205 Pecan ADUs (Coastal Development Permit No. 26-006)
Huntington Beach
Description
Two detached ADUs (about 420 and 480 sq ft, two stories, 18 feet) proposed next to a 1932 triplex downtown. The Planning Commission denied it 4-2 over parking and coastal access concerns, but the council overturned that on appeal because state ADU law bars those requirements.
Impact summary
Adds two small rental units to an existing apartment site; modest change visible from the corner of Lake and Pecan.
