Henderson limits lot coverage by zoning district. Residential districts typically limit lot coverage to 50-60%. The development code specifies what counts as lot coverage and how pervious vs. impervious surfaces are calculated.
Maximum lot coverage varies by zoning district. Single-family residential districts generally allow up to 50% lot coverage. Coverage includes building footprints, driveways, and other impervious surfaces. Some districts may allow higher coverage with conditions. Landscaping requirements in the development code affect available buildable area. The Board of Adjustment hears variance requests.
Exceeding lot coverage limits may result in permit denial and required removal of excess impervious surfaces.
