PlanningBoard | 2020-02-10 | 6 | detached units and/or duplexes. He expressed support for eliminating the lot coverage requirements. He proposed allowing a design standard option from the Secretary of the Interior be included. Board Member Hom said he would like to keep the 25% maximum, but is open to allowing duplexes. Board Member Saheba expressed support for modifying the 25% rule to "round up." Assistant City Attorney Chen raised the possibility that rounding up would exceed the 25% maximum language and possibly expose the ordinance to being nullified from some sort of legal challenge. Board Member Teague said there is a provision that permits local ordinances to be less restrictive than the state law and would be willing to risk exceeding the 25% by rounding up. He asked Christopher Buckley to comment on the differentiation question in the Secretary of the Interior standards as pertains to detached ADUs. Mr. Buckley said there is a lot of discretion and varying interpretations of what differentiation means in the standards. Board Member Hom made a motion to approve the ordinance with an amendment to allow for rounding up on the 25% cap regarding multifamily units as well as permitting two detached ADUs to be built as a duplex. Board Member Ruiz seconded the motion. The motion passed 6-0. 8. MINUTES 8-A 2020-7698 Draft Meeting Minutes - December 9, 2019 Board Member Rothenberg moved approval of the minutes.
