City of Grand Junction - Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Workshop

The City of Grand Junction hosts free ADU workshops to educate property owners and developers about building accessory dwelling units (ADUs) — smaller, independent living spaces on the same lot as a single-family home. These workshops are part of the City’s broader housing strategy to increase affordable housing options and support ADU development in the community.

The workshops generally include:

• Overview of the City’s ADU Toolkit – step-by-step guidance on planning, permits, zoning, design, and construction for ADUs.
• Details about the Planning Process – how to submit a planning clearance application and navigate local regulations for ADU development.
• Information on the ADU Production Program – incentives available when developers commit to long-term rentals.
• Networking and Q&A – opportunities to learn from city staff, local builders, lenders, and building department representatives (noted specifically for the most recent 2025 workshop).
