WHAT IS AN ACCESSORY DWELLING UNIT OR ADU?

What is an ADU?
According to The City of Colorado Springs, "Accessory Dwelling Units are secondary living areas on a residential lot or within the main home. ADUs are often referred to as ancillary apartments, mother-in-law suites or cottages, granny flats, or guesthouses. These residential units are smaller than the main home and include a sleeping area, sanitary facilities, and gas/electrical facilities for cooking. Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) can come in a number of forms, such as:
- Above a detached garage
- A separate structure in the backyard
- Attached to the main home
- A converted basement or attic."
