Adopt an ordinance approving a zoning text amendment (RZ 24-009) to various sections of the Brentwood Municipal Code for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units (JADUs), in compliance with State planning law.
Adoption of the ordinance, which would modify the City’s existing regulatory requirements to be consistent with Article 2, Chapter 13, Division 1, Title 7 of the California Government Code and Article 3 Chapter 13 Division 1 Title 7 of the California Government Code, is exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), pursuant to Section 21080.17 of the Public Resources Code and Section 15282 of the CEQA Guidelines. In addition, amendments to conform to Section 65852.27 of the California Government Code are exempt under the “common sense” exemption, found at CEQA Guidelines Section 15061(b)(3), in that it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that adoption of the amendments will have a significant effect on the environment, in that ADUs permitted under the ordinance incorporating these statutory sections will be permitted by state statute regardless of the adoption of the local ordinance.
