D. Following the public hearing, the City Council considered the entire
record of information received at the public hearings before the Planning Commission and City
Council.
Section 3. Findings. In approving the proposed Zoning Code amendment, the City
Council hereby makes the following findings that the Ordinance is consistent with the General
Plan as follows:
A. The proposed Code Amendment is consistent with the following General
Plan Land Use Element Goals and Policies in that accessory dwelling units improve and expand
housing opportunities and housing choice:
1. Features of the Community: A goal of the City is to maintain and
promote those social and physical qualities that enhance the character of the community and the
environment in which we live.
1
2. Housing: It is to be a goal of the City to preserve its low- and
medium -density residential character while still providing a wide choice of living
accommodations and lifestyles for its residents.
B. The proposed Ordinance is consistent with the following City's General
Housing Element Goals and Policies in that it will: facilitate the development of a variety of
housing types for all income levels to meet the existing and future needs of residents; assist in
the development of adequate housing to meet the needs of low- and moderate -income
households; address, and where appropriate and legally possible, remove governmental
constraints to the maintenance, improvement and development of housing; and encourage more
efficient energy use in residential developments.
1. Goal 1: Facilitate the development of a variety of housing types
for all income levels to meet the existing and future needs of residents.
The proposed Ordinance will allow and facilitate the provision of a broader spectrum of ADUs
and hence housing types available to lower income, senior and special needs households.
2. Program 1 c: Second Units: Continue to allow for the development
of second units consistent with state law and the Municipal Code.
The proposed Ordinance will continue to allow second units (ADUs) consistent with state law.
3. Goal 2: Assist in the development of adequate housing to meet the
needs of low- and moderate -income households. U
The proposed Ordinance will allow and facilitate the provision of ADUs thereby adding
additional housing units available to low- and moderate -income households.
4. Policy 2a: Expand housing opportunities for households with
special needs, such as the elderly, disabled, large households, female -headed households, and the
homeless.
The proposed Ordinance will allow and facilitate the provision of ADUs thereby adding
additional housing units available to households with special needs, such as the elderly, disabled,
large households, female -headed households, and the homeless.
5. Policy 2b: Provide incentives for and otherwise encourage the
development of new affordable housing for low- and moderate -income households, including
extremely -low-income persons.
The proposed Ordinance will facilitate and incentivize the provision of a broader spectrum of
ADUs, through relaxed development standards, and hence encourage the development of
additional housing available in particular to lower income households.
6. Policy 2d: Direct the construction of low- and moderate -income
housing to sites that are: U
2
• located with convenient access to schools, parks, public transportation,
shopping facilities, and employment opportunities;
• adequately served by public utilities;
• adequately served by police and fire protection;
• compatible with surrounding existing and planned land uses;
• minimally impacted by noise, flooding, or other environmental
constraints; and
• outside of areas of concentrated lower-income households.
The proposed Ordinance will facilitate and incentivize the provision of a broader spectrum of
ADUs throughout all the City's residential communities thereby assuring they are allowed and
encouraged in areas appropriate for residential use in a manner that does not result in undue
concentration of lower income households.
C. The proposed amendments are also consistent with Chapter 3 of the
Coastal Act, will not have an impact either individually or cumulatively on coastal resources, and
do not involve any change in existing or proposed use of land or water.
Section 4. Chapter 11.4.05.115 (Residential Uses - Accessory Dwelling Units) of
