the set backs are not the homeowners property and are much greater distance than most homeowners realize. The homeowner cannoy build any permant type structures within the set back. Shrubs and other non permanent items are permitted but it must be understood that within the easement limits anything required to maintain drainage, utilities, etc is possible without the homeowners permission. I believe my set back distance is 32 feet from the edge of the street.
