Pageland, SC Building Setbacks & Zoning: Setback Rules (2026)

Appendix A, Article 3, Table 2 of the Pageland Town Code sets the minimum yard and building setback in feet by zoning district. Front setbacks range from 15 feet in R-6, GR, GRR and RC up to 20 feet in R-8, 25 feet in NC, 50 feet in GC, LI and BI, and 0 feet in the CC (central commercial) district. Side setbacks for residential buildings are 10 feet in R-8, R-6 and RC and 10 feet in GC, while non-residential side setbacks run from 10 feet (NC, CC) up to 50 feet (RC nonresidential is 40; LI and BI are 50).

Rear setbacks for residential structures are 15 feet in most districts and 25 feet in GC, while non-residential rear setbacks range from 15 feet (NC) to 50 feet (LI, BI). 5 feet for single-family and duplex homes (15 feet for patio home and townhouse end units, 25 feet for multi-family), and note F sets the R-6 rear yard at 40 feet for multi-family but 15 feet for other residential uses. Section 8-2 layers exceptions on top of the table: corner lots may cut the front yard on the less-important street to half the required distance, but never below 15 feet, and where a majority of a block's existing homes already sit at a different depth, new construction may not vary more than 5 feet from that established average without neighboring owners' written approval.
