        "text": "Yes. Building an addition in Salt Lake City and across Salt Lake County requires adhering to specific residential zoning codes, which establish mandatory front, side, and rear yard setbacks, as well as maximum lot coverage limits. In historic neighborhoods such as Sugar House or the Avenues, design guidelines and footprint restrictions can be tighter than in newer subdivisions in Riverton or South Jordan. Reviewing your lot survey early ensures your planned room or bump-out fits within legal property line allowances.",
