REGULATIONS FOR ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS (ADUS) AND

JUNIOR ACCESSORY DWELLING UNITS (JADUS) TO COMPLY WITH

STATE LAW

BACKGROUND
This item is a public hearing to consider a request for the City Council to approve Ordinance No. 1183/Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment (ZOTA) No. 30, revising regulations for accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs) to comply with State law.

In 2021, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 1151, which revised regulations for ADUs and added regulations for JADUs in all residential zones citywide. An ADU is a small home that can be a conversion of a garage or other accessory structure, addition to existing home, or a new detached building to the rear of a main house. A JADU is a residential unit that is no more than 500 square feet in size and is contained entirely within an existing or proposed single-family structure. JADUs are not required to contain a bathroom, and a JADU resident may share bathroom facilities with the residents of the primary dwelling.

The State continues to update ADU law. In addition to changes the City must make to the existing ADU ordinance to reflect the most up-to-date State mandates, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) reviewed Ordinance No. 1151 and sent a letter requiring a number of other changes. A copy of the letter is attached.

To help replace the City’s existing, noncompliant ADU regulations, the City Council provided input and clarification at the June 27, 2023, August 9, 2023, and August 22, 2023 City Council meetings. The Planning Commission reviewed a draft ordinance on December 6, 2023 and unanimously recommended approval.

Agenda Report February 27, 2024
ORDINANCE NO. 1183 Page 2

DISCUSSION
The following are proposed provisions of the draft ordinance. The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the proposed changes reflected in this ordinance. • Definitions. In Section 17.104.030, the definition of ADUs is changed to include multifamily dwellings.
• Garage door removal. Section 17.104.060 requires replacement of a garage door compatible with the existing dwelling. HCD states that “the garage door replacement requirement imposes a local development standard that is not allowed by statute.” As such, the ordinance will remove this requirement. Rather than relying on zoning regulations for this issue, the Building Code will address the need to satisfactorily replace a garage door with a wall meeting health and safety laws. • Setbacks. The ADU Ordinance states: “Attached ADUs shall meet the setback requirement of the zone in which they are located.” However, Government Code Section 65852.2 (a)(1)(D)(vii) states: “a setback of no more than four feet from the side and rear lot lines shall be required for an accessory dwelling unit that is not converted from an existing structure or a new structure constructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as an existing structure.” Therefore, underlying zoning requirements cannot take precedence over State statute requiring “no more than four feet.” The Ordinance removes references to the underlying zoning in this section.
• Conversion setbacks. The ADU Ordinance states that “when an existing detached or attached garage is proposed to be converted to an ADU, no additional setbacks shall be required subject to meeting the zoning requirements.” The Ordinance section omits other detached accessory structures that are not garages. Government Code Section 65852.2(a)(1)(D)(iii) provides for an “accessory dwelling unit… either attached to, or located within, the proposed or existing primary dwelling, including attached garages, storage areas or similar uses, or an accessory structure….” Therefore, the phrase “or other detached accessory structure” is added to this language to comply with State law.
• Parking. The existing ADU Ordinance omits four instances found in California Government Code Section 65852.2(d) where parking may not be required:
• The ADU is located within an architecturally and historically significant historic district.
• The ADU is part of the proposed or existing primary residence or an accessory structure.
• Onstreet parking permits are required but not offered to the occupant of the ADU. • A car share vehicle is located within one block of the ADU.

Agenda Report February 27, 2024
ORDINANCE NO. 1183 Page 3
Furthermore, pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.22(b)(1), a parking space may not be required under any circumstance for any JADU. The proposed ordinance incorporates the above four instances and adds the language related to JADUs. • Omission of attached ADUs. The ADU Ordinance creates categories of permissible ADUs. The categories as they appear are compliant with State law, but the Ordinance does not provide for a new ADU construction attached to a primary dwelling.

Government Code Section 65852.2(a)(1)(D)(iii) states: “The accessory dwelling unit is either attached to, or located within, the proposed or existing primary dwelling, including attached garages, storage areas or similar uses, or an accessory structure [and] located on the same lot as the proposed or existing primary dwelling.” (Emphasis added.) Therefore, one attached ADU is permitted on a lot with a primary residence, either a single-family or multifamily dwelling. The proposed ordinance addresses the omission.
• Detached ADUs. The ADU Ordinance states that “corner and exterior setbacks for the zoning designation apply” for corner lot ADUs. However, Government Code Section 65852.2(a)(1)(D)(vii) states: “a setback of no more than four feet from the side and rear lot lines shall be required for an accessory dwelling unit that is not converted from an existing structure or a new structure constructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as an existing structure.” HCD has made the determination that side lot line setback guidelines established in statute apply to the street side of a corner lot. Therefore, the proposed ordinance removes the phrase “corner and exterior setbacks for the zoning designation apply” from Sections 17.140.220(A) and

17.140.240 (A).
• Detached multifamily ADUs. The ADU Ordinance requires that “the total floor area is no more than 850 square feet for a one-bedroom ADU or no more than 1,000 square feet for an ADU that provides more than one bedroom.” Floor area requirements may only be applied to new construction units. Local development standards provided by the Ordinance pursuant to Government Code Section 65852.2 (a) through (d) do not apply to ADUs created under Government Code section 65852.2(e)(1). Converted units created in detached accessory structures are exempt from size limitations. The proposed ordinance amends the ADU Ordinance to comply with statute. • Height. ADU law regarding ADU height changed beginning January 1, 2023. The Government Code states that a jurisdiction must allow ADUs with at least the following:
• A height of 16 feet for a detached ADU on a lot with an existing or proposed single-family or multifamily dwelling unit.
• A height of 18 feet for a detached ADU on a lot with an existing or proposed multifamily, multistory dwelling.

Agenda Report February 27, 2024
ORDINANCE NO. 1183 Page 4
• A height of 25 feet or the height limitation in the local zoning ordinance that applies to the primary dwelling, whichever is lower, for an ADU that is attached to a primary dwelling. This clause shall not require a local agency to allow an ADU to exceed two stories.

At the August 22, 2023 City Council meeting, the City Council agreed to allow a 25-foottall detached ADU with a sloped (not flat) roof on a property with an existing or proposed multifamily, multistory dwelling with a sloped roof. The proposed ordinance notes that ADUs with a slope at least as steep as a “3:12 roof slope” are eligible for the 25-foot height limit. A roof slope of 3:12 means that for every 12 inches horizontal or across, the roof must have a vertical rise (or height) of at least 3 inches.

Below is a diagram showing the minimum roof slope that would qualify such a detached ADU for the 25-foot height allowance.

Environmental Assessment
This ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Section 15305, minor alterations in land use limitations in areas with an average slope of less than 20% that do not result in any changes in land use or density and Section 15061(b)(3) which is the general rule that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment and CEQA does not apply where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity may have a significant effect on the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
None.

VISION, MISSION, VALUES, AND STRATEGIC OUTCOMES
The City’s Vision, Mission, and Values set the standard for the organization, establish priorities, uniformity, and guidelines; and provide the framework for policy decision making. The Strategic Outcomes were implemented to provide a pathway to achieving the City’s Vision of a city that is safe, healthy, and attractive. This item aligns with Strategic Outcome No 1: Safe Community - Provide a safe place to live, work, and visit.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Read by title only, waive further reading, introduce Ordinance No. 1183, and place it on the March 12, 2024 agenda for adoption.

Paramount, CA 90723
Dear Mr. Carver:

RE: Review of Paramount’s Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Ordinance under State ADU Law (Gov. Code, § 65852.2)
Thank you for submitting the City of Paramount’s (City) accessory dwelling unit (ADU) ordinance (Ordinance No. 1151, “the Ordinance”) adopted June 8, 2021, to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD). The Ordinance was received on July 7, 2021. HCD has reviewed the Ordinance and is submitting these written findings pursuant to Government Code section 65852.2, subdivision (h). HCD has determined that the Ordinance does not comply with section 65852.2 in the manner noted below. Under the statute, the City has up to 30 days to respond to these findings.

Accordingly, the City must provide a written response to these findings no later than March 14, 2022.

The adopted ADU Ordinance addresses many statutory requirements; however, HCD finds that the Ordinance does not comply with State ADU Law in the following respects:
• Page 3. Section 17.104.030 Definitions – Definition of “ADUs” – The Ordinance defines ADUs as living spaces “on the same parcel as the single-family dwelling”.

Effective January 2020, the statute changed the definition of an ADU to add that it may be located on the same parcel as a single-family or multifamily dwelling, as noted in Government Code section 65852.2, subdivision (j)(1). Government Code section 65852.2, subdivisions (a)(1) and (a)(1)(D)(ii), allow ADUs in areas zoned single-family or multifamily dwelling residential use. The City should amend the Ordinance definition to include multifamily dwellings. • Page 5. Section 17.104.060 Garage Door Removal – The Ordinance requires that “[i]f an attached or detached garage is converted to an ADU, the garage door shall be replaced with an exterior wall compatible with the existing dwelling.” However, local development standards provided by the Ordinance pursuant to Government Code section 65852.2, subdivisions (a) through (d), do not apply to ADUs created under Government Code section 65852.2 subdivision (e)(1), such as an ADU that is created within the proposed space of a single-family dwelling John Carver, Planning Director

Page 2 ends

(e.g., a garage). Therefore, the garage door replacement requirement imposes a local development standard that is not allowed by statute. The City should remove this requirement.
• Page 6. Section 17.104.130 (B) – Setbacks – The Ordinance states: “Attached ADUs shall meet the setback requirement of the zone in which they are located.” However, Government Code section 65852.2, subdivision (a)(1)(D)(vii), states: “a setback of no more than four feet from the side and rear lot lines shall be required for an accessory dwelling unit that is not converted from an existing structure or a new structure constructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as an existing structure.” Therefore, underlying zoning requirements cannot take precedence over state statute requiring “no more than four feet”. The City should remove references to underlying zoning in this section. • Page 6. Section 17.104.130 (C) – Conversion Setbacks – The Ordinance states that “when an existing detached or attached garage is proposed to be converted to an ADU, no additional setbacks shall be required subject to meeting the zoning requirements.” The Ordinance section omits other detached accessory structures that are not garages. Government Code section 65852.2, subdivision (a)(1)(D)(iii), provides for an “accessory dwelling unit… either attached to, or located within, the proposed or existing primary dwelling, including attached garages, storage areas or similar uses, or an accessory structure….” Therefore, the City should add “or other detached accessory structure” to this language. • Page 6. Section 17.104.150.(A) Parking – The Ordinance states that parking is not required where an ADU or junior ADU (JADU) is within a half-mile walking distance of public transit. While this complies with state law, the Ordinance omits four other instances found in Government Code section 65852.2, subdivision (d), where parking may not be required:
o The ADU is located within an architecturally and historically significant historic district. (Gov. Code, § 65852.2 (d)(2).)
o The ADU is part of the proposed or existing primary residence or an accessory structure. (Gov. Code, § 65852.2 (d)(3).)
o On-street parking permits are required but not offered to the occupant of the ADU. (Gov. Code, § 65852.2 (d)(4).)
o A car share vehicle is located within one block of the ADU. (Gov. Code, § 65852.2 (d)(5).)
Furthermore, pursuant to Government Code section 65852.22, subdivision (b)(1), a parking space may not be required under any circumstance for any JADU. The City should add this language.
• Page 7. Section 17.104.240 – Omission of Attached ADUs – The Ordinance creates categories of permissible ADUs. The categories as they appear are compliant with state law, but the Ordinance does not provide for a new ADU John Carver, Planning Director

construction attached to a primary dwelling. Government Code section 65852.2, subdivision (a)(1)(D)(iii), states: “The accessory dwelling unit is either attached to, or located within, the proposed or existing primary dwelling, including attached garages, storage areas or similar uses, or an accessory structure [and] located on the same lot as the proposed or existing primary dwelling.” (Emphasis added.) Therefore, one attached ADU is permitted on a lot with a primary residence, either a single-family or multifamily dwelling. The City should address the omission.
• Page 7. Section 17.104.220 (A) and 240 (A). Detached ADUs – The Ordinance states that “corner and exterior setbacks for the zoning designation apply” for corner lot ADUs. However, Government Code section 65852.2, subdivision (a)(1)(D)(vii), states: “a setback of no more than four feet from the side and rear lot lines shall be required for an accessory dwelling unit that is not converted from an existing structure or a new structure constructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as an existing structure.” HCD has made the determination that side lot line setback guidelines established in statute apply to the street side of a corner lot. Therefore, the City should remove the phrase “corner and exterior setbacks for the zoning designation apply” from sections

17.140.220 (A) and 240 (A).
• Page 8. Section 17.104.240 (B). Detached Multifamily ADUs – The Ordinance requires that “the total floor area is no more than 850 square feet for a onebedroom ADU or no more than 1,000 square feet for an ADU that provides more than one bedroom.” Floor area requirements may only be applied to new construction units. Local development standards provided by the Ordinance pursuant to Government Code section 65852.2, subdivisions (a) through (d), do not apply to ADUs created under Government Code section 65852.2, subdivision (e)(1). Converted units created in detached accessory structures are exempt from size limitations. (Gov. Code § 65852.2 (e)(1)(C)(i)). The City should amend the Ordinance to comply with statute.

In these respects, revisions are necessary to comply with statute.

HCD will consider any written response to these findings, such as a revised ordinance or a detailed plan to bring the ordinance into compliance with law by a date certain, before taking further action authorized pursuant to Government Code section 65852.2, subdivision (e), paragraphs (4), (5) and (6). Please note that HCD may notify the Attorney General’s Office in the event that the City fails to take appropriate and timely action under section 65852.2, subdivision (h).

C. Not required to correct a nonconforming zoning condition as defined in Section 17.104.030.

D. Not denied a permit based on the presence of building code violations or unpermitted structures, as long as they do not present a threat to public health or safety, and are not affected by the construction of the ADU.

The effect of compliance does not prevent the City from enforcing compliance with applicable building standards in accordance with California Health and Safety Code Section 17980.12.

17.104.030 Definitions applicable to ADUs.

Accessory dwelling unit (ADU). As set forth in Section 17.04.010, an "accessory dwelling unit," or "ADU” means an attached or a detached residential dwelling unit which provides complete independent living facilities for one or more persons.

17.104.050 Applications.

A. A permit application for an ADU or a JADU shall be considered and approved ministerially without discretionary review or a hearing. The City and any associated permitting agencies including, but not limited to, applicable planning departments, building departments, consultants or contractors working as agents of the City, utilities, and special districts, shall approve and issue a building permit or deny the application to create or serve an ADU or a JADU within 60 calendar days after receiving a completed application if there is an existing primary dwelling on the lot and if it meets the minimum ADU and JADU standards of Chapter 17.104 of the Paramount Municipal Code. If the City and any associated permitting agency has not approved or denied the completed application within 60 days, the application shall be deemed approved and a building permit issued for its construction.

B. If the City denies an application for an ADU or JADU pursuant to paragraph A, the City shall, within the 60-day time period set out in (A) above, transmit to the applicant a list of items that are defective or deficient and a description of how the application can be remedied.

C. If the permit application to create an ADU or a JADU is submitted with a permit application to create a new single-family or multifamily dwelling on the lot, the City may delay approving or denying the permit application for the ADU or JADU until the City approves or denies the permit application to create the new dwelling, but the application to create the ADU or JADU shall be considered at the same time without discretionary review or hearing.

D. If the applicant requests a delay, the 60-day time period shall be paused for the period of the delay. If the permit application is returned to the applicant with a list of corrections requested to comply with applicable codes and regulations, the 60-day time period shall be paused for the period of time until the applicant resubmits a corrected application. If the applicant does not submit a corrected application within one year, the file shall be closed.

E. A demolition permit for a detached garage that is to be replaced with an ADU shall be reviewed with the application for the ADU, and a building permit for the ADU shall be issued at the same time as the demolition permit. The applicant shall not be required to provide written notice or post a placard for the demolition of a detached garage that is to be replaced with an ADU.

17.104.060 Impact and permit fees.

A. Impact fees, as defined in Section 17.04.010 and in accordance with California Government Code Section 66000, shall not be imposed during the development of an ADU that has a living area of less than 750 square ORDINANCE NO. 1183

Page 6 ends

feet, except for a developer impact fee levied by the Paramount Unified School District which is required for an ADU larger than 500 square feet in size. Any impact fee that is required for an ADU that is 750 square feet (500 square feet for the school district development impact fee) or larger in size shall be calculated proportionally in relation to the square footage of the primary unit.
(e.g., the living area of the ADU is divided by the living area of the primary dwelling to produce a ratio that is multiplied by the typical fee amount charged for a new dwelling unit):

Impact fee for ADU = (ADU square footage/ primary dwelling square footage) x fee rate
B. Permit fees, as defined in Section 17.04.010, shall be applied to any ADU application and any JADU application, regardless of living area, to reimburse the City for costs incurred during the review and approval process of the application.

C. The property owner shall pay all applicable impact and permit fees that meet the conditions set forth in paragraphs A and B. All such applicable fees shall be paid before a building permit is issued.

17.104.070 Design.

The architectural design, exterior materials, and color of an ADU shall match the architectural design; exterior materials, including window style and materials; roof slopes; and color of the existing or proposed dwelling on the same lot in accordance with adopted residential Objective Design Standards.

17.104.080 Building codes.

City building code requirements set forth in Title 15 of the Paramount Municipal Code shall apply to ADUs and JADUs, except that the construction of an ADU shall not constitute a Group R occupancy change, unless the building official or enforcement agency makes a written finding based on substantial evidence in the record that the construction of the ADU could have a specific, adverse impact on public health and safety. Nothing in this section shall be interpreted to prevent the City from changing the occupancy code of a space that was unhabitable space or that was only permitted for nonresidential use and was subsequently converted for residential use pursuant to this section.

17.104.090 Configuration.

A. An ADU may be attached to the existing dwelling, located within the living area of the existing dwelling, or detached from the existing dwelling unit so long that it is located on the same lot as the existing dwelling.

ORDINANCE NO. 1183

Page 7 ends

Notwithstanding, only one JADU is allowed on the same lot as an ADU.

C. ADUs created through the conversion of existing space in primary or accessory structures are exempt from size limitations.

D. The minimum size for an ADU shall be of sufficient living area for an efficiency unit with efficiency kitchen. ADUs that meet the requirements of Section 17.104.090 shall be approved ministerially as set out in this Chapter.

17.104.110 Lot size.

ADUs shall be permitted on any residential or any mixed-use zone that includes a residential component, without regard to lot size.

17.104.120 Building height.

An attached or detached ADU shall not exceed two stories of livable space, subject to specific building height limitations, measured to the highest point of the structure.

ORDINANCE NO. 1183

ORDINANCE NO. 1183

Page 9 ends

B. Attached ADUs must have rear and side setbacks of at least four feet, unless they are converted from an existing structure or a new structure constructed in the same location and to the same dimensions as an existing structure that has a side or rear setback of less than four feet.

C. When an existing detached or attached garage or other detached accessory structure is proposed to be converted to an ADU, no additional setbacks shall be required subject to meeting the zoning requirements of the Paramount Municipal Code, including, but not limited to, life safety, emergency egress, and fire code requirements set forth therein. When a garage, carport, or covered parking structure is demolished in conjunction with the construction of an ADU or converted to an ADU, the local agency shall not require that those off-street parking spaces be replaced.

D. An ADU may be constructed within the front setback, provided it complies with a certain set of standards:

1. ADUs in the front setback must be set back at least four feet from the front and side property lines, unless there is no alternative to placing an ADU within this area in order to allow an ADU of 800 square feet on a particular parcel.

2. The development of ADUs in the front setback must provide for the maintenance of a safety vision clearance on each side of a driveway.

This vision clearance requirement is for an area that shall be defined by a diagonal line beginning 10 feet back from the front property line, at the intersection with the edges of the driveway, and extending away from the driveway at an angle of 30 degrees to the edge of the driveway toward the street property line of the lot. Within this area, no tree shall be allowed, nor any fence, shrub, or other physical obstruction higher than 42 inches above the established grade shall be permitted.

3. Windows on ADUs within 10 feet of the front property line must be tempered triple-pane glass windows with a Sound Transmission Class rating of 29 or more to reduce the penetration of street noise into the interior of the ADU.

Page 11 ends

ii. Delineation of each co-tenant’s responsibility for the costs of taxes, insurance, utilities, general maintenance and repair, improvements, and any other costs,
obligations, or liabilities associated with the property.

This delineation shall only be binding on the parties to the agreement, and shall not supersede or obviate the
liability, whether joint and several or otherwise, of the parties for any cost, obligation, or liability associated with the property where such liability is otherwise
established by law or by agreement with a third party.
iii. Procedures for dispute resolution among the parties before resorting to legal action.

4. A grant deed naming the grantor, grantee, and describing the property interests being transferred shall be recorded in the county in which the property is located.

C. New construction – detached, single-family dwelling. One detached, new construction ADU that does not exceed four-foot side and rear yard setbacks for a lot with a proposed or existing single-family dwelling. The ADU may be combined with a JADU described in Section 17.104.210 above. The City may impose the following conditions on that ADU:

1. A total floor area of not more than 800 square feet.

2. A height limitation as provided in this Chapter.

D. Conversion – multifamily dwellings. Multiple ADUs within the portions of existing multifamily dwelling structures that are not used as livable space, including but not limited to storage rooms, boiler rooms, passageways, attics, basements, or garages, shall be ministerially approved with objective standards review if each converted ADU complies with State building standards for dwellings.

17.104.220-260 – Reserved.

17.104.270 Existing units.

A. Existing ADUs that have not been approved by the City are required to obtain approval in order to be considered a lawful use. An application for an unpermitted ADU that was constructed before January 1, 2018 shall not be denied due to violations of building standards in Title 15 of the Paramount Municipal Code, or if the unpermitted ADU does not comply with Chapter

17.104 of the Paramount Municipal Code, unless it is found that correcting the violation is necessary to protect the health and safety of the public or occupants of the structure pursuant to Section 17920.3 of the California Health and Safety Code. An application for an unpermitted ADU for which a building permit does not exist shall be approved based the version of the applicable Building Code in effect when the residential unit was determined to be constructed for the purposes of issuing a building permit.

SUBJECT: LED LIGHTING CONVERSION (CITY PROJECT NO. 9490)

BACKGROUND
Included in the Fiscal Year (FY) 2023-24 Capital Improvement Projects Budget is funding for the replacement of interior and exterior lighting to light-emitting diode (LED) lighting at the City Yard. This is not only for energy efficiency, but it will also bring much brighter and higher visibility lighting into employee workspace areas. Quality LED light bulbs last longer, are more durable, and offer comparable or better light quality than other types of lighting. This is also beneficial as these lights are glare-free and less tiring on the eyes.

DISCUSSION
Award of Contract
On Thursday, February 1, 2024, the City published the Request for Proposals in the Paramount Journal and on the City’s website.

On Thursday, February 22, 2024, the Director of Public Works opened and examined the bids for the LED Lighting Conversion (CIP 9490). The bids were opened at 11:00 AM at the City Yard.

The scope of this project involves the retrofit of the lighting as well as two options for the ceiling. Option A includes replacement of the existing drop ceiling grids and tiles with new ones; and Option B included the use of the existing drop ceiling grid and replace the ceiling tiles only. After further analysis of each proposal, Public Works has concluded that it would be in the best interest of the City to proceed with Option A.

Upon conducting the bid analysis as part of the proposal review process, the City determined that the bid proposal submitted by DHI Construction is deemed nonresponsive for (1) failure to have the appropriate contractor license (electrical C10) to selfperform the work and/or, (2) failure to list subcontractors that are to perform the electrical work. Therefore, the apparent low responsible and responsive bid was deemed to be AMTEK Construction in the amount of $79,933 for Option A.
