Additional requirements for setbacks from watercourses and all roads identified in the highway deficiency report and countywide capital improvement program, setbacks between structures on the same site, and setbacks in other situations are established by Section 17.54.140 (Exceptions to front, street-side, side and rear setbacks) and by Article 17.56 for certain specific land uses.

S-7, S-8, S-9, S-10, S-11, T-11, U-11) are seven and one-half feet
on each side for single-story structures, 10 feet on each side for
two-story structures and 15 feet on each side for structures with
three or more stories, due to special problems created by snow accumulations
in those areas. NOTE: These setbacks, in previous paragraph number
(3) above, are not applicable to the Lake Tahoe Basin area, Squaw
Valley General Plan area, and the Serene Lakes/Ice Lakes area, which
have their own land use ordinances and plan area statements. Refer
