). Therefore, a single-story ADU would also not be permitted to have a rooftop deck. • Following recent guidance from HCD, clarified that in multifamily developments, one of the following types of ADUs are permitted: ADUs resulting from conversion of non- habitable space, or up to two detached ADUs subject to specific development standards in state law. Further, also based on guidance from HCD, the maximum number of ADUs resulting from the conversion of non-habitable space is not to exceed 25% of the existing multifamily units located within each multifamily structure (not 25% of the units located in the development project as previously proposed). • Modified text that relates to the location of the entry door such that it requires the entry door to the ADU to be on a "different facade" than the door to the primary residence as P20-0412, Accessory Dwelling Units Planning Commission 5 of 7 rty owners to enforceable provisions contained within the PMC, and there are no provisions of the deed This 25-foot measurement is to replace the previously proposed requirement imposing one of the window mitigations if a new window in a proposed ADU was facing either a neighboring residence or a neighboring private yard. This change is intended to simplify the standard and remove ambiguity that could arise from the term,"facing"as was discussed in response to the example presented at the July 8 Planning Commission meeting. The PMC will continue to include the provision that the owner of a property with a JADU may rent both the primary unit and the JADU to a single party.
