Brews and ADUs: A Primer on SB9 (New duplex and lot split law!)

[Boris Suchkov]

Senate Bill 9, which went into effect on January 1, 2022, has been called the "death knell of exclusive single family zoning" across the state because it authorizes a duplex on any single family lot as well as allows the splitting of lots (potentially allowing 4 units on what was a parcel with a single family home!) How much truth is in that, and how does an SB9 duplex compare to a home with an ADU?

At this month's Brews and ADUs, Maxable Space's LA senior designer Lyle Boatman will help demystify SB9 by discussing:

- What zoning restrictions are waived in ADU law that are not waived in SB9
- Why you don't want to be the first one in your plat map to do a lot split
- What geographic areas are excluded from SB9
- Other benefits and pitfalls of the new state law
