SUMMARY: The action before Council is to conduct a Public Hearing and adopt an Ordinance
amending BMC Title 20 for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADU) to allow two ADUs per single-family
home lot. The Council already made amendments to the ADU code in December 2020 via Ordinance
5410 to incorporate most of the Planning Commission recommendations. However, the Council
requested that one item, to allow two ADUs per single-family lot, be discussed at a future date.
At this public hearing, the Council will receive comments, but no action will be taken on this
ordinance. The Council is requesting comments on all the following:
• Planning Commission's Recommendation to allow 2 ADU per single-family lot.
• Potential Code Revision #1 — Place limitations about where a second ADU can be
established (i.e. not allow them citywide).
Potential Code Revision #2 — Allow second ADU only if there is owner occupancy on site.
• Potential Code Revision #3 — Allow second ADU only if affordability requirements are met.
• Potential Code Revision #4 — Allow second ADU without additional parking requirements.
• Potential Code Revision #5 — Prohibit all ADUs from being used as short-term rentals.
A public hearing for this item for the Council to make a decision on the proposed Ordinance will be
held tentatively on Wednesday, March 3, 2021.
