Weston, FL Building Setbacks & Zoning: Structure Height Limits (2026)

Section 124.47(A)'s dimension table lists a uniform 35-foot maximum height for every single-family district, R1, R2, R3, R4, RE, and RZ alike, even though those same districts vary in minimum lot size, frontage, and setbacks. Multi-family districts scale differently: MF1 and MF2 cap out at 35 and 50 feet respectively, MF3 reaches 100 feet, and MF4 reaches 150 feet, reflecting the larger minimum acreage those districts require. Nonresidential districts carry their own limits in the same table, ranging from 35 feet in the I-1 industrial and C-1 commercial districts up to 65 feet in the O-1 office district and 95 feet in the HZ district, with parking structures and garages in HZ capped separately at 60 feet under section 124.47(A)(1)(d)2.

Section 124.49 then carves out a narrow height exclusion: non-illuminated, non-moving architectural features, vertical attachments above the structure's roofline, and flagpoles, none of which count as part of the structure itself, may exceed the otherwise-permissible height limit in a nonresidential district by not more than 25 percent. That exclusion does not extend to residential districts or to the structure's habitable floor area. Accessory structures on residential lots face a separate, lower ceiling: section 124.36(H)(3) caps accessory structures in residential districts at 12 feet, regardless of the 35-foot limit that applies to the principal single-family home on the same lot.
