Hi Mr. Martin, First of all, I am not trying to get this approved as an ADU. We did not list the house that way, we listed as a SFR. My mom was living with me and she was unable to walk upstairs to get into the house and I wasn't going to have her open the garage door every time she was coming in or out. I enclosed the garage door and put in a regular door in its place. I converted a family room into a kitchen by moving the receptacles to counter level and adding a receptacle for a stove, counters, cabinets, and a sink. Besides filling in the garage door, nothing structural was done. I've heard of plenty of houses having a second kitchen. I'm not sure why this is being considered an ADU. It would be most helpful if you just let me know what exactly needs to be done to remedy this situation.
