(Huntsville, ON) The Town of Huntsville is now seeking submissions from qualified designers for designs of Secondary Residential Dwelling Units (SRDU).

-
Reduce Friction - Simplify the process for homeowners by minimizing the effort and red tape in a building project - just choose a design and build.
-
Boost Adoption - Make participation in the program more appealing by offering a turnkey solution to increase the supply of affordable housing.
-
Ensure Quality and Consistency - Standardize design and documentation across all projects.
-
Support Designers and Manufacturers - Offer royalties or licensing fees for each package sold, creating a sustainable business model for contributors.
