What are the permit requirements for sheds that are smaller than 100 square feet?
Sheds not exceeding 100 square feet and 10 feet in height do not require a Building Permit as long as the setback requirements as set forth for the given zone are met.


There shall be a maximum of two sheds per lot. All sheds must meet lot area occupancy requirements. Set backs for under 100 square foot sheds include:

  • Zone A and AA - 2 feet from the side and rear property lines and 50 feet from the front property line

  • Zone B and C - 2 feet from the side and rear property lines, 40 feet from the front property line


All sheds must meet building area requirements or will be required to go before the Zoning Board of Appeals for a variance. See the Rules for Sheds, Decks, Fences and Pools
