I have this now:

I'd like to add a utility sink on the right side, like this:

Is that proper/legal or does the sink's p-trap need to be tied into the vent separately as well? I'm guessing no.

Update - I found this. Would it be ok?

Each trap will need it's own venting. Especially for a washer and laundry tray.

Thanks for the reply. Does this count as dedicated venting for each?
You can put a cleanout above the santee, rather than low like you have it now. That frees up space for the laundry drain.

Hey, wait a minute.

This is awkward, but...
