(a) Uncovered patios, rear and side yards: Terraces, patios, porches and decks that are no more than two feet above grade may be built up to the rear or side property line where an established fence line exists. Otherwise, uncovered terraces, patios, porches and decks less than two feet high shall be a minimum of three feet from rear and side property lines. Decks over two feet in height shall meet the setback requirements of the main structure.
(b) Unenclosed structures, front yard: Unenclosed porches, steps or similar facilities may project into a required front setback for a distance not to exceed five feet. In the case of a handicap wheelchair ramp, the Zoning Administrator may waive setback requirements at his or her discretion, if no other options are available to provide a ramp, provided that the applicant agrees to remove the ramp if it is no longer necessary on the property. A performance letter or performance guarantee may be required.
