Second Unit and Guesthouse Ordinance. Future second unit or guesthouse requests will be
subject to the development requirements of the amended ordinances. A fee established by the
Division of Finance and adopted by the City Council on June 24, 2003, is anticipated to cover the
staff time necessary for the processing of a typical Administrative Permit. The proposed
amendments to the UDC will result in no fiscal impact to the City's budget.
