Moving the Needle on ADU Policy and Production
ADUs can help us take advantage of existing infrastructure and developed land in order to build momentum in the production of resilient housing stock. Join us as we explore exciting developments in ADU and density policies & incentives, review a cross section of ADU residents and property features, and look at two ways to rapidly deploy ADUs. The session will also demonstrate how Accessory Dwellings are a ready mechanism for rapidly increasing housing with manageable impact to infrastructures and the collective carbon footprint.
