Disclaimer: This tool is an early screening estimate only. Final feasibility depends on zoning, code, utilities, deed restrictions, easements, trees, site constraints, and City review. By definition, a dwelling unit must contain habitable space, a full bathroom, and a kitchen sink/dishwasher outside the bathroom. Each new unit requires a unique address. It is the applicant's responsibility to verify property-specific information such as deed restrictions or covenants.
