In an R-SE Zone no building or structure shall exceed a height of 35 feet, except for agricultural buildings as set forth in the general provisions. [Ord. 1591 § 226, 2014.]
All buildings and structures, including accessory buildings and structures and any areas used to provide parking space, shall not cover more than 35 percent of the area of the lot. [Ord. 1591 § 227, 2014.]

(b) The distance between a building containing a dwelling unit or accessory living quarters and any other buildings on the same lot shall be not less than 20 feet;
(c) On the rear third of a lot, accessory buildings not containing accessory living quarters (but not stables) may be built to the lot side lines and the lot rear line; provided, not less than 10 feet of the lot rear line shall be free and clear of buildings; and provided further, if the lot rears upon an alley, a garage with a vehicular entrance from the alley shall maintain a distance of not less than 15 feet from the centerline of the alley.
(c) On the rear third of a corner lot, accessory buildings not containing accessory living quarters (but not stables) may be built to the lot interior side line and the lot rear line; provided, if the lot rears upon an alley, a garage with a vehicular entrance from the alley shall maintain a distance not less than 15 feet from the centerline of such alley;
(d) On the rear third of a reverse corner lot, accessory buildings not containing accessory living quarters (but not stables) may be built to the lot interior side line, but no buildings shall be erected closer than 10 feet to the lot rear line unless an alley intervenes, in which case accessory buildings may be built to the lot rear line unless the accessory building is a garage with a vehicular entrance directly from the alley, in which case such building shall maintain a distance of not less than 15 feet from the centerline of the alley;
(e) In all cases the width of the required side yard on the side street side shall be observed. [Ord. 1591 § 228, 2014.]
