[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]People who live on a tiny lot are not the ones who are going to build ADU. It's the folks who live on an acre in Potomac who are more likely to build ADUs.[/quote]

No one on the 1 -2 acre lots is going to build an ADU and invite low income people to live in Potomac. Please stop smoking bee pollen. Retiree's in Potomac change their residency to Florida to avoid taxes or sell and move into expensive condos somewhere. Developers may build more THs there but they will be luxury TH for divorced wealthy people or young families seeking the Churchill cluster. None of them will be low income or even close to it.

Does it have to be for low income people?

In any case, I still don't think the "poorer" areas with tiny   lots have the room or money to build an ADU on those lots.[/quote]
PP here... From the article, it's not about renting to low income but more about inlaws, disabled adult children, etc.. living in close proximity to family.  Article doesn't say anything about it must be for low income people.[/quote]

A good percentage will be ADUs being rented to lower income people.  Simply because people will do it to pay less rent.  Which is the whole point, according to County leadership.

Also, in our neighborhood, most of the accessory apartments already in place are being illegally rented out for cash.  This will surely be the case with the new units as well.[/quote]
