Town planners are working to clarify and tweak Gilbert’s Land Development Code regulating secondary dwelling units and accessory structures built on single-family residential properties.
Planning Manager Eva Cutro said last week that the code contains multiple terms that confuse both staff and the applicants.
“Recently there’s been a demand for guest homes, secondary dwelling units and larger accessory structures,” Cutro said at the Oct. 4 meeting.
“There’s been a recent trend in the town for large structures that are not primary structures, not guest quarters because they have no overnight bedrooms but they are larger than what we would typically consider an accessory structure.
