What are the setback and easement requirements?
Setback requirements are rules adopted by each municipality regulating minimum distance that structures such as pools, decks or houses must be from the edge of your property. The setback requirements adopted by the city or county governing construction in your area will be a major factor in determining how your pool or spa will be laid out on your property. Easement rights are rights of access across your property, typically for electric, telephone or other utility lines. There are a variety of rules and regulations regarding your ability to build or locate permanent structures in an easement.
