Citrus Heights rules that affect a multigen adu

Citrus Heights multigenerational builds are designed single-level and accessible — zero-step entry, wider doorways, curbless showers — so parents or adult kids live independently next door. Sacramento County permits these like any detached or attached ADU.

Local permitting: Citrus Heights runs its own Building Division with standard 4 ft setbacks and a 16 ft height limit. Its established 1960s–80s neighborhoods have generous lots and almost no HOA overlay, making it one of the least restrictive ADU markets in the region.

That's the multigen adu-specific picture. For the full Sacramento County rulebook — every setback, height, and owner-occupancy detail — see our Sacramento-region ADU rules guide, and learn how the build type works statewide on our multigenerational adu page.
