Accessory Dwelling Unit Separate Ownership
At a glance
Based on auto-generated captions; names and details may be misheard.
- What: a concept article allowing a protected-use accessory dwelling unit to be owned separately (condominium form) if it carries a year-round deed restriction.
- Where it stands: on 2026-10-19 the board called it a no-brainer; no vote.
- Next: wording depends on final state accessory dwelling regulations, not expected before December.
Discussion
- Megan said Housing Nantucket asked for this; pending state regulations allow it when municipal funding is involved, but the draft does not define municipal funding.
- The deed restriction would be municipally held and monitored, and would bar short-term rental.
- Member Borgerson asked about family-only use; staff said that is not what this article covers.
