[Massplanners] ADU Units

[Harry LaCortiglia]

Is it Friday already?

There is a mention in the final regs (CMR 71.03 (2) (d)) under 
/Prohibited Regulations,/ that Protected Use ADU's can't count in 
density calculations.

/(d) Unit Caps & Density. Any limit, quota or other restriction on the 
number of Protected
Use ADUs that may be permitted, constructed, or leased within a 
Municipality or Zoning
District. *Protected Use ADUs shall not be counted in any density 
calculations.*/

So, do ADU's only count when one is _not_ using the number for a density 
calculation? ("Density Calculations" is not defined in 71.02...)

Perhaps EOHLC will someday clarify... I'm still wondering if every condo 
in a multi condo development can have their very own ADU.
