The Backyard Builders Program aims to help homeowners finance, design, permit, and construct accessory dwelling units, known as granny flats, on their properties.
This initiative provides financial assistance through a 0 percent interest, 30-year loan of up to $250,000 for eligible homeowners to create ADUs.
The program encourages affordable housing by requiring homeowners to rent their ADUs at rates that meet income limits, prioritizing those with Housing Authority vouchers.
Mayor Rex Richardson emphasized the program's commitment to providing more affordable housing options and increasing housing production in Long Beach.
