Location of Structures Clause Samples
The 'Location of Structures' clause defines where buildings or other improvements may be placed on a property. It typically sets boundaries or setbacks from property lines, easements, or other features, and may require approval for the placement of new structures. This clause ensures that structures are sited in accordance with zoning laws, community standards, or development plans, helping to prevent disputes and maintain orderly development.
Location of Structures. All dwellings or outbuildings in the Subdivision shall be erected wholly within the Lot lines and no closer to the Driveways than the buildings or structures on the adjacent Lots, if any. A front yard setback line of seventy-five (75) feet measured from the nearest edge of the Driveway to the facia or the front entrance of a building or structure is established on each Lot. A side yard set back ten (10) from the side of a building or structure and the side Lot lines are established on each Lot. A rear yard for each Lot is measured from the facia of the back of the building on a Lot to the rear Lot line. If approved by the Architectural Control Committee or the Association, and subject to applicable laws and regulations, roof overhangs, gutters, bay windows, chimneys, patios, open porches, decks, walk ways, driveways and shrubbery may extend into the front yard setback. Any side yard which faces the front yard of any adjacent Lot shall have a setback of seventy-five (75) feet.

Location of Structures. The location of a structure is at the discretion of the Head of Parks and Service Facilities through liaison with the Warden or the Leisure Inspectors. For guidance it is recommended that structures are sited to the rear of a plot and certainly in line with other structures within the site. In order to keep the allotment tidy, you are reminded that old doors, window frames and scrap metal are not to be brought onto the allotment sites. All greenhouses, sheds, compost bins and cold frames should be kept in good repair. Ownership, security and safety of the structure(s) remain the responsibility of the allotment tenant. If and when the tenancy is terminated the Council shall not be liable for any compensation for removal or demolition of any structure that the tenant has erected on the land. GOSPORT BOROUGH COUNCIL BEE KEEPING ON ALLOTMENTS Not all allotment sites are necessarily suitable for beekeeping and the Council will consider each application on its merits. The beekeeper must be a paid up Member of a local beekeeping association affiliated to the British Bee Keepers Association. This Membership carries public liability insurance of up to £5m should there be loss or damage as a consequence of the bee keeping. The beekeeper must demonstrate experience in the handling of bees and will not be permitted to keep bees on an allotment in his first year of beekeeping. The beekeeper must demonstrate that they have obtained, or are studying for, a formal qualification in bee keeping (such as the BBA "Basic Assessment" examination or equivalent) which demonstrates competence in management and manipulation of bees. There shall be no more than two hives on any one allotment plot, or one "nuc" (small colony) per beekeeper. The total number of hives that can be accommodated on any particular allotment site will depend on the size of the site and will be assessed by the Council on case by case basis. The location of hives needs to be carefully selected so as to minimise inconvenience to those around, whether neighbours or passers by and must be agreed with the Council. They would usually be located in a quiet corner of the site or towards the centre of an allotment plot, so that they are not too close to other plot holders, neighbouring houses or paths. All hive equipment is to carry a suitable mark identifying its owner Bees are to be encouraged to fly at a good height (i.e. above head height) by surrounding the hives with a 2-metre high fence or similar boundary; (b...
