ADU rules in Mililani Town, HI β also called accessory dwelling unit regulations or granny flat ordinances β cover setbacks, owner-occupancy, parking, and permit requirements.
Mililani Town homeowners may build one ADU per zoning lot under ROH Sec. 21-5.720, but HOA covenants and association design rules often impose additional restrictions on top of city code.
Under ROH Sec. 21-5.720, one ADU is allowed per zoning lot in Country, R-3.5, R-5, R-7.5, R-10, and R-20 districts, covering Mililani Town residential neighborhoods. Rentals must be 30 days or longer. However, Mililani Town's master-planned community is governed by the Mililani Town Association (MTA) and individual neighborhood associations whose CC&Rs may restrict or prohibit ADUs, accessory rentals, and exterior modifications even when zoning allows them. Homeowners must obtain both city permits and HOA approval. After-the-fact permits may be available for pre-September 2015 units.
Unpermitted ADUs face city enforcement and potential daily fines; HOA violations can trigger association fines and legal action.
