ARIZONA CASITA BUILDERS · PEORIA
Casita planning
in Peoria.
A Peoria casita can create a quieter place for guests, a parent or another member of the household without giving up the connection to home. Arizona Casita Builders considers the daily route between buildings, light, privacy and usable outdoor space from the start. We then review the proposed footprint against the parcel’s zoning, utilities and permit requirements so the concept is grounded in a workable site plan.

PLANNING YOUR PEORIA CASITA
Start with the parcel.
Then choose the plan.
Confirm City of Peoria jurisdiction and the parcel’s zoning before applying the City’s ADU standards.
Confirm the parcel and primary dwelling meet the ADU use category.
Review lot coverage and height along with the proposed footprint.
Locate existing and planned public utility easements.
Coordinate building, engineering and fire requirements with the design.

A FEW USEFUL STARTING QUESTIONS
Before you
choose a plan.
Use these questions to prepare for a discussion with ACB and the agency that reviews your property.
See how we buildDo Peoria’s ADU standards replace building and fire requirements?+
No. The City’s ADU ordinance expressly works alongside engineering standards, building codes and fire codes. A permitted land use still needs a coordinated construction and site-review process.
Can the casita be placed over a utility easement?+
Peoria’s ADU ordinance addresses encroachment on existing or planned public utility easements and calls for written consent from affected parties when applicable. We locate easements early and resolve conflicts before selecting the building position.
Can I customize an ACB concept for my Peoria property?+
Yes. Our original layouts are starting points for a property-specific design. We review the footprint, orientation, privacy, utility connections and desired finishes with you before developing the final scope.
