JB13 Use of ADUs  Must be owner-occupied Parking  One parking space per bedroom for non- exempt ADUs 21

Slide 21 JB13 Be prepared to answer the question as to why we are recommending owner occupancy. We can discuss if need be. The reason were are banning STR use is pretty obvious. Jonathan Borrego, 5/30/2017

JB16 Setbacks  Per existing zone designation Design Standards  Design compatibility with main dwelling unit and surrounding neighborhood  Minimize privacy impacts onto adjacent properties 23

Slide 25 JB11 We need to include a slide or slides that highlights our recommendations to date. The slides should cover the main elements of the ordinance and what we are recommending.
