Storage sheds can aesthetically affect both the individual property and the neighborhood by concealing many clutter objects such as garden tools, trash cans, bicycles, etc. However, an inconsistently placed or poorly designed storage shed can visually negate an otherwise desirable residential area. As a result, all storage sheds should be compatible with both the architecture and the landscape surrounding the house.
a. Location. Sheds will only be permitted in rear yard locations which shall be fully enclosed by a 6'0" high fence on all perimeters.
b. Design. Sheds shall be designed as an integral part of fencing. The architectural design of the shed must be compatible with the design of the fence, whether the fence is existing or to be built with the shed.
c. Materials. The finish material of the shed walls must be the same as the finish material used on the fence.
d. Colors. The color scheme must be identical to that used on the fence.
e. Roof. The highest point of the roof of the shed must not exceed the height of the fence allowing for a flat or sloped roof. Roofing material and color shall be approved by the ARB.
f. Size. Maximum shed size shall not exceed a plan area of 25 square feet.
All applications must include the following information:
a. Site plan showing the relationship to the adjacent house and property lines.
b. Picture and/or detailed drawing of the shed to include dimensions.
c. Description of materials used.
d. Estimated start date and estimated completion date in terms of days after start, not to exceed 90 days.
