Searched 'City of Marina preapproved ADU plans' (found earlier RFP for developing the plans, dated May 2023) then fetched the agency's current ADU page directly, which confirms 3 plan sets are now live and downloadable, each in 3 styles (~9 total renderings of 3 unit types). plansCount reported as 3 distinct plan sets per the schema's 'distinct posted plans' framing; also attempted to fetch the linked ADU/JADU Submittal Guidelines PDF for corroboration but it returned unreadable/corrupted binary content. Adversarially re-verified 2026-08-06 by an independent re-fetch agent: Page lists 3 downloadable plan sets (Studio, 1-Bedroom, 2-Bedroom), each offered in 3 architectural styles, hosted via the city's DocumentCenter portal on cityofmarina.org.

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 Marina’s plans as part of its own program instead of designing new ones — see the full statewide catalog for more options.
