One of the more controversial sections of the UDO is section 2.4 about other
housing options. The proposed regulations will give property owners the
option to create either an apartment unit within or a backyard cottage
behind a detached house (single-family dwelling unit). The current
regulations permit an apartment unit only and the primary living area must
be owner-occupied. Owner-occupancy is not required in the proposed
regulations. A recent court case ruled that the owner-occupancy requirement
is discriminatory.
