Small Cabin First...Bigger House Later

[buster]

Just to follow up, I spoke with a very helpful person in planning who said that yes, its do-able (permitable) that the garage and guest house (ohana? whatever) can be in the same accesory building. The constraints are to keep the footprint less than 500 sq. ft. (to comply with its future designation) and the height (a bit harder to do) under 20 feet which is the maximum ht for an accesory building. Now I'm re thinking the idea since I have an acre to play with I don't need to concentrate both together, I still think its a nice option.
