State law challenges Somerville triple-deckers

New Massachusetts law permits the construction of accessory dwelling units (ADUs) in single-family zones, with local governments unable to restrict their height or size. In Somerville, this has raised concerns about the potential appearance of three-story "tiny" triple-deckers in backyards due to a legislative quirk, though no such structures have been built. The city fears losing control over its housing landscape, as regulations imply these small, tall homes may need to be allowed, despite their impracticality and the unlikely construction of such buildings.
