What else applies
- Standards for this use: Chapter 17.425 (Single-Family dwellings).
- State law: State law lets most single-family lots add an ADU and a JADU (California ADU law) and a second home or a lot split under SB 9 (Gov. Code § 65852.21).
- Not covered here: Article 8 definitions (e.g. Assembly/Meeting Facilities, Educational Facilities, Animal Keeping) and the Chapter 17.430 specific-use standards are not in the packet; Overlay zones (RAAB overlay) are not base zones. Overlay zones and specific plans can also change the answer.
