https://www.courier-journal.co... of the things here seem pretty significant! I've talked about this quite a bit on See You at Noon. Look to Oregon to see how big this is! ►Allow property owners to build an accessory dwelling unit, including an accessory apartment, without getting a conditional-use permit.
►Permit duplexes outright on properties that are zoned multi-family to increase housing options and affordability. Currently, density restrictions can prevent duplexes from being built.
►Eliminate floor area ratio regulations, which determine what size a building can be on its lot.
►Increase zones where multiplex dwellings, such as triplexes and fourplexes, are permitted.
►Identify obstacles to tiny home development and create amendments to address those issues.
►Identify areas appropriate for higher density residential use, where more units can be built per acre, such as areas within walking distance of public transport.►Review overall organization of land development code to improve function and usability.
