Major Road Setbacks

A setback is the distance between a structure and the property line or the centerline of a major roadway. The setback requirement varies depending on your zoning classification and road adjacency. When an unincorporated parcel is bounded by a road or roads that are in the jurisdiction of a city, the Land Use Department does not impose the supplementary setbacks on that parcel. The Land Use Department requests that the property owner contacts the city for the supplementary setback information for safety reasons.
