“If I’m an advocate for anything, it’s to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river.

Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) are a trending topic in California, particularly due to the state’s recognition of the housing shortage. Consequently, state laws regulating ADUs have been progressively relaxed, accompanied by increased pressure on local municipalities to simplify the building process. This has led to what is known as the ‘State Mandate,’ resulting in frequent revisions of local ordinances.
