Happy Valley’s ADU permitting codes establish appropriate locations, site development standards, and permit requirements to allow for the provision of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) within the city. Such living space can aid in the housing and dependent care of family members, provide rental income to offset the costs of home-ownership, and add to the supply of affordable housing options available to the citizens of Happy Valley.
