PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
On September 2, 1997, the City Council adopted a comprehensive revision of the Dublin Zoning
Ordinance. Implementation of the Zoning Ordinance over the past years has revealed some areas where
the Ordinance requires clarification, improvement, and further revision to conform to changes in related
municipal codes, technology changes and State law. Staff is recommending an amendment to various
chapters of the Zoning Ordinance (see attached Ordinance, Attachment 2) to modify the language of the
ordinance and for internal consistency.
Additionally, the proposed ordinance amendment includes revisions to the regulations related to second
units based on recent changes in the State law regarding the regulation of these dwelling units. On April
22, 2002, Assembly Bill (AB) 1866 (Wright) was adopted by the State legislature amending Government
Code Section 65852.2 requiring that cities establish a review and approval process for second units
providing for a ministerial review and approval process, and prohibiting discretionary review through a
Conditional Use Permit.
SECOND UNIT ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENTS:
The Zoning Ordinance presently allows the construction of Second Units only with a Conditional Use
Permit approved by the Zoning Administrator. A Second Unit is defined in the Zoning Ordinance of the
Municipal Code as a residential unit with a separate kitchen, sleeping, and bathroom facilities, which is
part of, an extension to, or detached from, a detached single-family residence, and which is subordinate to

the principal residence.
Pursuant to the recent changes in State law, the Land Use Matrix in Chapter 8.12, Zoning Districts and
Permitted Use Of Land, Section 8.12.050, Permitted and Conditionally Permitted Land Uses, has been
revised to designate a Second Unit as a permitted use in the Single Family Residential Zoning District.
The process of reviewing and approving Second Units would no longer require a discretionary permit, but
would be subject to issuance of a building permit if it meets the established standards of Chapter 8.80,
Second Unit Regulations of the Zoning Ordinance, as discussed below.
AssemblF Bill 1866:
In adopting AB 1866, the State Legislature amended Government Code Section 65852.2 with the intent of
promoting the approval of second units as a valuable housing tool using established development
standards similar to the ministerial review for a building permit. The amendment is effective on July 1,
2003 and eliminates the discretionary review or hearing process for approval of a second unit. The
Legislature believed that the Conditional Use permit process utilized by most municipalities in approving
the development of second units in residential zoning districts was "excessive" and "burdensome," and
unreasonably restrictive to homeowners. The amendment does allow the City to establish a procedure and
specific criteria in its zoning ordinance for evaluating second units relative to parking, height, setbacks
and other matters, but prohibits the local jurisdiction from requiring discretionary or more subjective
review of second units. The State Legislature has been concerned that municipalities have been utilizing
the discretionary review process to restrict property owners from developing second units.
Proposed Second Unit Regulation Modifications:
To implement the new State law regarding second units, The City of Dublin is required to revise the
Zoning Ordinance to ensure compliance with newly enacted regulations. Section 8.80.030, Regulations of
the Zoning Ordinance is required to be modified. This section's title is proposed to be revised to 'Section
8.80.040, Development Standards and Regulations,' and would allow a second unit to be permitted within
the R-1 Residential District and Planned Development Districts (if not prohibited by the PD regulations)
with issuance of a building permit if it complies with certain recommended development standards (which
are discussed in more detail below). It also eliminates the requirement of obtaining a Conditional Use
Permit approval from the Zoning Administrator, and revises the numbering of the section.
In addition to the revised section mentioned above, Staff is recommending adding Section 8.80.050,
Permitting Procedures, to the Zoning Ordinance. This would be a new section added to Chapter 8.80,
Second Unit Regulations, of the Zoning Ordinance to establish the application procedure for a request for a
building permit for second units. This Section includes the standard application submittal requirements,
which must be met when submitting for a building permit for a second unit to determine if a building permit
can be issued. In addition to the standard submittal requirements for a building permit, Staff is
recommending that additional criteria be added in order to determine consistency with the City's General
Plan and applicable Specific Plan. This criteria is similar to the information currently required by the
Second Unit regulations, however the criteria has been modified in order to be consistent with the new
State law. Following is the new section of the ordinance, which outlines the information that an applicant
for a new second dwelling unit would be required to include with their submittal:
Site Plan: The plan is to be drawn to scale, showing the dimensions of the perimeter of
the parcel on which the second unit will be located. The location and dimensioned
setbacks of all existing and proposed structures on the project site are to be indicated on the
plan.
Lot Coverage: Calculations indicating the square footage of the structure and the lot are
to be included on the plan, and also calculations for the percentage of lot area covered by
the foundation of the new and existing structures on the lot. The maximum lot coverage
for all structures on the lot will remain 60%.
o
Elevations: North, south, east and west elevations showing all openings, exterior finishes,
original and finish grades, stepped footing outline, roof pitch, materials and color board for
the existing residence and the proposed second unit are to be submitted to ensure that the
unit will be compatible with existing units on the lot.
Utility and Service Information: Information on available utility easements, services and
connections, and roadway access to the site is to be included in the submittal to ensure the
second unit will be served by utilities and infrastructure.
Color Photographs: Provide color photographs of the site. The photos shall be taken
from each of the property lines of the project site to show the site. Label each photograph
and reference to a separate site plan indicating the location and direction of the photograph.
o
Deed Restriction: Provide the completed deed restriction as required, signed and ready
for recordation. The deed restriction is to stipulate that the second unit will not be sold
separately; is restricted to a maximum size based on lot coverage; is allowed as long as the
owner of record occupies either the primary residence or the second unit on the property;
and, the restrictions are binding on all successors in ownership of the property.
Second Unit Parking:
The revision to this section would modify the reference to the subsection for Second Unit parking to be
consistent with the previous revisions. The Off-Street and Loading Regulations for Second Units on
single family lots is proposed for modification to reference Section 8.80.040.F, which requires one
additional off-street parking space to be provided for the dwelling unit. The second unit parking space
would be in addition to the parking spaces required for the principal residence. The modification in the
language of this subsection will also provide some flexibility in the type of parking space to be provided by
allowing it to be compact, uncovered, or in tandem with the required parking for the principal dwelling unit.
As this section of the ordinance stated that the parking for the second unit could be located in the Side Yard
Setback if specifically permitted by a Conditional Use Permit, and that requirement is no longer valid based
on the amendment to the State law, some flexibility in the type of parking space is appropriate. With respect
to yard setbacks and location of parking, the location of the parking for the second unit would follow the
same standards as those established for the principal residence.
Another change in this subsection of the ordinance relates to the requirement of an Encroachment Permit for
a curb cut to access the parking for the second unit. Presently, an Encroachment Permit granted by the
Director of Public Works must be obtained for the curb cut; however, with the proposed change to the
ordinance, the curb cut would be required to meet the City standard, but an Encroachment Permit would no
longer be necessary.
Based on the proposed revisions, if all the above requirements are met and the proposed second unit
conforms to the specific standards contained in Section 8.80.040, Development Standards and
Regulations, the Community Development Department must then issue a building permit for the second
dwelling unit.

HOME OCCUPATIONS ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENT:
The Zoning Ordinance section restricting the number of Home Occupations to no more than two per
residence is proposed to be deleted. This would allow an unlimited number of home occupation permits
per residence. Based on Staff research, it appears that the number of home occupations per residence may
have been restricted for practical reasons, as each business could potentially use a portion of the square
footage of the residence. However, with the advent of intemet based businesses, a resident could work
out of their home and presumably conduct several businesses at one time within a minimal amount of
floor area or space. Because of this, Staff suggests deleting this section of the Home Occupation
Regulations to remove the restriction.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW:
On August 18, 1997, the City Council adopted Resolution 103-97 finding that the Comprehensive
Revision to the Zoning Ordinance, including Chapter 8.12, Zoning Districts and Permitted Use Of Land;
Chapter 8.64, Home Occupations Regulations; Chapter 8.76, Off-Street Parking And Loading
Regulations; and, Chapter 8.80, Second Unit Regulations, is exempt from the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA). Various changes to the Municipal Code listed above would also not create
environmental impacts. These changes are also exempt from CEQA because it can be seen with certainty
that there is no possibility that such amendments would have a significant effect on the environment
(CEQA Guidelines, Section 15061 (b)(3)). Additionally, the proposed amendment relating to second units
are further exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15282(i) as second units on developed lots would
have no possibility of having an adverse effect on the environment, and the amendment is consistent with
the General Plan and all applicable Specific Plans.
CONCLUSION:
The Zoning Ordinance (Chapter 8.120), requires that all zoning ordinance amendments (such as the
proposed amendment to the Zoning Districts and Permitted Uses of Land, Home Occupations, Off-Street
Parking Regulations, and Second Unit Regulations chapters) be heard by the Planning Commission and
following a public hearing, the Planning Commission shall make a written recommendation to the City
Council whether to approve, approve with modifications or disapprove the amendment.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that the Planning Commission: 1. Open the Public Heating and receive Staff presentation.
2. Take testimony from the Applicant and the Public.
3. Question Staff, Applicant and the Public.
4. Close Public Hearing and deliberate.
5. Adopt resolution (Attachment 1) recommending that the City Council adopt the Ordinance
(Attachment 2) to amend the Dublin Municipal Code (Zoning Ordinance).
