Coconino County zones unincorporated land under its Zoning Ordinance and sets minimum yards by district. RS single-family lots keep homes about 20 to 25 feet off the front line, 5 to 20 feet at the sides, and 20 to 25 feet at the rear.
The Coconino County Zoning Ordinance fixes minimum setbacks for every district rather than leaving rural land unregulated. In the RS (Residential Single-family) zones a dwelling sits at least 20 feet from the front line - 25 feet on the larger RS-18000 and RS-36000 lots - 5 to 20 feet from an interior side line, and 20 to 25 feet from the rear. The one-acre AR and RR zones use 25-foot front and 20-foot rear yards, and the 10-acre General zone widens to 30 feet all around. Flagstaff, Sedona, Page, and Williams apply their own city zoning setbacks inside their limits. Variances go to the county Board of Adjustment.
Building inside a required yard violates the Zoning Ordinance. Coconino County Community Development can withhold or revoke permits, order correction or removal, and pursue civil enforcement. Relief comes through a variance from the Board of Adjustment.
