ADU Ordinance Update (Ordinance No. 26-O-2940)

The City of Beverly Hills is implementing Ordinance No. 26-O-2940 to update and amend regulations governing Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs). This initiative ensures local compliance with California state law requirements, specifically Government Code sections 66310 through 66342, as well as sections 65852.1 and 65852.2. The scope of these amendments applies citywide across all single-family and multi-family residential zones within the city. The project is designated as exempt under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), citing California Code of Regulations 15282(h) and Public Resources Code section 21080.17 as the basis for the exemption. Administrative oversight for this update is managed by the City of Beverly Hills, with Deborah Hong serving as the Associate Planner and primary point of contact. The forecast for this action was posted on August 17, 2026, under NAICS code 541620.
