The ordinance amends multiple sections of the Phoenix Zoning Code to align with state legislation requiring the allowance of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in single-family residential lots. The changes permit up to two ADUs per lot, with flexible configurations and provisions for setbacks, design standards, lot coverage, and use limitations. The revisions aim to increase housing options citywide while ensuring compatibility with existing residential neighborhoods.
This zoning amendment supports increased housing options by allowing accessory dwelling units on single-family lots, aligning local regulations with state requirements and addressing housing affordability and availability concerns throughout Phoenix.
