Are there location restrictions for sheds and other accessory structures?
Yes. No structures can be placed in the required front yard (the area in front of the front line of your home). Any structures in the side or rear yards must meet a setback requirement equal or greater than 10% of the lot depth and width. For example, a backyard shed on a lot that is 120 feet wide cannot be any closer than 12 feet from either side lot line. If the lot is 250 feet deep, then the structure cannot be placed closer than 25 feet from the rear lot line.
