section to allow accessory apartments, including kitchens, within
single-family properties for the purpose of meeting the special housing
needs of grandparents, parents, brothers and sisters, children and

uses. A special permit issued by the Zoning Board of Appeals shall
authorize such use.
B. Owner occupancy required. The owners of the single-family
lot upon which the accessory apartment is located shall occupy at
least one of the dwelling units on the premises. The special permit
shall be issued to the owner of the property. Should there be a change
in ownership or change in residence of the owner, the special permit
and the certificate of occupancy for the accessory apartment shall
become null and void.
C. Apartment size. The maximum livable floor area for
an accessory apartment shall not exceed the greater of either 700
square feet or 33% of the livable floor area of the existing primary
dwelling. In the case of new construction, the aforementioned will
apply to the planned primary dwelling. Livable floor area is defined
under this chapter.
