Trustees approve ADU ordinance after brief public hearing; vote 4–1
Summary
The Green Mountain Falls Board amended municipal code to clarify accessory dwelling unit (ADU) rules, including a tiny‑home definition and requirement that ADUs be on foundations; the ordinance passed after a brief public hearing with one trustee opposed.
The Green Mountain Falls Board of Trustees closed a brief public hearing and voted to adopt an ordinance amending Chapter 12 of the municipal code governing accessory dwelling units (ADUs). The change adds a definition for "tiny home" while reinforcing that ADUs must be placed on a permanent foundation.
After the hearing the board debated minor clarifications and moved for approval. The ordinance was adopted by a 4–1 vote; one trustee objected during the roll call. "I oppose," the opposing trustee stated during the vote. The board did not identify any further amendments in the meeting packet; staff recorded the ordinance as 'Town of Green Mountain Falls ordinance number 2024‑3' amending ADU provisions.
