Build More ADUs - An Rx to Increase Marin's Housing Supply*

such fees can be a disincentive to homeowners considering ADU development. The District agrees with this finding. The Marin Municipal Water District (MMWD) agrees that fees associated with the development of Accessory Dwelling Units may vary considerably across different jurisdictions within the County. One possible reason for variation is that each local agency faces a unique combination of operating costs, deferred maintenance and planned future improvements. Therefore, each independent agency must determine the most appropriate methodology for calculating fees to best fit their unique conditions. MMWD also agrees that fees can be a disincentive to homeowners considering ADU development. MMWD meter installation charges are intended to recover the associated labor, equipment and material costs for the work.
