Centerville

Confirm detached with the city

Internal accessory dwellings are a permitted use under state law. Public-facing detached standards are thin. We read the current Centerville ordinance with you before schematic design.

Internal ADU

Permitted in most residential zones under House Bill 82, with local lot, parking, and occupancy rules.

Detached ADU

Confirm with Centerville planning. From October 1, 2026, lots of 11,000 sf or larger with a house must be able to take a detached ADU as a permitted use.

Lot

Internal units may be limited to lots of 6,000 sf or larger. Detached: confirm; 11,000 sf is the statewide floor from October 1, 2026.

Size

Per ordinance. The ADU cannot exceed the primary dwelling under the 2026 state floor.

Parking

Cities may require one additional stall. The 2026 cap is one stall under 650 sf, two at 650 sf and above.

Owner occupancy

Owner occupancy is typical in Davis County. Confirm.

Rental

Long-term occupancy is the usual rule. Confirm short-term rental — most Davis cities prohibit it.

Design

Setbacks, height, and coverage remain local. Entry is typically side or rear.
