To support building more housing faster and reducing associated costs and permitting time, WHRM has prepared a variety of fast-track housing plans for the public to use free of charge. Using fast-track plans can save time and costs associated with drawing custom plans. These plans include accessory dwelling units, single and two unit dwellings as well as a classic row house option. You can find the catalog of housing designs on our Housing Accelerator Fund page under Action #6. Building plans will be available upon request at the time of permitting.
