rick gladstone, land use attorney in the city and have worked on a number of a.d.u.s.irst of all, thank you very much for working on this. the amendment is very necessary. i, too, believe that you should check with the city attorney to see if it's complaint to not allow a.d.u.s for single-family homes and the demolition concerns can be taken care of. second, i think it's important for the public to know why the amendment, which i support, is occurring that you can, in fact, do an a.d.u. even though there's been an eviction in the prior three years. as it is currently, there is an incentive for owners to evict people when they don't want to legalize a unit because the current law says that you cannot do a legalization of a unit if there's been an eviction during the prior year. so your legislation, quite properly, takes away that incentive for people to evict in order to get around the requirement that they legalize an illegal unit. i do share the concern that the building department is not as up to speed as planning on what it means to have no path to legalization. so
