Rathdrum, Idaho allows more ADUs in residential areas

IdahoIn a recent article, the Coeur d’Alene Press reported that the City of Rathdrum, Idaho is updating its codes to allow for the construction of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in more residential areas. The move comes as the city is seeing an increase in homeowners with college-aged or elderly family members staying or moving back home, leading to a demand for more affordable housing options.

ADUs in Residential Areas
