Zoning Text Amendment – Section 8.1 Accessory Dwelling Units

Proposed bylaw changes to Section 8.1 align Canton's ADU (in-law apartment) rules with the 2024 state Affordable Homes Act, potentially expanding where and how ADUs are allowed.
Why this matters: ADU rules affect what homeowners can build on their own lots.
