Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) have become a growing trend in urban planning and housing policies globally. These units, also known as granny flats or laneway houses, are secondary housing structures built on residential properties. The rise in ADU popularity stems from the need for affordable housing solutions, as well as the desire for multigenerational living arrangements and supplemental rental income.
Petitions surrounding ADUs focus on advocating for zoning and regulatory changes to promote their construction, addressing issues like affordability, sustainability, and community integration. One petition urges local governments to streamline the permitting process for ADUs to increase housing supply and affordability. Another petition calls for incentives and funding to encourage homeowners to build ADUs, highlighting the positive impact on housing diversity and affordability.
