Item 7.1
April 1, 2025
State Law Compliance
• State changes require local municipalities to continually update their ADU ordinances to align with State Law.
- Government Code Section 65852.2(a)(4)
• State ADU and JADU laws have frequently been amended to support housing development.
- Continuous compliance or risk of adverse enforcement
action from HCD.
• Repealing CVMC 19.58.022 (ADU) and 19.58.023 (JADU) in their entirety will avoid the continuous need to update the CVMC and will ensure compliance by deferring to the
California Government Code and other relevant regulations.
