What is the zoning of my property, and what are the yard/setback requirements?
The Planning Division maintains a map that shows zoning for every parcel in the City. The map can be viewed in the Planning Division lobby, or anyone can call 215-3034 to speak with a planner regarding specific zoning, setback, and related questions. Typical minimum setbacks in single family neighborhoods are 20 feet for front setbacks, 15 feet for rear setbacks, and side setbacks may vary from 3-6 feet.
