Calabasas Planning Commission -6/18/2026

The City of Calabasas Planning Commission held a meeting on June 18, 2026, primarily focused on updating the city's accessory dwelling unit (ADU) ordinance to comply with recent and rapidly evolving California state housing laws. Staff presented extensive revisions to the ADU and junior ADU regulations, addressing state mandates such as minimum unit sizes, setback requirements, ministerial approval processes, and owner-occupancy rules. The commission discussed the practical implications of these changes on local housing density, parking, and quality of life, noting the challenges of balancing state compliance with community concerns. A motion was passed unanimously to recommend the updated ordinance, with a minor amendment to clarify sanitation facility language, for adoption by the City Council. The meeting also included brief updates on upcoming projects and scheduling, with no other procurement or contracting actions taken.
