The Hayward Fault crosses the city and generally runs within a few hundred feet of Mission Boulevard; the General Plan treats sites in a fault zone as sitting on an active trace until a geotechnical investigation shows otherwise and requires buildings to be set back at least 50 feet from active faults unless a licensed geotechnical engineer recommends otherwise.
The General Plan prohibits buildings on unstable slopes steeper than 25 percent, requires a geologic investigation for new construction in the Landslide Zone, and notes that foothill neighborhoods border hillsides and open space prone to wildfires.
All ADU and JADU permits must be submitted through the Hayward e-Permit Portal, and homeowners may use a pre-approved plan set from the City's ADU Plans Gallery.
