Proposal would allow ADUs in R‑1 and raise R‑1 lot coverage to 40% in Huachuca City

Apr 30, 2026

The zoning package proposes an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) section for R‑1 lots and increases the maximum lot coverage from 30% to 40% to accommodate ADUs and accessory structures. A local business owner supported the change at the hearing but noted the ADU language appears not to require separate meters or alley access.

The full story

The proposed zoning amendments add a new section for Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) in R‑1 residential districts and increase the maximum lot coverage in R‑1 from 30% to 40%. The packet describes an ADU as a self-contained living unit on the same lot as a single-family dwelling with its own sleeping, sanitation and kitchen facilities.
