This would be a decent way for people to help out adult children who don't have the money to get a place of their own, and elderly parents who need care. And could actually help alleviate the local housing shortage.
Making space for aging family members or growing families seems like a very community-strengthening thing.
Our community should be encouraged to help take care of our aging family, not deal with outdated rules. Please consider updating this rule.
ADU's could be such a boon to a community. Families could house a senior with privacy for all, provide a small independent place for a recent college graduate who has high student loan debt. A home for a live in nanny. We need to promote all the "outside the box" ideas . Better living for all.
My mom is 88-yrs old and has been in her house in NB 61 years. Would love to be able to add an ADU to the backyard for one of us to live in so she could stay.
ADU's are being approved all over the US. This would be a wonderful addition to the city of New Brighton.
I’d love this for my aging father some day.

We need units such as these so people would be more able to age in place WITH family members vs the loneliness and expense of moving to senior "living".
