San Diego may roll back or eliminate a controversial city incentive that allows the owner of a single-family lot to build dozens of backyard apartments on it.

City council members unanimously directed city planners to bring forward legislation that could kill the incentive.

The incentive’s most controversial element is that it lets property owners potentially build an unlimited number of bonus backyard apartments, which the city formally calls “accessory dwelling units,” or ADUs.

It’s widely believed to be the most aggressive ADU incentive in California, and it goes far beyond what state law requires cities to allow regarding ADUs.

Shown is a 17-unit ADU backyard apartment project being built on Almayo Ave., a small, single family resident cul-de-sac in Clairemont.
