        "text": "An Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) is a secondary housing unit on a single-family residential lot. Common uses include providing independent living space for family members, serving as a home office, or generating rental income. ADUs are typically smaller than the primary residence and can be attached to the existing home, built as a standalone structure in the backyard, or created by converting an existing garage or other space.",
