I already have an ADU but now I want to make it legal OR I am purchasing a property that asserts there is an ADU, how do I know if it's legal?

ADUs require a certificate of occupancy prior to use. You can obtain a copy of the certificate of occupancy for any property from Inspectional Services by emailing inspections@worcesterma.gov with the address for the property. If you don't have an occupancy certificate indicating the property has an ADU, the space that is being thought of as an ADU is not yet "legal."
