POSTPONED - ADU 101 | A Workshop for Citizen Developers

Out of concern for the health and wellbeing of our participants and the larger community, O-POP has decided to postpone this event.

We are excited to share a lot of great information with you and plan to look to some dates in May. In the meantime, if you are interested in giving input on the City's ADU codes, check out this website. Share your thoughts at housingoptions@ci.olympia.wa.us.

We’re sorry for the inconvenience, but ask for your continued support and understanding. Stay healthy, everyone!


Join O-POP for a free half-day workshop outlining the process of building an accessory dwelling unit (ADU). Learn about:

>> permitting and regulations (including Lacey, Olympia, and Tumwater)
>> design and construction
>> financing and property management

Local experts will offer practical information to help you lay the foundations for your own project. This event is free, but seats are limited and registration is required. Register at Eventbrite.

Thanks to our sponsors—OlyFed, the South Sound Section (Washington Chapter of the American Planning Association), and Artisans Group—for their support.
