Hello everyone
I was wondering if/how anyone else controls residential accessory building size? The requirements in our by-law state that residential accessory buildings can not exceed 70 square metres (thats about 750 square feet) in total lot coverage. This was designed to be in place to prevent people from building large buildings in our rural areas and opening businesses etc. However, the last few years we have had so many people request larger buildings for all their toys that we need to revise this section. So does anyone control accessory building size in a similar fashion, for similar reasons? And if so, what are your regulations?
