ADU's in DFW

Is anyone familiar with a city near Dallas that allows ADU's to be built/ rented out? From my understanding, Dallas is very strict on this though many older neighborhoods have existing ADU's that I assume were in place before regulations came along.

Appreciate the clarification Jay!! I saw this as well on the City of Dallas site.. If I am reading this correctly, a homeowner can either request an ADU Overlay involving other members of the neighborhood and needing their approval too or filing an application to the city of Dallas correct? Anyone know the likelihood of them approving something like a new ADU and renting it out? Thanks as always BP community!


yes, I know the Belmont addition in East Dallas does allow but re-reading there is more gate keeping then I remember. I might be easier to buy a property with a ADU already in place.
