State code was amended, changing standards required for these structures. The changes
to the state code imposed limitations on what municipalities can require in terms of
design elements. As a result, City code needs to be updated to match these regulations.
The Planning Division is proposing a text amendment to update standards related to
these structures, which include garages, entrance landings, and building foundations. The
amendment focuses on aligning the standards with City goals and addressing state law.
The proposed text amendments apply Citywide. Petition No.: PLNPCM2023-00952.
