Boise City Council President Colin Nash Leads Effort to Authorize Tiny Homes in Designated Areas Across the City

Idea Category: Housing

Boise City Council President Colin Nash led the effort to authorize tiny homes in designated areas across the city as a part of a broader effort to address housing access. These “compact” dwellings (no larger than 400 square feet) will now be permitted in all residential zones and some mixed-use areas, offering another cost-effective solution for residents. “We can’t expect everybody to be able to have the white picket fence and the large single-family home,” Council President Colin Nash said. “We have to recognize that people have different circumstances in their lives.”
