Idaho S1353 amends housing regulations to allow twin homes and duplexes in areas zoned for single-family dwellings.
Idaho S1353 amends existing law to establish provisions regarding the regulation of twin homes and duplexes. The bill mandates that cities with populations over 5,000 must permit the development of twin homes and duplexes in residential zones where single-family dwellings are allowed. It prohibits cities from imposing minimum lot size requirements that would effectively prohibit these housing types, requiring more than one off-street parking space per dwelling unit, or imposing higher impact or utility connection fees on twin homes or duplexes compared to single-family dwellings.
