How do I calculate the allowable footage of a garage (attached or detached), roofed covered porches, pool houses, and all other roofed sheds or storage structures?
To calculate the allowable square footage of these roofed structures, please refer to Village Code Zoning Chapter Section 502 B (b)(iii) and c on page 32. This section states that you are allowed an extra 15% of the square footage that is actually built to be applied to accessory roofed structures. If the house you built was smaller then the allowable square footage, you can add 30% of the unbuilt allowable square footage to the 15% from the house. Ex: You are allowed to build a 5,000 sf house. You only build a 4,000 sf house. You have 1,000 sf of unbuilt allowable sf.
