Salt Lake City is back with a new take on regulating accessory dwellings, with changes that would bar the smaller, secondary homes from being used as brief Airbnb-type rentals but permit the buildings anywhere in the city, with conditions in neighborhoods of predominantly single-family homes.
The City Council heard an outline of the revised proposal Tuesday and will have more discussion at its May 1 meeting. Ahead of eventual adoption, the city plans to seek more public input on the plan than it has previously, including through an informational website, updates by email and social media, citywide mailings, and direct outreach to neighborhood councils and community organizations.
