➡️ Accessory Dwelling Units: Also known as ADUs, guest houses, or casitas. Attached or detached buildings designed for occupancy on the same lot or parcel as a single-family dwelling of greater square footage. These buildings must include their own sleeping and sanitation facilities and may have kitchen facilities.
➡️ Single-Family Units: Buildings designed for occupancy by one (1) family.
➡️ Two-Family (Duplex) Units (Beginning 2027): Buildings designed for occupancy by two (2) families.
➡️ Three-Family (Triplex) Units (Beginning 2027): Buildings designed for occupancy by three (3) families.
