In residential districts, the maximum allowable height is 15 feet for accessory structures. Detached accessory structures shall be located behind the required front yard setback and cover no more than 40% of the rear yard area required for the main building. The minimum side yard for accessory structures is 20 feet on corner lots and zero feet on interior lots. No minimum rear yard setback is required, unless the property is a double-frontage lot in which case a 10 foot rear yard setback is required. In the event an accessory building is attached to the main building, it shall be considered structurally a part of the main building and shall comply in all respects with the requirements of this chapter applicable to the main building. Unless so attached, an accessory building in a residential district shall be at least five feet from any dwelling building existing or under construction on the same lot or any adjacent lot. In the case of a corner lot adjacent to a reversed frontage lot, accessory buildings shall not project beyond the front yard required or existing on the adjacent reversed frontage lot.
