What about an ADU in your backyard? What about tearing down your house and build a triplex?
Or has your peninsula achieved the platonic ideal of density as it is now? If so, you must be very lucky to live in such a place.
Do you think zoning rules like this - that Washington state is currently trying to change - exist for valid reasons? I really don't see a good reason, other than `NIMBY-ISM`.
In Washington, certain cities put restrictions on SRO units. The state is passing legislation to make that easier. [1][2]
These are just cities I've lived in. I would imagine other cities are facing similar zoning questions.
Some of us think that more housing is a good thing, and laws preventing units like ADUs or SROs are prima facie misguided.
