Explicitly allow for Single Room Occupancy units (SROs) to facilitate the provision of affordable housing for lower-income individuals, including seniors, persons with disabilities, and extremely low-income persons. 2. Allow residential care facilities (sometimes called group homes) with six or fewer residents as a residential use and subject to the same development standards as a single-family dwelling.

Also, allow residential care facilities with seven or more residents in all residential zones subject to a determination that such uses will conform to City noise, parking, and similar standards such that these larger facilities do not negatively impact neighborhoods, but are reviewed in an objective manner similar to other residential uses. (i.e., processed under the same approval process as a large single-family home). The residents and operators of a residential care facility will be considered a family for the purposes of any law or zoning ordinance that relates to the residential use of property. However, “six or fewer persons” does not include the operator, operator’s family, or persons employed as staff. 3. Allow transitional and supportive housing by right in all zones which allow residential uses, subject to the same standards of similar dwellings, consistent with state law. Additionally, transitional and supportive housing that qualifies under AB 2162 will be allowed by right in zones where multi-family and mixed uses are allowed, including nonresidential zones that allow multi-family uses, consistent with AB 2162 (Government Code §65651). 4. Allow low barrier navigation centers by-right in all areas zoned for mixed-uses and nonresidential zones permitting multi-family uses, consistent with AB 101 (Government Code §65660 et seq.).
