(a)
(1) For all purposes under this chapter, zoning ordinances may consider as a permitted accessory use in any single-family residential zoning district on lots zoned for single-family detached dwellings, any temporary family healthcare structures that are:
(A) For use by a caregiver in providing care for a mentally or physically impaired person; and
(B) On property owned or occupied by the caregiver as their residence.
(2) Temporary family healthcare structures shall comply with any local requirements for accessory dwelling structures of this type. Temporary family healthcare structures shall comply with all setback requirements that apply to the primary structure and with any maximum floor area ratio limitations that may apply to the primary structure. Only one (1) temporary family healthcare structure shall be allowed on a lot or parcel of land.
(b) Any person proposing to install a temporary family healthcare structure shall first obtain a permit from the local governing body, for which the local government may charge a fee of up to one hundred dollars ($100). The local government may not withhold such permit if the applicant provides sufficient proof of compliance with this section. The local government may require that the applicant provide evidence of compliance with this section on an annual basis as long as the temporary family healthcare structure remains on the property. This evidence may involve the inspection by the locality of the temporary family healthcare structure at reasonable times convenient to the caregiver, not limited to any annual compliance confirmation.
