The maximum permitted height for structures in Galloway is generally 35 feet. Along Jimmie Leeds Road the cap rises to 45 feet within 100 feet of the road, increasing five feet for each additional 100 feet of setback.
Galloway Township's Land Management Ordinance (Chapter 233) sets a base maximum building height of 35 feet across most districts, measured per the code's definition of height. A corridor exception applies near Jimmie Leeds Road: the maximum is 45 feet for buildings within 100 feet of the road, and the allowable height increases five feet for every additional 100 feet the structure is set back from Jimmie Leeds Road. District-specific bulk tables control the exact figure for your zone, so confirm the applicable maximum with the Zoning Office before designing added stories or a tall accessory building.
Exceeding the district height limit is a zoning violation; a permit will be denied, and a Zoning Board height variance is required to build taller.
