Proposal would allow tiny-home parks in R‑4 with design rules

Apr 30, 2026

The draft zoning amendments add 'tiny home parks' as an allowable use in R‑4 and attach design guidelines (Section 18.100.290). The hearing officer read the definitions and guidelines; a public commenter urged oversight of such parks.

The full story

The proposed text would permit tiny-home parks in R‑4 residential districts and add a new Section 18.100.290 laying out park design and placement requirements. The hearing packet defines a "tiny home" as a permanently installed small dwelling under 400 square feet and distinguishes 'tiny homes on wheels' (mobile units under 400 sq. ft.) as not allowable as primary homes and instead required to park in RV parks.
