 Survey on Accessory Living Units (ALUs)
Potential updates to the county’s zoning regulations for accessory living units (ALUs) are under consideration, and the community is invited to weigh-in through an online survey. ALUs are a secondary dwelling area of a single-family detached residence, often known as in-law suites, basement apartments, or guest houses. The Zoning Ordinance contains requirements for ALUs, which include limitations to size, occupancy, entrances, parking and more. Some of these requirements could be updated through an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance. The community survey offers county residents an opportunity to submit feedback on potential changes for ALU regulations, which county staff will use alongside their analysis to determine next steps. The survey will be open through February 28.
