ADUs: What is an Accessory Dwelling Unit and Where Can We Build Them?

This presentation will walk us through a new members-only resource: Our Massachusetts ADU table. This table is a listing of every town and city ordinance on ADUs. We'll cover:

  • What is an accessory dwelling unit?
  • Which towns allow some kind of ADU?
  • Which towns require owner occupy vs. allow investment?
  • Do I need a special permit or zoning variance?

Attendees will leave knowing about our ADU resource as a starting point for making investment decisions and helping us to create more rental housing.

Are you a city or town official who would like to share your perspective on ADUs? Contact us for how to appear at this event.
