Town of Essex provides a guide to secondary dwelling units, see attached. Typically the municipality will allow for 3 units on one property, (One located in the main dwelling and one ADU).

Laneway Homes will work directly with the town to ensure you comply – OR – you can call the planning staff at town hall for specific questions regarding your property.
