The City of Irvine is reviewing Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) and Junior Accessory Dwelling Unit (JADU) applications per state statute. Please contact the Development Assistance Center via email at planning@cityofirvine.org or by phone at 949-724-6308 with any additional questions. A completed Residential Accessory Dwelling Unit (RADU) application and ADU Verification Form are required for all ADU and JADU projects.
Submittal Instructions
