Can building projections extend into required yards in the City of Richmond?

Yes, building projections are allowed to extend into required yards, but they must comply with the standards listed in Table 15.04.601.020: Allowed Building Projections into Yards. The table outlines the types of projections permitted, such as balconies, eaves, and porches, as well as any dimensional, area, or other limitations that apply to those structures when they project into the required yard space. Be sure to review the "Limitations" column in the table for specific restrictions. However, please note that roof eaves may extend into the required yard for 100% of the building façade, not 1/3 as indicated in Table 15.04.601.020: Allowed Building Projections Into Yards.
