This Project is a City-initiated request to amend various sections of Tustin City Code (TCC) Article 9 (Land Use). The proposed Code Amendment (CA 2025-0002) is a result of the Community Development Department's ongoing Code Streamlining and Improvement Program. The primary purpose of this proposed amendment is to clarify existing regulations, maintain consistency with recent State housing legislation, update Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) provisions, and implement programs of the 2021-2029 Housing Element. The amendments also clarify the City's prohibition of short-term rentals, consistent with the 2024-2025 Orange County Grand Jury findings and recommendations; and updates the "Minor Variance" provisions to clearly define the review and approval responsibilities of the Zoning Administrator. Collectively, these changes improve clarity, resolve outdated or inconsistent code sections, and ensure the TCC remains aligned with current State law and City policy. Staff will continue to evaluate land use-related codes on a regular basis and introduce amendments when appropriate.
