The RogueADU Accelerator

The RogueADU Accelerator is a proposed technical assistance program designed to help Ashland homeowners move from idea to permitted ADU faster — with less confusion and lower cost.

Proposed program features

All features below are proposed. None are currently available.

  • Proposed

    One-on-one technical assistance

    A dedicated advisor to guide you through zoning, design, permitting, and construction — from first call to Certificate of Occupancy.

    Pre-approved plan library

    A curated set of ADU plans sized for Ashland lots, pre-reviewed by City Planning, free to download.

    Vetted contractor network

    A list of contractors who have completed ADUs in Ashland, verified by past clients and City permit records.

  • Proposed

    Financing navigation

    Help connecting with the right lender for your situation, including CDFI and credit union partners.

  • Proposed

    Affordability incentives

    Potential incentives for homeowners who commit to renting at below-market rates to local workers.

    Cohort model

    Work alongside other Ashland homeowners going through the same process — shared learning, shared resources.
