Property owners interested in constructing ADUs can now save time and money on their projects with the City’s Pre-Approved Accessory Dwelling Unit Program (PAADU). These beautiful designs provide owners the ability to better understand costs associated with construction, a preview of what to expect and ease of design planning. To preview pre-approved ADU designs, please visit the PAADU webpage.
PAADU plans and permit applications may be approved Over-The-Counter (OTC) at the Permit Center with the assistance from the Planning and Building & Safety Bureaus. Upon approval, a building permit can be issued the same day. For more information about the permitting process, or to schedule an appointment and apply for an ADU construction permit, please visit the Permit Center webpage.
