Carports in Huntington are regulated as accessory structures under Chapter 198 and require building permits. Must meet setback and height standards for the zoning district.
Carports are treated as accessory structures in Huntington zoning. A building permit from the Department of Engineering Services is required for construction. Setback requirements mirror those for other accessory structures (typically 5 ft side/rear in residential zones), and carports cannot be located in front yards in most zones. Design must comply with NYS Uniform Building Code for wind and snow load. Historic and architectural review districts may impose additional restrictions.
