Letter: Clear ADU Rules Will Add Homes to Our Community in a Way That Works for Everyone

The following letter was sent to the Amherst Planning Board and the Town Council’s Community Resources Committee on Nov. 9, 2026. As a District 4 resident, I support accessory dwelling units. A small apartment can help an older parent stay close to family, give an adult child a place to live, or bring in rental income that helps a homeowner stay in Amherst. Thank you for working to clarify the bylaw. I’m asking you to draw a clear line on what counts toward the size limit and to ask Beacon Hill for the flexibility to address Amherst’s housing pressures.
