Can anyone tell me what the bldg setbacks for a home in San Jose, CA area are?
Answers:
Both your county and city will have adopted, and likely modified, one of several model planning and zoning codes. Current regulations are available at your county or city planning & zoning office. You may also find the same information at your local building inspectors office.
If you live in a subdivision, it is likely that the developer registered a set of subdivision regulations that may further restrict the use of your property. These are normally called "deed restrictions" and are available for review at your county courthouse. The recorders office maintains these records and they should be readily available.
It pays to do your homework before you start construction. It can be very expensive to be forced to comply with the regulations after the fact.
Good luck with your building project.
