Have you ever wished you could connect directly with your local Planning & Building Department in a low-pressure, friendly environment just to ask some of your most burning accessory dwelling unit questions?
Well, we are making it possible for homeowners across Napa and Sonoma counties to do just that, with our brand new ADU webinar series which just launched with an engaging live webinar in collaboration with the terrific folks at the City of Calistoga’s Planning & Building Division.
If you missed the webinar, you’ve come to the right place — we have it available right here on-demand for you to watch whenever it’s convenient for you! Check out a brief index of content below if you’d like to skip to the parts that are most relevant to your ADU questions.
Prior to the webinar, Calistoga’s Planning & Building Director, Zach Tusinger, shared, “We are glad to be able to bring ADU support and resources to homeowners and property owners in the City of Calistoga and we are here to help you every step of the way.” And during the webinar, Building Official Brad Cannon provided tons of details about the local rules that govern building of accessory dwelling units in Calistoga, with an emphasis on the city’s pro-ADU stance.

We have another live ADU webinar coming up in partnership with the City of Napa on Thursday, August 27 at 6:00 pm and there will be more webinars coming soon with the planning and building folks at multiple Sonoma County cities and the county as well. All webinars will be recorded and posted on our website afterwards to be viewed by homeowners at your convenience on-demand.
The content in our ADU webinars is simply information, and is not legal advice regarding your specific ADU project. Keep in mind that local ADU rules change over time, and every homeowner’s ADU project and parcel is unique so always make sure to consult directly with your local city or county before diving into your ADU project.
