What this form is
California Senate Bill 9 lets qualifying single-family lots add a second unit without a full discretionary review. Daly City's SB 9 Two-Unit Project Application walks the applicant through the state's eligibility criteria and requires the property owner's signature, which the form itself marks as notarization required before the Planning Division will accept the submission.
Who needs it
Daly City property owners applying to add a second primary dwelling unit or build up to two units on a vacant single-family lot under SB 9.
Why it needs a notary
The application's signature line reads 'Property Owner Signature (notarization required),' so the owner's signature must be notarized before submission.
