Rules & Requirements
There are many considerations to every project such as:
- The types of development permitted in various land use districts (zoning)
- The amount of area on a lot that buildings can cover (site coverage)
- The required distances from property lines and other structures (setbacks)
- How high a building can be in various land use districts (elevation)
- The restriction of building structures over gas lines or other utilities (URWs)
