The local program is responsible for ensuring that all employee housing accommodations meet <br /> the minimum State requirements established for use, maintenance, occupancy, and safety. <br /> Beginning in 2000, EHD granted all dairy facilities an exemption from the requirement to obtain an <br /> annual Permit to Operate employee housing. EHD records show that your facility was one of the <br /> facilities granted an exemption. <br /> However, as a result of a recent review of our local Employee Housing Program, HCD provided <br /> clarification that the exemption in State law is limited to detached, permanent single family dwellings <br /> only.' Dairy facilities with duplexes or triplexes are not eligible for exemption. EHD was directed to <br /> implement the annual Permit to Operate requirements for those dairy facilities with duplex or triplex <br /> employee housing accommodations. <br /> According to EHD records, your dairy facility has the following employee housing accommodations: <br /> Quantity Housing Type Year Built <br /> 1 Duplex 1985 <br /> 1 Single Family Dwelling 1920 <br /> 3 Single Family Dwelling Pre-1985 <br /> 2 Mobilehome Unit Pre-1985 <br /> 1 Mobilehome Unit 1997 <br /> 1 California Health and Safety Code,Sections 17030—17031. <br />
