The Town of Huntsville is now seeking submissions from qualified designers for designs of Secondary Residential Dwelling Units (SRDU).
The selected designs will allow the Town of Huntsville to offer a complete start-to-finish package that includes not only pre-approved plans, but also all necessary building permit documentation.
The Town of Huntsville initiated the SRDU pre-approved toolkit to provide a complete permit package to offer the following benefits:
- Reduce Friction – Simplify the process for homeowners by minimizing the effort and red tape in a building project – just choose a design and build.
- Boost Adoption – Make participation in the program more appealing by offering a turnkey solution to increase the supply of affordable housing.
- Ensure Quality and Consistency – Standardize design and documentation across all projects.
- Support Designers and Manufacturers – Offer royalties or licensing fees for each package sold, creating a sustainable business model for contributors.
The Town is inviting designers to submit their expression of interest by the deadline of October 31, 2025, at 1:00 p.m. EST. For full details on the requirements of a submission and for more information, please visit huntsville.ca.
