Of course they did! And if we had a flood plain they'd recommend building there, too. Tally Ho, Woodside Planning Commission! You are the lamest Woodside has ever had.

Do the newly allowable granny units come on walkers so they can roll with the jolts?

Well, I wonder how much difference it makes if you are 50 feet away vs. 100 feet away from the fault?
Aren't most of them a mile underground and shake for 30+ miles or more?
The San Andreas fault has a 9% probabilty of a 6.7 or greater in the next 20-30 years. Hayward fault is more likely, but anything could happen.

Virtually, no difference.
