Accessory dwelling units. Establishes authority and requirements for localities in the development and use of accessory dwelling units (ADUs). An ADU is defined in the bill as an independent dwelling unit on a single-family dwelling (SFD) lot with its own living, bathroom, and kitchen space. An ADU may be within or attached to an SFD or in a detached structure on a lot containing an SFD. An ADU may include, but is not limited to, basements, attics, flats, guest houses, cottages, and converted structures such as garages and sheds. The bill specifies that an ADU is not permitted in cases where it would violate historic preservation rules, deed restrictions, or property owners' association rules.
