INTRODUCED BY COUNCIL

AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE,
TITLE 16, CHAPTERS 5 AND 6, REGARDING ALTERNATIVE DWELLING
UNITS, INCLUDING A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM, ALL WITIDN THE
CITY OF ENGLEWOOD, COLORADO.
WHEREAS, Alternative Dwelling Units (ADU's) were primarily built in Englewood during
the 1920's, 1930's and 1940's, with fewer ADU's built after the 1950's due to expanded development
of suburban areas within the City;
WHEREAS, More than 180 ADU's currently exist within the City of Englewood;
WHEREAS, ADU's have experienced a resurgence in popularity in the Denver metropolitan
area in recent years in response to a tight and increasingly expensive housing market;
WHEREAS, ADU's are an economical and practical housing option for young families,
couples, "empty nesters", singles, guests, and older adults who need to live close to their children while
maintaining some autonomy;
WHEREAS, ADUs increase housing stock within the City which adds value to established
neighborhoods, increase the value of properties upon which an ADU is located, increase housing
options within the City, and increase infill development opportunities without requiring additional
infrastructure costs;
WHEREAS, ADU's provide housing to allow for the addition of new residents who then
support local businesses, provide young families and singles an introductory living experience to the
overall community, and provide incentive for established residents to remain within the community
when they are ready to upgrade their property or move to a larger residence;
WHEREAS, The Planning and Zoning Commission studied the issues and impacts of ADU's
from 2015 through 2017 by holding study sessions to discuss where ADU' s should be allowed, drafting
regulations governing the use and construction of ADU's, and gathering citizen input concerning
ADU's;
WHEREAS, The Planning and Zoning Commission developed recommendations to allow
ADU's to be permitted in specifically identified zoning districts, and developed regulations governing
ADU's to protect property values and ensure ADU's were not being used for speculative purposes; and
WHEREAS, On August 22, 2017, the Planning and Zoning Commission held a public hearing
regarding proposed changes to the Unified Development Code relating to ADU's within the City, and
following the public hearing voted to recommend those code changes to the City Council.
