Existing law requires the ordinance to designate areas within the jurisdiction of the local agency where these units may be permitted, impose specified standards on these units, provide that accessory dwelling units do not exceed allowable density and are a residential use, as specified, and require these units to comply with specified conditions, including a requirement that the unit is not intended for sale separate from the primary residence and may be rented. Existing law establishes the maximum standards that local agencies are required to use to evaluate a proposed accessory dwelling unit on a lot zoned for residential use that contains an existing single-family dwelling.
