The Denver City Council has passed an ordinance amending the Denver Zoning Code to allow more flexibility in building Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in response to housing shortages and displacement issues. The changes are tailored to different neighborhood contexts, making it easier and more cost-efficient to construct ADUs in areas with varying lot sizes and densities. While some concerns remain about the owner occupancy rule and potential misuse of ADUs as short-term rentals, the amendment is expected to make ADU construction easier, benefiting homeowners, particularly those in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods.
