Town of Hillsborough Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Survey Closes Next Friday, April 29
The Town of Hillsborough is in the process of updating its Housing Element, a chapter of the General Plan that outlines the plans and policies the community has in place to ensure we comply with state statutes.
A key tool in meeting Hillsborough’s RHNA will likely be Accessory Dwelling Units and Junior Accessory Dwelling Units. Also referred to as mother-in-law suites, granny flats, second units, and accessory apartments, these small units on single-family lots can help to increase housing options in the community with minimal impact on Hillsborough’s character. |

Residents 50 and over and those who are immunocompromised are now eligible for a second COVID-19 booster, four months after their first booster.
The best option for a second booster is a primary health care provider or a pharmacy. Eligible residents can also book an appointment through the state’s MyTurn.
County Health’s community clinics will provide boosters for walk-ins now but recommend booking an appointment after April 6 to avoid long waits. |
