Assembly bill 68, Assembly Bill 881, and Senate Bill 13.In senate bill 13, it specifically states the following:(i) The accessory dwelling unit may be rented separate from the primary residence, but may not be sold or otherwise conveyed separate from the primary residence.I have not seen anywhere in this bill or the AB bills where it prohibits or allows prohibition of short term rentals.

The kitchen has become a place to showcase counters, cabinets, islands, appliances, fancy accessories like pulldown shelves, cabinet handles, lighting, etc.

The San Francisco Bay Area housing shortage has prompted a lot of homeowners and investors to add Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) to their properties.

Here is text taken from the HOUSABLE website for Oakland:Utility ConnectionsCategory One: No new or separate utility connection shall be required.Category Two: A new or separate utility connection may be required, but the connection fee or capacity charge shall be proportionate to the burden of ADU on the water or sewer system.Here are definitions of the ADU categories from the City of Oakland website:CATEGORY ONE ADU: Involves either conversion of space within an existing Single-Family Dwelling, or conversion or rebuild of an existing accessory structure; includes no expansion of the existing building envelope other than up to 150 sq. ft. for purposes of accommodating ADU access and egress only.CATEGORY TWO ADU: Involves construction of a new detached or attached structure, including an exterior addition to an existing structure to accommodate the ADU, in conjunction with a proposed or existing Single-Family dwelling.It seems that Oakland is making things confusing with the language they are using, but I still believe that my original interpretation is correct based on the State Assembly Bill. 

how can you have an accessory dwelling unit at 4+ units?

Some properties, especially those with Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), provide opportunity to break even or cashflow with lower down payments.Out of state (as well as Upstate NY) investing is appealing when taking this all into consideration.

My team an I hauled over 12 tons of items from the house, did a minor renovation, and converted the workshop into an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).

@Mack Bailey what do you mean by Adu, accessory dwelling unit?
