flag Chicago approves ADU rules allowing small home rentals, balancing housing growth with neighborhood input.

flag A compromise on Chicago’s accessory dwelling unit (ADU) ordinance allows homeowners to build and rent small secondary homes, with citywide expansion in multi-unit zones and local aldermanic review in single-family areas. flag The plan, which includes a union-backed requirement for apprenticeship program workers, aims to address the city’s housing shortage while preserving neighborhood character. flag Though it falls short of Mayor Brandon Johnson’s original “by right” vision, the measure advances housing supply with local control, and a City Council vote is expected.
