Implementing Tahoe’s Housing Solutions Webinar - ADUs

Watch this recording of TRPA and local partners discussing how proposed basin-wide ADU changes could help impact housing affordability and availability.
Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs), also known as mother-in-law apartments or secondary residences, were a common housing type in neighborhoods built between the 1920s and the 1950s. Generally zoned out by modern codes, ADUs are increasingly being looked to as a key element in addressing housing needs, and recent legislation in California requires cities and counties across the state to allow them. ADUs can provide additional housing opportunities on the smaller end of the size scale, and they can allow homeowners the flexibility to share independent living areas with family members and others.
