ADU Regulations

Understanding the regulations and requirements surrounding ADUs is crucial before embarking on the construction process. ADU regulations may vary depending on your location and local zoning ordinances.
Here are some key factors to consider:
  • Zoning: Check your local zoning regulations to determine if ADUs are allowed in your area and the specific requirements, such as setbacks, maximum size, and height restrictions.
  • Permits: Obtain the necessary permits from your local building department before starting ADU construction. This ensures compliance with building codes and safety standards.
  • Parking: Some municipalities have parking requirements for ADUs. Familiarize yourself with the parking regulations in your area to ensure compliance.
  • Utilities: Consider the impact of your ADU on existing utility connections and determine if any modifications or upgrades are necessary.
  • Rental Regulations: If you plan to rent out your ADU, be aware of local rental regulations, including tenant screening, lease agreements, and rent control ordinances.
