   10         (2) As used in this section, the term:
   11         (a) “Accessory dwelling unit” means an ancillary or
   12  secondary living unit, that has a separate kitchen, bathroom,
   13  and sleeping area, existing either within the same structure, or
   14  on the same lot, as the primary dwelling unit. An accessory
   15  dwelling unit may be a manufactured home, so long as the
   16  manufactured home meets all applicable requirements.
   17         (3) A local government shall may adopt an ordinance to
   18  allow accessory dwelling units, without any corresponding
   19  increase in parking requirements, in any area zoned for single
   20  family residential use. Such ordinance may not require that the
   21  owner of a parcel on which an accessory dwelling unit is
   22  constructed reside on such parcel and does not apply to a
   23  planned unit development or a master planned community as those
   24  terms are defined in s. 163.3202(5)(b)2.
   25         (4) An application for a building permit to construct an
   26  accessory dwelling unit must include an affidavit from the

   28  affordable rate to an extremely-low-income, very-low-income,
   29  low-income, or moderate-income person or persons.
   30         (5) Each accessory dwelling unit allowed by an ordinance
   31  adopted under this section which provides affordable rental
   32  housing shall apply toward satisfying the affordable housing
   33  component of the housing element in the local government’s
   34  comprehensive plan under s. 163.3177(6)(f).
   35         (5) An accessory dwelling unit may not be leased for a term
   36  of less than one month.
   37         (6) The owner of a property with an accessory dwelling unit
