What’s posted
The City's long-running Permit-Ready ADU (PRADU) Program posts a downloadable Permit-Ready ADU Catalog (PDF) with two 1-bedroom/1-bath models and one 2-bedroom/1-bath model (multiple roofline/exterior/layout variations), pre-approved by the Building Division and free of charge.
Gap from a fully compliant program: Under the separate AB 1332 vendor track, the City states no outside vendor has yet submitted plans for preapproval, so that specific list is empty — but the City's own PRADU catalog satisfies the posting requirement.
Sources: https://www.citrusheights.net/1108/Permit-Ready-ADU-Program, https://www.citrusheights.net/1374/ADU-Preapproved-Plans-AB-1332, https://citrusheights.net/DocumentCenter/View/16396/PRADUCatalog, https://www.citrusheights.net/1379/Preapproved-Vendor-ADU-List
Fetched both pages directly. The Permit-Ready ADU Program page links a real catalog PDF (/DocumentCenter/View/16396/PRADUCatalog). The separate AB-1332 vendor page explicitly says 'the City does not have any vendors who have submitted plans for preapproval' — that vendor list is empty, but it is additive to, not a replacement of, the existing posted PRADU catalog. Adversarially re-verified 2026-08-06 by an independent re-fetch agent: The Permit-Ready ADU Program page (1108) links a downloadable Permit-Ready ADU Catalog PDF (DocumentCenter/View/16396/PRADUCatalog) describing 3 models (two 1bd/1ba + one 2bd/1ba) plus a homeowner guide booklet, satisfying 'rendering catalog' on the agency's own site. The second URL (1374, AB-1332 vendor-preapproval page) is a separate mechanism that is currently empty ('no vendors have submitted plans for preapproval') and should not be counted as evidence of the 3 plans, though it's a real page on the same domain.
Any other agency can adopt these plans
Cal. Gov. Code § 65852.27, added by Stats. 2023, ch. 759, amended by Stats. 2024, ch. 7 (SB 477) (§ 65852.27(a)(5)) lets any California local agency admit into its own program plans “A local agency may also admit the following accessory dwelling unit plans into the program: (A) Plans that have been developed and preapproved by the local agency. (B) Plans that have been preapproved by other agencies within the state.” A city or county without a preapproval program of its own can post City of Citrus Heights’s plans as part of its own program instead of designing new ones — see the full statewide catalog for more options.
We build and maintain the program page, the plan library and the required third-party submission path for agencies that want to stand this up: $1,950 setup + $3,600/year (year one all-in $5,550).
