Council adopts zoning amendment on accessory dwelling units in response to state law
Summary
The council gave final approval Thursday to amend the Norwalk zoning code for accessory dwelling units to conform with recent state legislation.
The Norwalk City Council approved the final reading of an ordinance amending the city code related to accessory dwelling units (ADUs) to comply with new state legislation.
Staff said state law required changes to the local zoning code; the council had approved a second reading at the prior meeting and approved the final reading on Thursday. Luke, a planning staff member, had no further comments at the meeting and council took no public comment on the final reading.
A motion for final reading was made by Council member Brown and seconded; the roll-call vote recorded affirmative votes from the members present and the ordinance passed.
The council did not add local conditions or amendments at the final reading; the change was described as adopting the state-required modifications into the Norwalk zoning code. Staff will implement the revised provisions and update permit review procedures accordingly.
