As the reproduction cost of housing has increased, consumers have made intensive use of existing dwellings. Conversions of the housing stock have regained prominence as a source of supply. This book introduces the accessory apartment and assesses its potential as an emerging resource for meeting local and national housing needs. Although accessory apartments help meet some of the nation's housing needs, they are not entirely without problems. Some of these are environmental problems, such as physical alterations that are out of character with the design and appearance of surrounding structures, while other problems are cultural and ideological. The accessory apartment in a single-family house deviates from the image of housing, family, and neighborhood that prevails in American culture. It symbolizes a change in the way the single-family house is used and the kinds of people who live in it. These changes clash with the traditional meanings attached to the categories of residential zoning. Martin Gellen evaluates and answers the following questions throughout the text: How do we live with accessory apartments? Control their number? Ensure their soundness?--and maintain neighborhood standards? He focuses on the physical planning problems of conversions and examines the zoning issues they raise. This includes a realistic appraisal of the purposes of density and occupancy controls in exclusive single-family districts. The author provides new methods for regulation of density and occupancy which permit more flexible use of single-family housing to meet the housing needs of a more diverse population. Whether in an aging suburb or new tract, the accessory apartment is a current challenge. This book provides a clear headed approach toward a popular trend in the ever changing housing industry.

Accessory apartments are an affordable housing option that meets the needs of many people, including singles, seniors and those with low or fixed incomes, and contributes to optimizing the use of existing housing stock and infrastructure. In order to improve housing affordability, several municipalities have enacted zoning changes that facilitate the provision of accessory apartments. Provincial, Territorial and Municipal building codes have different requirements for this form of housing, with the result that different regulations apply to accessory apartments in many Canadian municipalities. This research comprises a literature review and consolidation and organization of documents regulating accessory apartments in Canada, evaluates the levels of performance provided by the various building code health and safety requirements and compares them with objectives of the National Building Code, to enable building authorities to assess proposed amendments to building and fire codes. It compares the costs of complying with regulations in different jurisdictions for the construction of a typical basement accessory apartment. Specifically, this research: 1. Lists National Building Code (NBC) and National Fire Code (NFC) provisions governing houses containing one principle residence and one accessory apartment that are distinct from the requirements for a single dwelling. It includes requirements for fire separations, egress, windows, sound control, clearances, heating and ventilation, smoke detection, fire alarms and protected openings; 2. Identifies provincial, territorial and municipal building and fire code requirements that differ from those in the NBC and NFC; 3. Categorizes code requirements in tabular form, with references and exact wording; 4. Evaluates the relative level of performance of the various municipal building and fire code requirements for accessory apartments, compared with the NBC requirements, 5. Proposes means for achieving equivalent levels of performance; 6. Summarizes code requirements in plain English; and 7. Estimates the costs of complying with each code requirement for a typical 60m2 basement accessory apartment in existing and new construction.

"The purpose of this study was to examine the characteristics and attributes of the municipal regulations of the 498 municipalities in Canada that allow accessory apartments and to assess how likely these regulations are to enable or dissuade the creation of accessory apartments. Municipal bylaws commonly regulate the development of accessory apartments by means such as limiting the size of the suite, who or how many can live in the suite, locations either by building type or zoning designation and/or making approvals conditional or discretionary"--Introd., p.
