Zoning & Land Use
RU-5 (Oakland)
State Housing Pathways Screen (ADU & SB 9)
- ADU or junior ADULikely eligible
Zoned RU-5 (multifamily residential): state law allows ADUs where homes are allowed. We read RU-5 from the zoning code's name; we haven't checked it against Oakland's code text. On a multifamily lot the state allowance is different: ADUs in non-living space of the building, plus up to eight detached ADUs. The assessor lists the lot as vacant: an ADU needs an existing or proposed main home.
- SB 9: two homes on the lotUnlikely
Zoned RU-5 (multifamily residential), not a single-family residential zone. We read RU-5 from the zoning code's name; we haven't checked it against Oakland's code text.
- SB 9: split into two lotsUnlikely
Zoned RU-5 (multifamily residential), not a single-family residential zone. We read RU-5 from the zoning code's name; we haven't checked it against Oakland's code text.
