The proposed amendments are intended to ensure consistency with recently adopted State legislation related to accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs); recently adopted State legislation related to family day care homes; and to facilitate the development of tiny homes and tiny home communities consistent with State policy directives to increase options for affordable housing.
