Subsection 134-1-5-4 - Building Setbacks

Placement of new building construction shall conform to and respect established building lines along city streets within the District, reinforcing the street edge and maintaining a cohesive campus environment. Where prescribed front setbacks would create a non-conforming situation that would be visually conflicting with greater than 50% of the existing structures within the block, the Commission may elect to waive or modify the setback requirements.

Building setbacks shall be as defined in the City of Augusta ordinance except as follows:

A. Sewall Street
(1) 35 feet front setback within the State Development (SD), Capitol Complex Historic (CC), and Western Gateway (WG) zones.
(2) 25 feet front setback within the Residential (R) zone.
(3) Side and rear setbacks as per City of Augusta ordinance.
