General Plan AmendmentApproved

Zoning Ordinance Amendment — Repeal and Replace Chapter 17.32, Accessory Dwelling Units (ZOA 2026-3)

Hollister

Description

The council updated its ADU rules to comply with new state law — 15-day reviews, codified impact fees, and rules for unpermitted ADUs. Staff promised an over-the-counter pre-approved plan program to follow.

Impact summary

Homeowners will get clearer, faster ADU approvals; a pre-approved plan program could cut costs further, though impact fees above 750 square feet remain a sticking point for some.
