Campbell extends interim ordinances implementing SB 450 and ADU rules for one year
Summary
The council unanimously approved extensions of two interim ordinances: one implementing Senate Bill 450 for single-family zoning standards and another extending interim provisions for accessory dwelling units (ADUs/JADUs) to align with recent HCD guidance and legislative updates.
The Campbell City Council on Dec. 25 adopted two interim ordinances that extend urgency provisions governing single-family development and accessory dwelling units (ADUs). Senior planner Daniel Fong told the council both ordinances were set to expire early next year and staff needs more time to prepare updated interim ordinances for spring consideration and eventual incorporation into a permanent ordinance.
Fong summarized the first ordinance as an extension implementing Senate Bill 450, "by removing special requirements and procedures and incorporating uniform objective zoning subdivision and design standards for the single family residential zoning district." He said the second ordinance extends interim provisions related to ADUs and junior ADUs to implement recent feedback and direction from the California Department of Housing and Community Development and to reflect recent legislative changes, including SB 1211 and AB 2533.
No members of the public signed up to speak during the public hearing. Council members moved to adopt item 8.1, waived further reading, and approved both ordinances by unanimous roll call.
Staff said the extensions are intended to give planners additional time to bring updated interim rules to the council in the spring and to work toward a permanent ordinance that aligns with state law and HCD guidance.
