Sandy residential setbacks typically require 25 ft front, 8-10 ft side, and 25-30 ft rear yards, with variations by zone and lot configuration.
Sandy zoning ordinance establishes setbacks by district: R-1-10 (10,000 sq ft lots) requires 25 ft front, 8 ft side, 30 ft rear; R-1-8 requires 25/8/25; multifamily zones vary. Corner lots have two front setbacks. Accessory structures may have reduced setbacks (3-5 ft side/rear). Setbacks are measured from the property line to the nearest building projection. Variances require Board of Adjustment approval showing hardship.
