A staff member, facilitator for the Ellensburg Affordable Housing Committee, opened a public workshop on accessory dwelling units (ADUs), saying, "This is super exciting. It's really great to see everybody." The facilitator told attendees the session would cover updated regulations and basic considerations for ADUs and would include presentations and one-on-one time with professionals and city and county officials.
The facilitator said the meeting would include presentations on types of ADUs, site planning and visual examples. "We're gonna have some presenters that are gonna walk through types of ADUs, permitting and regulations, block density, water, things like that," the staff member said. The facilitator added that presentations would be kept brief to allow time for attendees to consult with professionals at the event.
The facilitator identified two presenters by first name: Molly and Skyler, who were scheduled to discuss types of ADUs, planning a site or internal space, and visual examples. The facilitator said the goal was for attendees to have an opportunity to ask questions of the professionals and of city and county officials present.
No formal decisions or votes were recorded in the portion of the meeting in the transcript. The session moved from introductory remarks into the planned presentations and small-group exchanges with professionals and officials.
