A special meeting of the Danbury Planning Commission is being held this afternoon.  The City is looking to opt out of a state requirement for the allowance of accessory apartments as of right on each lot that contains a single-family dwelling.  Starting this year, accessory apartments, which are also known as garage apartments, in-law suites or granny pods, will be legal to build and rent to family or other tenants in residential and single-family areas. There is an opt-out provision for municipalities. The Zoning Commission public hearing on the matter is set for March 8th.  The Planning Commission will discuss the petition at a 3pm virtual special meeting.
