Permitting in Kimberly
Kimberly (population ~4,600) is under 10,000, so the SB 1354 mandate does not bind it — but Kimberly's own Title 17 code affirmatively allows ADUs in its residential zones, subject to Planning & Zoning Commission approval. ADU size is tiered by lot size (1,000-1,600 sq ft). A $1,180 per-unit city impact fee applies. We confirm the full picture during the Feasibility Check.

Idaho ADU Law and Kimberly

That is exactly what our Feasibility Check verifies for your parcel. (Idaho HB 166 separately protects an internal ADU on an owner-occupied homestead from HOA bans.) Learn more about Idaho ADU law →
