Read via reader proxy (https://r.jina.ai/) since direct site is a JS shell. Also confirmed a live plan-set PDF fetches directly, corroborating the catalog is real and downloadable. Adversarially re-verified 2026-08-06 by an independent re-fetch agent: Correct URL is cityofsoledad.gov/services/community_economic_development/building_safety/accessory_dwelling_unit.php. Confirms 4 named plan sets -- 1A (1bd/1ba, 495sf), 1B (1bd/1ba, 553sf), 2A (2bd/2ba, 749sf), 2B (2bd/1ba, 746sf) -- all four with downloadable PDF plan documents linked on the page (developed with City of Salinas and Design Path Studio), exceeding the prior claim of only one PDF verified live.

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 Soledad’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).
