How close to my property line may I place my shed?

In all zoning districts except R1, accessory structures must be placed a minimum of three (3) feet from alleys and lot lines and may not be placed within the required minimum front yard (front yard setbacks vary by zoning district). If a shed is intended to be placed closer than five (5) feet to your property line, the property owner must provide a manufacturer's spec sheet showing that the shed is made from fire-rated construction materials. For corner lots, any accessory structure must meet the ninimum side yard requirements along the side of the street that is not the front lot line.
